Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Some of us experience this on Lemmy too.
There are some communities here where users plunge headfirst in groupthought and if you cross their path, good gravy will the down votes flood in. It's not about being right or wrong, it's about refusing to acknowledge alternative points of view.
Water off a duck's back. If Lemmy needs more kindness, be the kindness you seek. That's my philosophy.
I was so confused to what grout thought was
I was thinking hard headedness
Always in lines
I had no idea until i clicked the link
Ha! Fat finger syndrome! Caught me before the edit.
I find it weird you called it "groupthought" when the word is "groupthink", and you even linked to the groupthink article.
Thank college psych classes for that one; it's just how I learned it.
I wrote my post, decided to add a link (yeah, it's a tad different now) and found my typo. Got distracted after that.
It's all the same thing though. :)
That’s my experience here with /technology…god forbid you like your Apple product - everyone there seems dedicated to shitting on your likes, and by extension, you.
If you happen to feel like firefox/mozilla could do better by doing anything different, go to any other sub than firefox. I dont remember if it was on world of ml but I left because of this exact thing.
