What is Lemmy?

Lemmy is a selfhosted social link aggregation and discussion platform. It is completely free and open, and not controlled by any company. This means that there is no advertising, tracking, or secret algorithms. Content is organized into communities, so it is easy to subscribe to topics that you are interested in, and ignore others. Voting is used to bring the most interesting items to the top.

Think of it as an opensource alternative to reddit!

No show comes as the EU executive considers major cuts to its aid spending by 2030

It all started on Tuesday, when a moderator for r/JoeRogan wrote that “all political posts are now banned on r/JoeRogan.”

“Today we are making the decision to ban all political posts indefinitely,” the explanation read. “After careful consideration, internal discussion and tons of external feedback we have collectively decided that r/joerogan is not the place for politics anymore.”

That post was not received well. One contributor wrote, “Every reddit mod is a hall monitor dork, change my mind. Youre banning the topic he talks about the most. You guys are hypocrites and anti free speech. If you cant mod effectively then go paint your warhammer figurines and let someone else do it.”

Prem Thakker sits down for a Q&A with activist Cameron Kasky, who just launched his primary bid for New York’s 12th congressional district to replace Democratic congressional veteran Jerry Nadler.

Kasky – a survivor of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas school shooting in Parkland, Florida and co-founder of the March For Our Lives gun control movement – has launched an unapologetically progressive candidacy. His platform advocates for universal healthcare, ending aid to Israel, abolishing the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (an agency the 25-year-old Kasky points out is younger than him), and taking on “AI Oligarchs.”

Prem will ask the 25-year-old about the crowded primary field he joins, his unabashed campaign platform, and the remaking of the Democratic party. They will also be taking your questions LIVE!

"Right now is one of the most difficult moments in our history. The pressure on Ukraine is at its peak. The country may face a very tough choice: either a loss of dignity or the risk of losing a key partner," the president said.

Not a shmup; but it's a close cousin, and worth celebrating, I think!

We should start a holiday for when Romans arrived in England and taught them how to bathe and make beet sugar. We can have kids dress up as non-violent legionaries who wear traditional Roman military dress but don't carry weapons because it was a peaceful invasion. They can make hand griffins instead of hand turkeys and eat turnip pie for desert.

Most of the people who run Open Source projects are mortal. Recent history shows us that they will all eventually die, or get bored, or win the lottery, or get sick, or be conscripted, or lose their mind. If you've ever visited a foreign country's national history museum, I guarantee you've read this little snippet: King Whatshisface was a wise and noble ruler who bought peace and prosperity…

So I saw this little gem on a job posting. I’m curious, 1) is this legal based on how it’s phrased and 2) what regulation would prevent pay disclosure like this?

However, due to regulatory requirements, we are only able to consider candidates who reside in U.S. states that do not currently mandate salary disclosure in job postings

This includes, but is not limited to: Texas, Florida, Missouri, Arizona, Indiana, North Carolina, and Wisconsin.

Candidates residing in California, Colorado, New York Illinois, Washington, or other states with active pay transparency laws will not be considered at this time
