Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

At what point would that trade of be not worth it?
Right now in my head, it seems that too many communities are being started, and for most interests there is no clear "winning" community.
Huh?
You're here aren't you? I think that says you consider the tradeoffs worth it.
Im here because im making a conscious effort because reddit is descending into "crypto moderator damnation bullshittery," not because it has cemented itself into habituality yet.
And im not sure it will at this rate, and that oeaves a goant stinking hole in my online habits of "using reddit but I'd really rather not be".
Lol, there's a name for "doing it but I really don't/shouldn't be".
I'm kinda relieved. I too was spending far too much time there. Got a new start here, thing I'm gonna "curate" (ugh, hate that word) my feed to just useful stuff. Block news, politics, emotional tugs, etc. Just "how does this work" kinda stuff.
