So what kind of content is allowed in this community?
So what kind of content is allowed in this community?
So due to recent developments, are we still allowed to post and discuss tech-related topics? Or is the goal of this community now one of shitposting on LMG, given the recent name and banner changes?
The recent post on stubby screwdrivers was locked before even giving other people the opportunity to share their own thoughts on alternative brands that are specific to their country. As much as Linus and LMG fucked up, really sad to see this community degrading down a path of hatred (even if justified, based on community name change , banner, etc), instead of chatting about what we all love: technology, independent of the situation at LMG.
Really hate seeing a community with so much promise (especially as a Reddit alternative) getting destroyed.
You're viewing a single thread.
Your post is the catalyst of me leaving this community. I haven't really paid all that much attention to the workings of the community but after having a scroll through, echo chamber seems pretty accurate and I'm not going to be a part of it.
I get that everyone is angry with LMG but honestly, a lot of people need to chill out about the whole thing. I'm not often in the practice of comparative advocating, but seriously... Regarding the the work environment, it is pretty common in this space, the errors are relatively small. Madison's claims are extremely serious and should be treated as such but it seems like as soon as anything came out, everyone was so quick to brigade against something they enjoyed not 5 minutes before? People are running this business and they are going to make mistakes but that is okay.
Above all else, LMG, LTT and Linus himself do not owe you anything. I know people don't like hearing it because they want to feel like they're getting more from their 'relationship' with these YouTube based organisations, but they really don't. Many people I've seen are saying things like 'we deserve better' and I'm conscious that actually, you deserve nothing. What they choose to put out is up to them, not you. If you don't like it, don't partake.
After my post got locked yesterday, I setup my own instance: !ltt@devops.pizza - feel free to use it.
Honestly, I think if people are buying $70 screwdrivers, they deserve something in return
