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 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. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 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. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • 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.
    •  

    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 remove France.

    the part where the community has been actively hostile to trans folks doesn't make 'em transphobic?

    You gonna provide a source? It's been a couple days now.

    Google it. I'm not the entertainment

    I googled this for you. You are not entertaining, I agree. Just another bandwagoner. More reading and less typing next time πŸ‘.

    Community? It was 1 mod 3 years ago that was already removed. Wdym "actively"?

    [–] Luci@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    So we're just gonna let it go then?

    [–] Eyck_of_denesle@lemmy.zip 0 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

    Obviously no? They were called out and fixed their shitty moderation. I haven't seen anything remotely close to any transphobia granted I'm barely ever on discord but I would like people to link actual source to that rather than a 3 year old 1 mod behaviour as "community is transphobic" comments.

    It doesn't help foss, it's just self biting ourselves over non issues while the general population continue to support corporations over foss. Not saying you should not call people out, just saying call Varxy out.

    You also said "has been". Can you show any other instance of the "community" other than that one mod and maybe something recent?

    Edit: Yep, no response. Can't show what isn't there. Shocker.
