From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I've notice that posts in this community tend to get deleted, even ones with multiple comments and/or useful information. Even worse is when they get posted again by some other user a few days later.

What's going on? What's the policy around here?

Can you explain how exactly the evidence was created? Did some people create fake pages months in advance?

from the post debunking it, it was that it wasn’t “months in advance” that was the giveaway – for a website that she was supposed to have been using for several years for her business, the only snapshot archive.org had was dated an hour before the accusations started getting posted

Ah, I was thinking about the claimed social media pages though. I'm currently at "work" so I can't verify yet.
