From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Yep, I talked about this on Reddit a couple weeks ago. They started putting filters against Lemmy instances up almost as soon as people started talking about moving. They started with small instances, but now they're moving on to the larger ones.

I had to use kek.gg just to share a link to my new community to the old subreddit.

Edit: Is this really a three-year-old thread or is something wrong? If it is, how did it end up at the top of my "hot" feed!?

I think recently I replied to a post linking this old thread. Sorry.

Try putting it as a link in a text post instead.

Most subs block this domain, because domains you have to pay hundreds of dollars for are seen as legitimate.

Subs or Reddit itself? The message is from Reddit instead of AutoModerator or other bot that would suggest it's configured by the sub so is it blocked side-wide now?
