Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.
7. No duplicate posts.
If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners.
The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

I thought we were here, I thought this was the place?
On a related note, I offer to any who wish it my time and attention via this anonymous discord server LINK. I would have used Matrix but it's still missing a couple features.
Is this a joke? I said sites that dont ban me or require unnecessary personal data. Discord is exactly one of those shitty services.
I've given Discord exactly 0% of my personal identifying information, and I've reposted pornography there with 0 bans. Also, it still works as a website in desktop mode.
I respect your choice and I'm sorry you haven't found a place to belong, but the discord sentiment in particular sounds like maybe a skill issue.
Sign up for an account on Tor Browser.
They don't ask for your info because they already have it. Try signing up where they don't, and they'll ban you unless you give them your identity
Done, used a tempInBox email to verify a slightly more permanent ProtonMail free account and then created a Discord Account for you, all on Tor.
Username: SmoothedSquare@proton.me
Password: Ergherew54!
Same credentials for discord and proton until somebody logs in and changes them.
Also, I assure you my ISP coop doesn't sell my info to Discord, lol.
