Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Being on Lemmy in the first place requires a certain sort of situational awareness. It's full of people who looked at Facebook, and Reddit, and Xitter, and said "man something's not right here" and then took actions about it.
Statistically speaking, Lemmy users are more likely to be clued in about more things than your average internet user.
Yeah, I was just explaining Lemmy/PieFed to a friend the other day and they didn’t quite get it. I left all the mainstream social media sites because I could see what the algorithm is doing to people, but so many that are entrenched in those sites just don’t see it.
I explain to people that I've removed algorithms and advertisements from my life, deleted my linkedin, don't use android or iOS, don't buy anything from Amazon or Walmart, and only read paper books, and then they look at me like I have three heads.
Basically the same here even down to paper books, except I’m guilty of iOS usage. I will go hang my head in shame lol
Using an OS in 2026 when we don't have viable easily obtainable full-Linux phones isn't a shameful thing. We can't all survive off the land off-grid somewhere or something, y'know?
If you care and think about these things, you're doing fine. <3
Appreciate that, I really only meant it in jest. We can’t do everything, but at least trying to do as much as possible is helpful 💚
