This definition does not make it clear what you're targeting. Can you be more precise? Since I use flattr I wonder if I'm concerned. I even encourage users to use flattr to support free software with one blog post per month. Is this spam according to you? > I think we as a project should not tolerate such, agree so, and provide > simple > filter mechanisms, so that people can continue to have these links in _their_ > blog posts, while they are filtered out on http://planet.debian.org I don't agree in general. I fail to see how this helps towards our goal of creating a free operating system. As far as I am concerned, I like to be reminded that another Debian contributor is using Flattr and that I can use this to support his work. I also like to read about any commercial venture that contributors have started (like branchable.com by Joey Hess and Lars Wirzenius). > How much spam do you find tolerable?

What I do is to provide a link for people that like my posts to support my work. It's not very intrusive IMO.
