Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.

Rule: You must post before you leave.

MODERATORS
 

==please incorporate the word rule in your post titles==
Here are the things that get you banned:
-saying anything remotely iffy with a lemmygrad or hexbear account
-tankie behaviour
-nazi behaviour
-authoritarian behaviour
-genocide denial
-prejudice of any kind
-anything else that is clearly bad

Things that get your post/comment removed:
-AI generated content
-anything in the banlist
-posts that are so off topic that they don't fit on 196 at all
-moldy memes (old memes, crusty memes, irrelevant memes. The type of things you'd see on your aunt's Facebook page or Elon musk's Twitter account with a laughing emoji as the caption)
-corpoposting

Ban length varies, and is mostly based off of whether or not I think you will change your behavior. I have baned certain people for upwards of 2000 days.

---------EDIT:NSFW RULES---------
NSFW Content is now fully permitted BUT it must be tagged. Any NSFW content that has not been tagged and blurred will be removed. Content warnings should also be added to the title in brackets. Example: [penis] or: [explicit description of sex].
Non-sexualized breasts of any gender are not considered inappropriate and therefore do not need to be blurred/tagged. Yes, even female breasts.

Hi! I don't want to break any rules so I'd like to ask first, what are the rules on self promotion? I was thinking of making a post about a 20-30 minute queer fishing game I made for this year's pride (this one to be specific) and thought it could be nice to share here but don't want to break a rule to do so.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's allowed for now. If self promo becomes A problem, I'll hold another poll.

How does one get flair here?

Also, because I'm bad at image-memeing, blåhaj sounds like what you do when you've had a few and a cop pulls you over.

Question is Lemmy.world affiliated with the tankies that made lemmygrad or is it separate? I didn't know about any of this prior so now I'm worried a bit

What is corpoposting? I am dumb baby

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

I'm not sure but my guess is it's posts that support corporations, like advertising or memes that could be ads if that makes sense

maybe consider (temporarily? permanently?) hiding vote-count on posts, to make it seem less dead in here. it doesn't matter how many votes a post has; it just matters whether it's higher or lower than others. for functional reasons, at least.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I've got vote counts hidden in my UI so things don't feel dead for me, it also helps me resist group think to a varying extent

I’m curious to know more context abt the statement revolving around hexbear & lemmygrad? I’m very new to the fediverse so i don’t know much about these instances

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

Tankie pro-mao/stalin cesspools that ferment people in a powerful echo chamber. Basically hyper-reactionist toxic "leftists" looking for any excuse to stir up trouble

IM TRYING TO POST TO FOLLOW THE RULE BEFORE LEAVING BUT I KEEP GETTING AN ERROR THATI MUST SPECIFY WHAT COMMUNITY HELP PLEASE

Finally an internet community of people that don't think it's funny if people die in horrible ways.
