The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Thank God I didn't give in to herd instinct and delete my Reddit account. I did that four times in a row, and I don't play those games anymore. I didn't sign up for a subject that is foreign to me, especially since in my opinion the alternative apps work worse than the official one, and the lack of video downloads doesn't bother me because I don't watch porn. My Reddit stays the way it was. The FreeBSD and Slackware communities and a couple or three others have sane members.
Why would FreeBSD and Slackware communities be on a proprietary platform, when an open source platform is available?
Reddit was easy and having run Slackware, anywhere you can save time so you can make more tweaks is just the name of the game.
I remember the "we are adults, not revolutionaries" entry in r/freebsd. After that, the subreddit administration decided to leave things as they were.
I don't understand the point raised by R. Stallman about using only free software. Because for most of us the PC is a working tool, but in no way a religious toy.
