- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.

- These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.

in Windows. - No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts

I mean, do the people at the fediverse really talk mainly about Linux? I see in both Lemmy and Mastodon more people talking about US politics, LGBTQ+ stuff and furrys (lmao) than anything related to technology in general. I guess the kind of content someone sees would depend a lot on the instance someone creates their account in?
I see some Linux but I'm subscribed to a lot of techy communities. Self host, programming etc. So it's kinda normal.
Could be the default view on each instance... On my first account I subbed to a lot of different communities on different instances so I saw all the crap. Eventually due to all the politics bullshit I just migrated to my current instance which has hexbear and lemmygrad blocked so it's been a lot better.
But even so, I always see a bunch of politics crap on the memes community.
Yeah I also do see a lot more content of the communities I'm subbed to than of the instance I created my account in.
