- Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html
2. Be civil
- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
- Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
- Bigotry of any kind will not be tolerated. This is an LGBTQ+-friendly community -- if that is a problem for you, you should leave.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.
- Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of
sudoin Windows. - No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
- Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves / tolerates / hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures
We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations. - Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.

Please report posts and comments that break these rules!
Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

Why? I really enjoyed Mankato while slowly breaking it (Arch is just not for people like me)
Both.
Debian for anything that has to run unattended for a long time without requiring much care. Arch for the desktop.
Ubuntu Server LTS on my first-ever server. I'mma green rook at this. I'm amazed at how quickly and easily Casa was to get up and running on an old laptop.
I still got a long ways to go before I can try Debian for a server.
Debian is just Ubuntu without all the annoying parts.
She best answer Kinonite. Easy effort, and it's as fresh as we need. Leaving plenty of time to make sweet, sweet love. (cue Barry White soundtrack)
openSUSE.
I would answer debian, but I want her to say arch.
I want my girlfriend to be smarter than me ok!?
Whenever I hear Debian, I always imagine a newb OS called Nubian and damn that'd slap as a name.
All text would be in Papyrus font.

You mean an African distro?
Why not-a? It-a worked for Nana Bou's African bistro-a!

This hurts because Debian is named after a couple (Debra Lynn and Ian Murdock) who got married and divorced and Ian passed away. Going with Debian is a lifetime of hurt.
On the other hand Arch girls are described in Rick James's song "Superfreak".
and yet... their names are immortalized... it wouldnt surprise me if debian is still around in 50 years
Arch. I'm still having nightmares from trying to install up to date versions of user-space software onto Debian in 2008-ish, usually leading to having to compile it from source, usually leading to having many compiler errors due to make and GCC being quite a few versions behind. All the help I got in those days through forums are links to WinXP ISO torrents, and telling me that to stop ruining their "hobby OS".
"Debian or Arch?"
Get out you corporate sellout!
spoiler
RPMs are better than DEBs
I'm fine with .ebuild and .xbps, thnx.
Yeah I get some good RPMs on my 2001 Honda Civic.
Elaborate.
Me: "Numbers or mechanics?"
Is this like asking if looking for a fling or a long term relationship?
Impotent or idempotent ?
Hence why so many of us are gay for each other.
I thought it was because we're all femboys and trans catgirls.
Nah I'm just a boring old homo

She's just baffled that anyone who knows those two distributions could be so dense as to whittle down the vast infinite sea of possible options to just two incredibly boring ones. She would have cried next if he hadn't done it.
Also, OpenSUSE.
