Reddiquette, trolling, or poor discussion - r/linux asks all users follow Reddiquette. This rule can also apply to comments, including overdone jokes, comment-chain jokes, or other redditisms that are popular elsewhere. Feel free to post over at /r/linuxmemes instead.

No memes, image macros, rage comics, overdone jokes - Meme posts of any kind are not allowed in r/linux. Please see: r/linux/wiki/rules/banneddomains If there's another discussion on the topic, the link is welcome to be submitted as a top level comment to aid the previous discussion. Some reasons for removal are that they contain re-hosted content, usually paired with privacy-invading ads. Posts that are identified as either blog-spam, a link aggregator, or an otherwise low-effort website are to be removed. No spamblog submissions - Posts should be submitted using the original source with the original title. Looking for a distro? Try r/findmeadistro. No support requests - This is not a support forum! Head to /r/linuxquestions or /r/linux4noobs for support or help. All rules will be applied regardless of the number upvotes a post/comment has. Please review full details on rules here.
