Re: [Trisquel-users] Amazon donates 0.5% of the price of your eligible AmazonSmile purchases to the charitable organization of your choice

Indeed that is about Amazon, but this forum should be under other news  forum  
folder. Do we have that folder available? No we don't!


By Reading the community forum guidelines, Some of guidelines could be read  
and interpret very differently.
It is not specific and still vague with generalization. Thai is just my  
opinion, everyone else is entitled to their own.


All I'm asking is a little bit of reorganization with More alternative forum  
folders. It will be good For any user to post properly in their proper  
forums, as need it.


That will help, folder indexing and topic location, avoiding the over  
crowding of the main forum, it will help at the long run.


Everything has its rightful place. Yet, If the admins of this Trisquel  
website, don't mind non-related Trisquel topics to be place anywhere? Then is  
there headache, resources, time and money.


Specially, When downtime and maintenance schedules take longer from the  
normal.


This matter needs to be address properly.

Respectfully and don't scream at me. I'm all ears...

0.5%? So, for every $100 you spend, they'll give a charity 50 cents. I don't  
think that amount is anywhere near enough to justify buying from Amazon for  
that purpose.


If you were going to buy from Amazon anyway, fine, but please don't give  
Amazon gratis advertising based on it.

Also, Amazon was part of ALEC, a secretive right-wing corporate-funded bill  
mill that was until a few years ago relatively unknown:

Not even every $100 you spend- only eligable AmazonSmile purchases have  
0.5% donated, so it's probably more like 50 cents per $200 or so.
