Free software
!freesoftware@lemmy.zip As you might be aware, lemmy.world has gotten absolutely massive. I know some see that as a benefit but for me it feels very dangerous. If something were to happen to lemmy.world it could potentially destroy lemmy/kbin. Therefore I am moving this community to lemmy.zip.
With that i mean should specific software be promoted and talked about here? Are news allowed? Are questions to specific Software allowed? Is everything regarding FOSS allowed? Those questions likely sound dumb, but for me it would help.
