- 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
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.

Sideline him by giving him a android phone with the paid nova launcher.
I don't use arch, but this applies to my android habits.
Nova has way too many settings now, though.
I use gestures and look&feel and that's about it. Custom icons here and there. Maybe my app drawer has custom folders, colors, tabs. And maybe my folders use custom gestures, transparency, and colors, and icons.
But that's it.
On Linux I use the fuck out of custom aliases for basic commands like ls or grep or less - mainly for appearance.
This is the most useful alias to me personally: ls='ls -aph --color=always --group-directories-first'
I’m in this picture and I don’t like it..
... I've been using nova for like, 14 years. It's not complex. Now if you want a lot of options, FairEmail will overload your brain. Which I also have...
Backing up config files is actually a lifesaver.
