1. Follow the site-wide rules
- Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
- Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html
2. Be civil
- 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!
Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

Have you actually seen the video?
It in no way talks about "hidden advertising".
Yes I watched it in it's entirety. He talks about it. As in Linux doesn't do anything if there's no money involved. How he acted towards Billet Labs in a pathetic way because they were an upcoming small firm with little to no money. Another commentator in this post had already mentioned how he turned from positive to negative towards Intel when Intel stopped paying reviewers. Do you remember when they monitised the fricking apology video on YouTube? Clues are all over the place if you are willing to see with an open eye.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Could you please correct your bot to not use double return for new line, which causes empty lines? And instead use a double space at the end of the line, and then return, which works as a normal return.
I have no idea why Lemmy does formatting this very counter intuitive way, but that's how it is.
They are different things. space+space+return is for a new line, yes, but return+return is for a new paragraph, which is a different thing. There is supposed to be a space, some clients just reduce it to a little less than one full line to look more compact, while others just leave the full empty line like you say. Either way it's the intended behaviour.
This is markdown thing. Lemmy supports markdown formatting.
