  • I completely disagree with B. What I usually see people (including myself) are annoyed about is stuff like images of posts of people saying (mostly US-) political stuff that most people on lemmy agree with (e.g. “trump is stupid”).

    For A, you could just think about whether your post might be more suitable in another community. Does it merely include politics indirectly, or is some political message the whole point of your post.







  • Eh, it’s a teensy bit harder, since you have to remember what -S means, rather than the easy to remember and plain English ‘install’. But, yeah, not much of a difference.

    Thanks! I initially thought about writing this in my comment in parentheses, but then didn’t do because it would’ve made the comment longer, and I’m not sure if other people want to read the pedantic truth anyways. I’m glad you filled this void.


    The instructions for installing on ubuntu only work because of ubuntu’s popularity. Also if you can copy-paste commands, you can also just follow build instructions. In arch, these commands are in the PKGBUILD, you don’t have to copy them manually. Plus you have the knowledge that you’ll have something that you can also deinstall later. Applications’ websites usually don’t have uninstallation instructions.
