Linux-related discussion as a cybersecurity threat
Starting on January 19, 2025 Facebook's internal policy makers decided that Linux is malware and labeled groups associated with Linux as being "cybersecurity threats". Any posts mentioning DistroWatch and multiple groups associated with Linux and Linux discussions have either been shut down or had many of their posts removed. We've been hearing all week from readers who say they can no longer post about Linux on Facebook or share links to DistroWatch. Some people have reported their accounts have been locked or limited for posting about Linux.

One can only hope that this is a mistake that will be resolved soon. to post comments
