It is against the rules but but what is it exactly?
Spreading Linux misinformation is saying things about Linux that aren’t true.
Examples:
These can be jokes or trolling like “You can save space by removing the system’s pre-installed French language pack by running
sudo rm -fr /” (disclaimer don’t do this!)Or misconceptions, such as “You probably don’t have a virus even if you suspect it, due to Linux’s nature viruses aren’t possible” (you absolutely can)
I have seen that code block so many times, but never with the options switch around so it stands for french 😂 Thankfully in most cases these days you need to add
--no-preserve-rootfor this command to run.deleted by creator
I don’t think these things are universal across software, but you can often put
-fon its own, separate from other flags, or get in the habit of using the long--forceflag.deleted by creator
