Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

You're not missing much. It's a soulless place, not to mention remarkably racist. Sure it's clean and safe, but there's no vibrancy. I live in South America, in a city that's considered dangerous by world standards, but I walk out my door and there's music and life.. the city buzzes. Some people like living in a sterile bubble I guess but not me.
Hablas español? Cuales tu ciudad?
Me defiende jeje. Mi compañera es Colombiana y vivimos en Medellín. Y tú ¿de dónde eres?
Pensé que fue Colombia jaja, sí Medellín tiene el estereotipo de peligrosidad.
Soy Kiwi, vivo en Nueva Zelanda, pero puedo hablar un poco español.
Ustedes tienen eso góndola sí? Y las favelas lleno de color?
Así es .. Medellín se llama la ciudad de la eterna primavera, y cuenta con metrocable que sube a los barrios populares. El metro ha sido un gran éxito para la ciudad, es limpio y eficiente y todos aquí son orgullosos de tenerlo.
He ido a Australia varios veces pero nunca a Nuevo Zelanda.. queiro ir. Toda la gente que je encontrado de allá es simpática y alegre. He leído mucho de allá, que es un país con mucha diversidad geográfica y de clima, como Colombia. Con las tierras altas y un clima suave ustedes pueden cultivar café imagino. Y sé que es un país muy tranquilo y seguro. Ojalá que llega el día cuando Colombia tiene paz también, y menos desigualdad. Espero que tengas la oportunidad a visitar.. seguro que te vas a disfrutar.
