1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • 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.
    • 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, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
    • 5. 🇬🇧 Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. 🇬🇧🇦🇺🇺🇸
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
    • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
    •

    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 remove France.

    The censorship on firefox forums is insane

    [–] haui_lemmy@lemmy.giftedmc.com -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    I have no idea if it is censorship but the amount of jerks throwing shit at you for saying {insert critical question} is insane. I‘m not talking about „did you know mozilla sells kid slaves?“ idiocy but things like „I don’t like that google is the main financial contributor“ stuff.

    A few days back someone posted this article on the firefox subreddit. It is a well written article with good points, but the hivemind ignored the content of the article and resorted to ad hominems and name calling because the author is a supposed right winger. It would not be surprising if the post was removed by now.

    Ah yes. Lunduke, a totally reputable person who always knows what he's talking about.

    [–] InstallGentoo@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    You're just proving my point. I haven't seen anyone point out anything wrong or misleading from that article. Only name calling and ad hominems. I do not care about the author. Why can't you just focus on the contents of the article?

    [–] Rustmilian@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

    All he did was repeat shit that we've known for years in the most sensationalist way possible so he could get a fucking profit of a clickbait article.
    He's a "journalist", wtf do you expect. This is his entire deal; repeat already well known shit, sprinkle in some sensational nonsense, do zero due diligence as a journalist and use the most clickbait title possible for profit.
    I'm sorry, but his shit always reads like an AI wrote more than half of it, and when he won't even ask the people involved like he's supposed to as a journalist, he's bringing nothing new whatsoever, only speculation and sensationalism.
    That's all there is to it.

    I have posted this exact article there some months ago I believe. Or at least one just like it.

    I totally get your point. Instead of just saying „this is false for x reason“ they go after the people who post this.

    I really hate that.
