    As said, most probably Christian heritage. Even in secular countries like France it is forbidden.

    To be precise about France, only polygamous weddings are forbidden but being polygamous without being wedded is not illegal. I think it has historically something to do with central Africa immigration from the former colonies.

    You could migrate to France and ask for family reunion to have your wife and kids legally come, but I guess they wanted to put some limits so it was decided that wedding means one partner only. Those laws were made by old right wing parties so it is kind of logical that they wanted to limit African immigration to 2 adults + kids instead of 4 adults + kids.

    Would it be frowned upon? Maybe, mostly by older folks and more traditional peoples but the larger part of the population would just not care. The problem is with legal status, without a wedding you can have child care and heritage problems in case of death.



  • Maybe, I tend to avoid big instances and news. I also heard stuff about news.world mod so I’m not surprised about what you said.

    But I believe it is one dude on one community on one instance, there are still plenty of news community outside of world, ml and (former) grad so they are easy to avoid.

    And it doesn’t change the fact that free speech != spewing hate so if some are looking for that kind of freedom, well, they can look elsewhere.



  • Your freedom stops where other peoples freedom start.

    All instances, except tankie ones, have freedom of speech.

    Definition varies for example between Europe and US. In Europe you have freedom FROM, in the US it’s more like freedom TO.

    Freedom TO can be dangerous as some peoples think that it means they are allowed to say hateful and harmful things. Hurting others is not freedom of speech, it’s just being the shit stain on humanity toilet paper roll and you won’t have that on lemmy. Unless by creating your own no-rules instance that will get defederated by everyone.

    But as long as you are not insulting and harming people, yeah you have freedom of speech everywhere, just the normal sane amount of freedom.







  • Welcome fellow cheese lover. If you’re from where I guess you’re from, we have a few communities for our big plus country.

    Most of normal French speaking in on the jlailu instance, example the not very active !suisse@jlai.lu.

    I think there are some English Switzerland communities and I don’t know about German, they are probably linked with the main German instance (like we are on jlailu with the rest of francophonie).

    And as IRL, Italian speaking part does not exist 🤷🏻‍♂️

    But you’ll find plenty of cool communities not related to a country or language. My favourite type are the ones where you can speak about whatever you want.

    Also as a nice to know, you can blacklist keywords on several apps (and communities, peoples or instances), that way you can avoid the US politics spam around news communities.

    It takes a little while to craft your perfect lemmy experience, but once done it’s a cool place!








  • You can open or replace this fake ceiling square by square as behind it you may find some electrical stuff that sometimes needs to be repaired. It’s also probably cheaper.

    It’s kind of the same as the floor in data centers. If you’ve been in one, the floor is a fake floor made of square sort of plastic tiles. Below that you have the cold air that goes into the servers, AC and DC power, fire and water detectors, cables road etc. You need an easy access to those fake floors or ceiling for maintenance.
