Non-essential crypto news covers crypto advertisement, insignificant news that does not affect legit users like XMR/ETH/BTC holders or darknet users, posts relating to garbage like Brave browser and its coin, and so on. Due to the multiple kinds of crypto posts that pop up, this rule will be applied subjectively on a case-by-case basis.

Community complaints about Elon Musk were raised here. https://lemmy.ml/post/7186058

A lot of ad and spam posts appear regularly, which need to be squashed. This will be enforced more heavily from now on.

Sometimes legitimate products are advertised, which should be allowed to post. This will be checked per case basis, and unless asked for permission, all such posts will be removed without notice.

That... is very concerning regarding my existence, since I have atheist beliefs.

It's referring to the Elon bootlickers. You can safely remain atheist

For a minute I thought I was just a digitised lifeform that time travelled from 3200 to aid the ancient redevelopment of internet mesh network.

That would at least be proper tech news if that happened.

Still a possibility.
