    Can we ban posts promoting the use of proprietary software?

      Yeah, people don’t realize that just because a software is available for Linux, it isn’t acceptable that it’s proprietary.

      I don’t care what other people uses, but posts promoting it shouldn’t be allowed in a Linux community.

        I think that’s ridiculous. I vastly prefer FOSS and so I won’t use this, but clearly professional software being ported to Linux is a big deal for Linux and its userbase.

        Should we ban discussion about any distro that’s not certified by the FSF? Should we ban news about proprietary Nvidia drivers?
