submitted 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

The changes made to community are withdrawn because users opinions . But from now on when making a post your first word on tge title should be [NOT FOSS] or [FOSS] respectively. Also i have no intention in anything expect help new users find foss apps i hope you all understand that.

On a sidenote, could you please restore the poll post, just for archive purposes?

Seems better to keep those kind of discussions around if the question comes up again.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 8 months ago

I second this. Despite the reversion of the proposed changes, I am still concerned with the lack of transparency and disappointed at how the recent situation has been generally handled.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Thanks for hearing us and continuing to allow all types of apps here. FOSS is an amazing model for some projects, but some of us simply want to protect the rights of what we create or we’re looking at other models to help Lemmy become more sustainable

[–] [email protected] -2 points 8 months ago

No prob as i said guys like you are the main reason that is stopping me from making it foss only.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

Seems fair to me.

Seems like an improvement. Curious what other people will say, I guess it might still seem unfair to have such a distinction, as I guess FOSS apps wouldn't have to be tagged.

If I were a closed source dev, I might ask if my app is welcome here, and to Lemmy as a whole.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

No foss will have to be marked too

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

Ah I see, thanks for the clarification and the edit

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago (2 children)

My goal is to help lemmy newbie's to foss apps and nothing else.

So are you okay with 3 of the top 10 posts in this community being about Sync and Boost?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Yes whatever just mark foss or not foss from now on .

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Also why wouldn't i be ? I would love to know your thought process.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I read your comment as "I want newbies to only find FOSS apps", while I guess you meant "I only want to help newbies find FOSS apps"

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

I "meant" what i said and what i said is :

Also i have no intention in anything expect help new users find foss apps i hope you all understand that.

If you pull things out of context it becomes weird . Until now i have respectfully debated with you please don't pull cheap tricks in the last minute and lose my respect.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

"My goal is to help lemmy newbie’s to foss apps and nothing else."

Your sentence could be interpreted in two ways, depending on what the "nothing else" refers to, as I stated above.

I'm not pulling any cheap trick, I'm just explaining to you how your sentence could be understood in two different ways

[–] [email protected] -2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (2 children)

Before that i said "i have no intention and is doing this to help newbie's to find foss apps and nothing else" so in context everyone can understand what i meant ( expect maybe you ) so you are pulling things out of context and quoting me to make me look like an asshole and that is not nice.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago (1 children)

i have no intention

You were literally going to change this community rules against the will of at least half of the members if we didn't call you out about this, so sorry but it seems that you indeed have intentions

so in context everyone can understand what i meant ( expect maybe you )

Well, you edit and remove everything all the time so it's hard to follow.

quoting me to make me look like an asshole and that is not nice.

Could you please restore the poll thread? That would be nice too, a lot of people brought valuable comments in there, and now it can't be accessed anymore, which isn't nice either.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

have no intention

See you are doing it again i said i have no other intention. I am done talking to you good day/night.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Could you please restore the poll thread? A lot of people brought valuable comments in there, and now it can’t be accessed.

I guess I might have to raise it to the LW admins as a side note to my previous claim.

Happy to help

[–] [email protected] -2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I was going to do it as some of us have life's and might take a minute to track it . Also are you thinking you are scaring me or something by saying i'll cry to admins ?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Then please do it, restore the other thread when people brought the other arguments against the changes, and call it a day.

There's no crying, just reporting non standard moderation behaviours.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

As you are not stopping and still spamming after i restored the post and told you about it and asked you to stop spamming i am going to have to ban you as it is in the rules . Please don't use your alts to spam again. Also if you stop now i'll not do anything buy this is the last warning.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

You also just edited this comment and the one above. But I am the one misunderstanding your constantly changing comments, really?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I edited typos and put a full stop nothing else . Do you want me to remove that full stop ?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Please restore the poll thread

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Stop spamming its aldready done.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

Thanks.

Could you please restore the other one (community update I think?) Basically the one where @[email protected] , that person from Kbin and @[email protected] expressed our concerns with how the poll was handled?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Unrelated, but could you remove the full stop and capitalise "Tools" in the community display name. I get unreasonably annoyed when looking at it.
