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.
-
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.

Wearing a baggy t-shirt like everyone else on the strike is news now?
Also, have I not been vocal enough about my support of the strike here?
Where is my front page post on Lemmy about being "the opposite of a scab"?
You're a vision in a t-shirt! Your sunnies are so chic! What a stylish spin on... appropriate clothes for a warm sunny day. How do you do it!?
Wait till they see my home outfit of a hoodie, sweatpants and a tub of ice cream.
Don't forget to accessorize with a no-nonsense scrunchie for an effortless spin on that "lazy days" look!
Scandalous! Content should be marked as NSFW!
@MargotRobbie - B-b-but "you" have.... "signature blonde locks", unlike anyone else in Hollywood.
I think @Mantis_Toboggan is right, this has to have been written by an AI.
She has such beautiful blueish brownish greenish eyes!
Well, I think you're doing a good job modding the android instance.
Thought I'd give Jared Leto's method acting nonsense of "a reddit moderator" a try.
Turns out to be pretty easy, all things considered.
I haven't been particularly following the strikes but just scrolling on here I had seen you mention your support for it somewhere.
It's weird reading this person praising what I assume to be a free t-shirt on par with the ones they give away for running a 5k as a fashion statement.
Thank you for your service. o7
I hope there are strikes going for games too. I am looking forward to develop a Gta Chinatown Wars like game on Godot engine.
Game developers don’t have unions. Besides, this is a B2B conflict. Workers don’t care if it’s more expensive to publish a game.
They should though. They get screwed harder than nearly any other subset of the tech industry. Tech workers, overall, and need unions too. They're getting such a miniscule cut of the revenues that it's shocking.
The biggest impact is on indies that may have very few devs. If you're not making AAA or even AA games, it could mean closing down.
Yes, but striking doesn't help small devs at all.
