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/

?

I don't see any anime subs by default just browsing the lemmy.world all page when sorted by hot, active, scaled, or new. So what exactly are you doing, and where do I sign up?

Seriously, I would love to see anime communities, but I don't think I've ever seen one... Lemmy for me seems to be 99% US politics, 0.99% LLM bros trying to sell their scams, 0.01% other posts, of which about 0.01% might actually be interesting... 😐

Eh, I'm more into tentacles and whatnot.

Still, we were talking about seeing stuff by default, not by looking it up.

And the thing about Lemmy and having to look up stuff that you don't see by default is that once you find it it turns out to be the same dozen or so posts you found the last time you looked. And the previous one. And the one before.

In the most tragic cases you can see a user posting stuff for a week or two around the time of the Reddit API exodus, hoping to attract other lemmings interested in the same stuff so they'd post their own... and slowly losing hope until they stop. It's fucking sad.

Don't get me wrong, Lemmy is still far better than Reddit is now, and orders of magnitude more alive if you don't count the bots (Reddit is more alive in the sense that a decomposing corpse full of maggots is more full of life than the poor critter was before dying, except the maggots are bots, which aren't alive at all), but it's far from what Reddit was before it killed itself, let alone when when it was good.

Also, holy necromancy Batman... this thread was about a month old..!
