3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.

in Windows. - No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts

Of all the things wrong with GNOME, their choice of logo is at the bottom of the list.
Their insistence that it be pronounced 'guh-nome' is a worse crime.
GNU as the animal or the initials, okay, sure. Debatable. Gnome is a whole-ass word. That is ridiculous.
Up there with QT insisting their name isn't Q-T. The initials are a word. If you wanted it pronounced Qute you should've called it that.
I thought you were very much not supposed to read the G?

You mean !woooosh@lemmy.world or c/woooosh@lemmy.world.
