Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • 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 will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 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 sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

  • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    My guess is: Too outdated packages. Debian experimental fixes this, but it's not noob friendly to enable those. And flatpack is too recent.

    This was the one for me, was running Debian a few years ago, I was really happy with how everything worked.

    But at work I noticed a lot of tools I needed where pretty old. Like an old version of maven or an old version of Firefox or npm.

    You can probably work around it, but I just went back to Mint again.

    It's gotten better uith flatpak, or if you can handle it: distrobox.
