    What’s wrong with this one?

      I don’t want to clutter up a general purpose community with tech support questions. I think of the general topic ones to be more about News or history topics.

        I don’t think there’s enough traffic here that it needs to be separated.

        !linuxquestions@lemmy.zip

        and

        !linux4noobs@programming.dev

        both seem to have quite a few users. Maybe they’d work for you?

          Those look good. I’ll post my questions there before cluttering up this one.

            I think any active community would be more than happy to help, tbh. The thing about the Linux community is that we love troubleshooting. That’s half the fun of Linux, honestly. I would pick something more active over something more specific. Some of the communities here have latest posts dated weeks ago.

    We’re pretty active on any of the Linux subs on larger instances like lemmy.ml or Lemmy.world

      I would recommend staying far away from lemmy.ml

    There are communities for pretty much anything tech-related. Search for the topic of your question (Linux, servers, gaming etc).

    Good question. Some are saying that you won’t get enough eyeballs on dedicated support forums, but by that logic we should just have one community called “General” which the whole world can spam freely on any topic. Personally I don’t want to have to wade through obscure threads about command syntax here, I want to read news about Linux.

    By the way, if ever you want to discuss that subject, please consider doing it here rather than at lemmy.ml! There are more users there but IMO this is a better home for the flagship Linux community.
