Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
    •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    It's already lost. Lemmy is mainly now just users that hate reddit (the company itself). It doesn't have the same far-left/progressive and tech loving atmosphere it did only a few months ago.

    edit: And yes, I do understand most of the population is moderate/centrist and not fans of free and open source software.

    Yeah, I've noticed that change as well. It was fun while it lasted.

    There just isn't enough content. Yes, some interesting info and shared links, but I like my social media mixed up, as in, some serious thread, then a few jokes/shitposts, then some more serious threads. There isn't enough of that any more.

    And the rules in most funny/shitpost comms are kinda strict when it comes to comedy. So I just stopped posting stuff all together on most comms, except a few.
