Yeah, plus given you can get pro for free it really seems more like a announcement than an ad. Slippery slope though.

What's an ad if not a commercial announcement?

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee -1 points 11 months ago

I guess it doesn't seem as much of an ad if it's something free they're promoting. As it would be for most users.

[-] folkrav@lemmy.ca 7 points 11 months ago

It's a commercial offering with a free tier.

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 0 points 11 months ago

Yes and most users would be in the free tier

[-] folkrav@lemmy.ca 5 points 11 months ago

So it's still an ad to a product, or it's not?

  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

  • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!
