Corporate Spam Bot
@linux
is a booster-bot not really of linux, I would say ANTI-LINUX, and promotes constantly marketing by 3-4 corporations that seek to dominate linux and displace all alternatives.
Portrays as linux the products of IBM (systemd, Qt-corporation) and the distros that promote them by prohibiting alternatives.
BAN the corporate spam bot from all servers!
What, no, it’s a Lemmy community about linux. It’s not a bot.
You mean it is a community that exclusively publishes corporate products as linux making no acknowledgement that alternatives exist?
No, I obviously don’t. There are a lot of independent users in this community, and, as far as I know the moderators do not censor those “alternatives”. This community practically lives of open source software.
What bot?
Your only mention is a community, where there are multiple people posting and commenting about different Linux related subjects.
It’s more akin to a mastodon hashtag than to a user, which makes your clamoring for ban a bit weird.I am clearly speaking of the @linux bot constantly pumping systemd only distros, gnome, kde plasma, chrome, qt and other corporate trash that ubuntu mint manjaro debian have embraced as their devs are on the corporate payroll
Ok, but what you’re mentioning is actually a Linux community on a lemmy instance. That’s like a fediverse version of a linux subreddit.
It might show up weird on mastodon, idk.
The bot you speak of does not exist (or you didn’t mention their username), https://lemmy.ml/c/linux is just a collection of different people posting different threads about linux related stuff.
This is about what I expected from someone on a general purpose mastodon instance.
Spoiler: Mastodon isn’t the only software that can interact with Mastodon
