Linux (Linux)
FOSS or die

Not caring a LOT about privacy makes you a non-lemmy normie

Are there other people enforcing Rule 3 or am I just aggressive enough about it that it made such an impression?

Either way, I'm pleased.

I see a fair few comments about this quite frequently, and I completely agree - there's a lot of video content that is better off as a written piece. Not everyone wants to sit through 10-15 mins of video that they could have skimmed or read in 2

Send it to one of those people who make you read their life story before showing you the recipe. They'll turn it into 30.

I make videos and still think they're an unsuitable format for at least 90% of the stuff they get used for.

Please cite these rules (eg Rule #3 blah blah blah). Orherwise, I and others who werent there have no idea what youre talking about and its de facto unrelatable or insccessible

The OP lists four numbered rules.
