After the original mod being inactive for so long, i’ve asked the db0 mods for me to take this community. So, welcome back!

Rules

This includes the instance rules of dbzer0, which can be tl;dr’d to: no right wing nutjobs or tankies are allowed. As for the community rules:

  1. Be nice
  2. No bigotry/prejudice
  3. Don’t promote proprietary software
  4. Stay on topic
  5. No crypto
  6. If you post news exclusive to a country please name it. (This isn’t a bannable rule, but just a recommendation :) )

Why not:

Lemmy.ml

.ml is infamous for banning pretty much anyone they please. This community, while left libertarian, will allow conflicting viewpoints.

Lemmy.world

.world is too big, and has centralized a decentralized community. It simply does not fit, and is a net negative for the fediverse as a whole.

I will be creating a wiki/guide for this community later on, but i’m currently busy.

    It’s a real term dating back to 1956, and it’s a bannable offense by instance rules.

    The instance’s rules are:

    • Nothing positive or promoting cryptocurrency, blockchain or NFTs
    • Nothing extreme-right-wing. This includes conspiracy theories, SovCit, Pro-Police, AnCaps etc. We’ll know it when I see it, don’t test us!
    • No anti-science topics.
    • No Tankie shit.
    • No TERFs.
    • No Porn.

      It sounds like essentially “Do not post anything that expresses a different opinion.” and the “No anti-science topics” sounds like “Do not post documentation that proves our belief is false or wrong.”

        Just don’t bootlick regimes, is it that hard?

        And no anti science doesn’t mean spiritual stuff and such, it means doing shit like denying vaccines or being a QAnon nut job. There’s even a Catholic comm on the instance.

        You’re complicating this for nobody but yourself.
