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.

- 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

4. No recent reposts

It's all fun and games until you try to use Linux and spend 3 months trying to figure out how to do something like setting up digital 5.1 audio or how to get your graphics drivers to actually work properly
Tell me you haven't tried to use Linux in a decade without telling me you haven't tried to use Linux in a decade.
I use it both for my home teather PC and for my work PC and I consistently run into those kind of issues
Not plausible. You are either lying or lack the skill and experience for handling your system, the latter of which would be okay if you were to admit it.
"git gud", the exact rhetoric that causes people to stay away from Linux and in the hands of Microsoft despite them making their products worse year over year
Took you 3 months to type "sudo apt install nvidia"?
And this is why average joes hates Linux and its communities.
Your elitist attitude is off the chart dude.
It's only natural, really. When you get used to putting the brainpower into learning it as if it were breakfast, you feel frustrated when someone comes around putting a tenth of the effort and acting like the world is weighing on them. Then you tend to forget that most people choose something else to put that effort into, same as they forget that you chose this.
Yeah because the Nvidia drivers work totally fine and have no issues whatsoever
I think you mean sudo pacman -Syu mesa
