This is the official technology community of Lemmy.ml for all news related to creation and use of technology, and to facilitate civil, meaningful discussion around it.
Ask in DM before posting product reviews or ads. All such posts otherwise are subject to removal.

1: All Lemmy rules apply
2: Do not post low effort posts
3: NEVER post naziped*gore stuff
4: Always post article URLs or their archived version URLs as sources, NOT screenshots. Help the blind users.
5: personal rants of Big Tech CEOs like Elon Musk are unwelcome (does not include posts about their companies affecting wide range of people)

7: crypto related posts, unless essential, are disallowed
This is a great ruleset. Thank you for cleaning up the discussion
Brave browser has its controversies, but occasionally it does make good strides in privacy too, e.g. see this part of the blog: https://brave.com/privacy-updates/
Unfortunately this community is no longer viable for unbiased technology news, as evident by the moderator’s comments.
See you!

So you’d not post either if they update their privacy policy or privacy tools (for better or worse)?
All I’m saying is that it is okay to limit some kind of news that don’t add any value, but those that do, should be posted, regardless of what the opinion on the company itself is.

This community is about technology. Brave Browser is technology.
Are posts about Brave Browser going to be disallowed because the most vocal members of this community don’t like it?

Who decides what is good technology and what is bad technology? Do you?
Should news about the Brave Browser be disallowed even if it doesn’t feature Brave’s cryptocurrency?

My issue is that Brave Browser is the only non-cryptocurrency subject you explicitly disallow. Remember, the browser, not the coin. There’s nothing about 4chan or Raid Shadow Legends in your list of prohibited topics. Your bias is clearly on display here.
To reiterate my question you dodged, how will you decide what is “good” and “bad” technology? As a community moderator, you should be impartial.

Great changes
¡Gracias!
So tired of Elon bs posts. Thanks
This. People who are freaking obsessed with the dude can keep the spam to themselves, that way it’s actually possible to avoid having five tons of Elon’s mental diarrhea shovelled at your face all the time.

I saw your profile and helped balance it out.

It’s referring to the Elon bootlickers. You can safely remain atheist

That would at least be proper tech news if that happened.
Still a possibility.
But seriously, thank you
I do have a bunch of comments with just one or two downvotes and no explaination (the other responses are rather positive). Might be similar case lmao
One question I have is how many posts would be allowed to come from one user at a time. Would it be unlimited or less then 5 etc
