Good. Also good to see a lot of other subreddits are going dark. Been using Lemmy for just a few hours, and I do not miss Reddit one bit anymore.

Lemmy can be a bit slow, especially with remote communities.

But damn, if Reddit’s only option is the new UI there’s no way I’ll ever use it.

I’ve made the transition from Reddit to Lemmy so much more seamlessly than I did from Twitter to Mastodon. The percentage of Lemmy users that post high quality content & comments is much higher than Reddit, and a forum-based platform doesn’t really need many users to be useful, it just needs users who post content and interact meaningfully with one another.

Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Rules

  • Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel. GNU/Linux or otherwise.
  • No misinformation
  • No NSFW content
  • No hate speech, bigotry, etc
