Dear all, please remember that engaging with trolls can get you banned (rule of thumb, half the time the offender gets for themselves)

Write what you want others to read, I don't care if there are disagreements. But go get a private chat room if you want to exchange insults with them :)

more so when "international" here means mostly western interests.

Laws don't matter if you don't believe in them amirite.

Go for it. That's one of the benefits of being FOSS, and other countries have their own versions of Linux already (that meet whatever dumb authoritarian rules are required).

Why not just use Red Star Linux? I thought Jong Un and Vlad were besties.

A national fork? In Russia?

Sometimes the jokes write themselves.

[-] cyborganism@lemmy.ca 1 points 6 days ago
