Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
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 sudo in 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.

5. 🇬🇧 Language/язык/Sprache

This is primarily an English-speaking community. 🇬🇧🇦🇺🇺🇸

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.

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.

We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.

Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.

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.

Neither of which run well on Linux. Don't use proprietary software when there are other options

I've been running Discord just fine on Linux. It's just a web wrapper, after all. What issues have you been having with it?

Screen share on Wayland is completely broken

Armcord has a plugin fix for that I believe!

Armcord doesn't have global keybinds yet though (no push to talk/mute toggle unless you are tabbed into armcord) which is even worse imo

From what I've read online that's a problem with Wayland not Discord.

Discord was not made for Wayland and has failed to provide an update

Recently it's stopped opening links in my browser and won't let me upload files to discord.

Last time I tried Viber, it ran fine on Linux, what issues have you had with it?

Discord also works pretty well, minus the white flashing when scrolling through GIFs for me

Viber and Discord aren't free (libre) software and should be avoided. I've never ran them because of that reason. However, I've heard lots of complaints of proprietary mainstream applications not being great on Linux.

"Neither of which run well on Linux."

"I've never ran them because of that reason."

Yikes.

I had a problem with Viber on Linux, it crashed when picking up or starting a call, but that was quickly fixed.

Admittedly haven't tried calling with it, that being said I still need to reinstall it on my main laptop (only recently switched to Linux on that, was using an old laptop with Linux before that), so I'll try some stuff again

Not really. It technically uses a heavy modified kernel but that's about it
