With all the refugees from Reddit seeking better places on the internet, I figured I would go ahead and create a community here for Furries who use, or are interested in, Linux to come, hang out, and ask questions.
Whether you are a newbie just starting out, or a seasoned pro who just finished compiling Gentoo, all Linux Furs are welcome here! :)
(I'll come up with some concrete-ish rules later. Just follow the instance rules for now and you'll be fine)
