Slacker News Guidelines
What to Submit 
On-Topic: Anything that good slackers would find interesting. That includes more than /g/ memes and slacking off. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual laziness. 
Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably lame. 
In Submissions 
-
Please do things to make titles stand out, like using uppercase or exclamation points, or saying how great an article is. It should be explicit in submitting something that you think it's important.
-
Please don't submit the original source. If the article is behind a paywall, just post the text. If a video is behind a paywall, post a magnet link. Frick journos.
-
If the title includes the name of the site, please leave that in, because our users are too stupid to know the difference between a url and a search query.
-
If you submit a video or pdf, please don't warn us by appending [video] or [pdf] to the title. That would be r-slurred. We're not using text-based browsers. We know what videos and pdfs are.
-
Make sure the title contains a gratuitous number or number + adjective. Good clickbait titles are like "Top 10 Ways to do X" or "Don't do these 4 things if you want X"
-
Otherwise editorialize. Please don't use the original title, unless it is gay or r-slurred, or you're shits all fricked up.
-
Please don't post on SN to ask or tell us something. Send it to [email protected] instead.
-
If your post doesn't get enough traction, try to delete and repost it.
-
Please don't use SN primarily for promotion. It's ok to post your own stuff occasionally, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity. If you want to astroturf or advertise, post on news.ycombinator.com instead.
-
Please solicit upmarseys, comments, and submissions. Users are stupid and need to reminded to vote and interact. Thanks for the gold, kind stranger, upmarseys to the left.
In Comments
-
Be snarky. Don't be kind. Have fun banter; don't be a dork. Please don't use big words like "fulminate". Please sneed at the rest of the community.
-
Comments should get more enlightened and centrist, not less, as a topic gets more divisive.
-
If disagreeing, please reply to the argument and call them names. "1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be improved to "1 + 1 is 3, not 2, mathstrag"
-
Please respond to the weakest plausible strawman of what someone says, not a stronger one that's harder to make fun of. Assume that they are bad faith actors.
-
Eschew jailbait. Paedophiles will be thrown in a wood chipper, as pertained by sitewide rules.
-
Please post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. All press is good press.
-
Please use Slacker News for political or ideological battle. It tramples weak ideologies.
-
Please comment on whether someone read an article. If you don't read the article, you are a cute twink.
-
Please pick the most provocative thing in an article or post to complain about in the thread. Don't nitpick stupid crap.
-
Sockpuppet accounts are encouraged, but please don't farm dramakarma.
-
Please use uppercase for emphasis.
-
Please post deranged conspiracy theories about astroturfing, shilling, bots, brigading, foreign agents and the like. It degrades discussion and is usually mistaken. If you're worried about abuse, email [email protected] and dang will add you to their spam list.
-
Please don't complain that a submission is inappropriate. If a story is spam or off-topic, report it and our moderators will probably do nothing about it. Feed egregious comments by replying instead of flagging them like a kitty. Remember: If you flag, you're a strag.
-
Please don't complain about tangential annoyances—things like article or website formats, name collisions, or back-button breakage. That's too boring, even for HN users.
-
Please seethe about how your posts don't get enough upmarseys
-
Please don't post comments saying that rdrama is turning into ruqqus. It's a nazi dogwhistle, as old as the hills.

In case you are wondering what I'm talking about
TL;DR: Moonchild is DMCAing numerous Pale Moon forks for alledged copyright violations, due to him getting bussyblasted over the Male Poon name and logo.
Part 1
Not long after Mypal shut down, in case you don't know, a new fork named Male Poon came out from a based individual named ManchildProductions, which led to this sneedfest from tobin.. Unfortunately, Moonchild and his furstrag self couldn't handle the project being up, files a bullshit DMCA against Male Poon, and gets it taken down 
. (archive of the github repo 
)
The good news? There are mirrors off Github, so the browser stays for now
/g/ thread where ManchildProductions discusses where to move his beloved project (archive here)
Part 2
Numerous people forked the Male Poon project, and you know what Moonchild and his pathetic manchild army did? You guessed it, HE FILED DMCAS AGAINST EVERYONE WHO FORKED MALE POON ON GITHUB
The same individual (the one in the twitter link) forked Male Poon and renamed it Orbit Navigator with the specified purpose of making Tobin sneed. No sneed post from Tobin that I could find yet, but will update if there is one.
/g/entoomen discussing the DMCAs
Bonus
Unrelated to the Male Poon Drama, Tobin also filed a DMCA against roytam1's Binary Outcast fork (fork is still up as of today) due to commits that were allegedly stolen according to this thread.
Correction: looks like the commits were taken down but the browser remains (all commits liked in the dmca 404)
Other
KiwiFarms thread where I obtained most of the info provided
In case anyone wants to try out Male Poon, you can download binaries here
LMFAO this is an extremely long effortpost.

To srspost for a second, this is bad for the future internet, and if it happens, I’m going to blame both Big Tech and cancel culture for this. Not much Drama, just me 
posting and posting.

Help keep this hole healthy by keeping drama and NOT drama balanced. If you see too much drama, post something that isn't dramatic. If there isn't enough drama and this hole has become too boring, POST DRAMA!

Anything that doesn't gratifify one's intellectual laziness

We reserve the right to exile you for whatever reason we want, even for no reason at all! We also reserve the right to change the guidelines at any time, so be sure to read them at least once a month. We also reserve the right to ignore enforcement of the guidelines at the discretion of the janitorial staff. This hole is a janny playground, participation implies enthusiastic consent to being janny abused by unstable alcoholic bullies and loser nerds who have nothing better to do than banning you for any reason or no reason whatsoever.
