I’ll start. Non serious answers also welcome

  1. Linux (Linux)

  2. FOSS or die

  3. Video content should have been text

  4. Not caring a LOT about privacy makes you a non-lemmy normie

I (OP) just read this. What is it you suggest I do better next time? I couldn’t completely understand from the thread.

So if I were you, I would do two seperate threads

  1. Jokey thread (+ positive)
  2. room for improvement/complaints/sad or angry stuff (- negative)

N'er may the two meet :)

I respectfully disagree.

Joking about our own shortcomings/not taking ourselves too seriously is, to me, a valid form of humour and a nice way of expressing ourselves.

I am sorry that my post was not to everyone’s taste.

You should at least keep that at the very beginning (like the first thing people see so they notice and take it into account)

Thanks for your answer.

In my thinking I had done that by stating non-serious answers also welcome in the first part of the post. Should that have been phrased differently?

You should put it at the very top/start of the post. Like people should immediately see on the first line your disclaimer
