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.

Don’t worry, I’m getting my minusforum AI X1 in an hour and tonight is OpenSuse Thumbleweed (Sway WM) installation night!

I even have popcorn and sweets to pass the time during downloads and zypper installs, can’t wait 🤓

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.

You’re welcome, I’ll always be there to not help.

Guys, the divorce message has been passed and heard, the worm is in the apple.

Now let’s be the geek squad we are and find a good tech solution for OP.

Sadly I can’t help as I don’t know shit about the iPhone.

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.

Working from Friday till Monday, it’s quite the tradition tho as it is cool to be working the ops room at that time. Not much to do and plenty of cash to make as it counts as 3 Sundays (Friday and Monday are bank holidays, Sunday is well… a Sunday)

I’ve helped plenty of people move to my country, always on subreddits and now on lemmy communities, I sometimes receive DMs asking for information.

So I’d say, find a community for that country and ask questions. If they are none on lemmy then you might get a provisional authorization to ask on reddit.

Amazon used to not deliver in my country so we developed our own, with 24h free delivery, blackjack and hookers.

Now that Amazon figured out the custom taxes for us, it is too late as we have our own local alternative.
