🪒 Community Rules

Rule 1 - Behaviour and Etiquette

Be Respectful. Do not bully, flame, or harass others.
Malicious comments are not allowed but heated discussion and salty banter is okay.
Low effort replies and complaints about content will be removed.

Rule 2 - Content Guidelines

Mail Calls, Simple Questions, and SOTD posts belong in the recurring weekly threads.
Posts must have sufficient content to generate a meaningful discussion.
Images, links, or videos must include additional text that summarizes the topic.

Rule 3 - Reviews and Disclosure

Use [First Impressions] in the title if your experience with the product is limited.
Use the [Review] in the title if you can provide comprehensive details with enough familiarity to answer follow-up questions.
Disclose how the product being reviewed was acquired (e.g., PIF, loan, or purchase). If the product was provided to you directly by the maker or vendor free of charge or at a discount, you must disclose this fact even if the item will later be returned to the maker or vendor.

Vendors are to keep marketing within the biweekly Deals/New Products threads.
Non-vendors may post topics about products if it will foster a compelling discussion.

Thanks, @juergen@feddit.org.

That's how it's designed for now.

Lemmy's only default language is "Undetermined". When a new user signs up at a Lemmy instance, their only language is "Undtermined". By default, anything that is tagged as "English" is not shown to them.

So, our instance is set to "Undetermined" so that people can see the content without having to fiddle with their language settings first.

This is being fixed, and English is going to be enabled by default in the next version of Lemmy. At that point, we'll consider adding English as an option.
