Hey there. This instance currently follows the code of conduct and rules for mastodon.world: https://mastodon.world/about

Discussion and civil criticism of these subjects is allowed, but name calling, ad hominem attacks, and other uncivil behaviour breaks the rules.

Also remember that specific communities here may have additional rules.

It looks like we can't pin comments yet, so apologies if this reply gets buried. For now I'm going to lock this post, as the discussion has degraded and is full of rule-breaking.

I love this bit from the article:

To a request for comment, X only sent Ars an auto-response, saying, "Busy now, please check back later." (To be fair, in this case "check back later" is a good summary of what happened.)

Its not a bad comparison. Sure, some details might differ, but the underlying concept of a build that only uses the open source code is the same.

That's great, thanks for starting the community! It's good to have place where the content accessible for people to still engage with it.

We'll find a way to promote the visibility of the community so that it can start to become a hub. Probably in a list of recommended communities stickied to the front page.

Hey! Thanks for your question. There wasn't before, but there's now !newcomers@lemmy.world. The plan is to have a stickied post with a list of recommended communities for new users.

Yeah exactly. It does have some features that require integration with the init system, which systemd obviously supports, but it could be used independently of systemd quite happily, and other init systems could easily support those integrations.
