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 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 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, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.

    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.

    I feel so called out, even though I'm the second box and I currently use tumbleweed.

    I feel like I'm kinda somewhere in between tech conservative and paranoid. I am privacy conscious but I don't engage in privacy related content too often. I use Arch, Manjaro, /e/OS on a fairphone with mostly foss apps and decline most cookies I can. I also like self hosted things just because the corporate SaaS stuff sucks over time with artificial restrictions and has no privacy

    What a ride!

    This. Is. Epic.

    [–] Th4tGuyII@fedia.io 6 points 1 week ago

    I'd say I'm tech conservative/cynic with a bit of normie - as I've long accepted that forgoing big tech completely means losing the ability to talk to most of my friends and relatives (because there's zilch chance of me convincing them to move away)

    At some point I just need to jump off the ship and live full time Linux. I remember my Linux friend from high school telling me how cool gentoo was back in 2k3, and I got a disk and was like wtf… what do I do??? I need to try it again.

    [–] deathbird@mander.xyz 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

    Try one of the distros in the second panel next time.

    Newborn paranoid is actually me πŸ’€

    [–] Aba@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (4 children)

    I am a newborn paranoid who "watch Luke Smith" and think "Richard Stallman was right".

    I'm less familiar with the icons starting at around section 4 onwards.

    Could anyone share / link what some of them are?

    [–] mugdad1@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    after that arch and its distros lastlsy temple os and holy c you can search about them

    [–] otter@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 week ago

    I see, thank you!

    [–] mugdad1@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    after that emacs and fsf things

    [–] Faresh@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 week ago

    The FSF-approved distributions that are shown are: Trisquel, Parabola and GNU Guix (this one is actually quite neat, it's based on NixOS with its own ideas like the importance of being able to bootstrap an entire system from a minimal binary seed)

    The browser with logo shown is GNU IceCat, with binary blobs removed and with some extra security and privacy features (among them an addon that prevents the browser from running proprietary javascript)

    lynx is a simple TUI web browser and w3m also is a similar browser but running in GNU Emacs

    The last three are all the GNU Emacs logo.

    tails gentoo tor irc chat with self hosting 4

    [–] Faresh@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

    Between IRC and the picture representing the idea of self-hosting, there's the XMPP logo, which like IRC, is an instant messaging protocol (but with more features than IRC).

    I live on the right side of the second box, between second and third. I venture into the fourth maybe once or twice a year. It is a good life.

    I'm a bit of 2,3 and 4.

    Not sure what I fall under πŸ˜… I want privacy and will pay for it, but I won't go all the way to a pure GNU OS where only certain open-source is allowed. IMO buying a new Pixel phone for GrapheneOS is still contributing to Google and does more harm than good.
