- 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.
3. Post Linux-related content

sudoin Windows. - No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
4. No recent reposts

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.

What I've noticed is that System76 doesn't have as good of QA process compared to something like Linux Mint or Fedora. Not to say that it is bad but that's my personal experience.
I don't disagree with that. They're also a much smaller group so I think it just stands to reason.
But I do appreciate that they're taking chances (probably for the same reason). Cosmic is quite impressive already and a good alternative to Gnome/KDE/Cinnamon; better than the Pop Shell on Gnome.
Edit: a word
Am I crazy for finding this unnecessary? I've never cared about an edited comment, let alone the reason why a person edited it.
IMO from personal experience I tend to half care.
I personally wouldn't leave in, "Edit: a word," but if I change the substance of a comment in any meaningful way I like to leave an edit to say what changed.
Particularly for when someone already replied to my comment or may already be replying to my comment. I would be afraid of accidentally trying to gaslight someone lol.
This one makes sense actually.
Maybe it is. I always considered it a courtesy since otherwise it can be difficult to see what was edited. It's from my reddit days.
Just to be clear, I'm in no way judging, but just wondering. :)
Yep yep, I didn't take offense. Tbh idk why I still do it. Just habit I guess.
Edit: I made an edit but I won't say what it was. :)
And that's 100% ok.
