  1. If you get kicked from an instance, upon joining a new instance, make your first post a furious comment on the admins/mods/hivemind of the instance that kicked you, completely forgetting we can all see the modlog.

Your YouTube link should have been a Piped link but it's okay.

You're free to enjoy the lemmit.online content, but don't interact with it or you will appear confused.

Don't stress about upvotes/downvotes-- They're even more made up here than usual.

Never pass up an opportunity to bitch about ads, Chrome, Reddit, capitalism, Arch users, streaming services, or your favorite Lemmy client.

Do not attempt the Picard Maneuver unless you're sure you know what you're doing.

can we be the internet community that doesn't pretend we're a tight knit group with injokes and 'right' opinions?

there's already enough of those and I hate navigating their dumb shit.

[-] [email protected] 34 points 7 months ago

Sure, that can be a new unwritten rule ;)

Linux is bloat, I'm training the ants in a giant maze, got Doom running on it last weekend.

If a post from the Linux communities pops up on your feed, it is your duty as a Windows user to comment "wELL I dOn't HavE tHAt prOBleM bECauSE I uSe wINdOws" to stop Linux users commenting the opposite on every fucking thread about Windows

Future Oscar winning movie Barbie is the only permitted commercial interest on Lemmy.

And the occasional Wolf of Wallstreet plug, if we mention Margot Robbie’s nude scene

[-] [email protected] 24 points 7 months ago

Suspiciously named user, I literally plug all of my movies on this social media platform. Except the first Suicide Squad. And Terminal.

Also, that's esteemed Academy Award nominated character actress Margot Robbie to you!

FOSS but also no ads. And don't harvest any data to sell either.

I genuinely don't understand where revenue streams are meant to come from for any of this software with peoples expectations.

But honestly Lemmy is so pro piracy that it doesn't really matter if you were to charge for your product

If you are an arch user, like myself, you must announce it at every opportunity.

Also, mandatory GNOME hate.

Each community, at some point in time, has to have someone with severe a case of Main Character Syndrome make a post that refers to another post where their feelings got hurt cuz their initial post didn't get the exact kind of attention they wanted, which then results in a total shit fit in the comments.

I've seen it happen numerous times in my short time on Lemmy. Especially on [email protected].

People need to learn how to just suck it up and move on ffs. I swear it's the r*dditard mentality leaking in here.

May i speak to you for a moment about Linux our great savior?

[-] [email protected] 18 points 7 months ago

This mentality is why lemmy has been haemorrhaging users since the July reddit migration.

You guys are some seriously judgmental bellends a lot of the time.

I don't use Linux because I want my life to be simple, I use lots of Foss and lots of non Foss because I want my life to be simple. I'm glad others care enough about privacy to fight for it because that's a demonstrably good thing in the world, but I just want a simple life and don't honestly care if I'm getting tailored ads and Amazon are listening to my inane kitchen conversations.

I don't want to support reddit but you guys (ironically) make it much much harder to leave when there is next to no acceptance here for anyone who's not a Linux expert who pushes for communism and has never used a Google product in their life.

I know I know, I'm everything that's wrong with the world :) x

[-] [email protected] 16 points 7 months ago

You objectively need to lighten up. This WAS supposed to be a fun post and you've unintentionally (good faith interpretation) sowed discord here where it wasn't otherwise palpable.

No offense guy, I want you here as much as anyone but this isn't Lemmy.Fucking.ML, c'mon man

Are there other people enforcing Rule 3 or am I just aggressive enough about it that it made such an impression?

Either way, I'm pleased.

[-] [email protected] 28 points 7 months ago

I see a fair few comments about this quite frequently, and I completely agree - there's a lot of video content that is better off as a written piece. Not everyone wants to sit through 10-15 mins of video that they could have skimmed or read in 2

Always refer to the whole of threadiverse as ‘Lemmy”.

(Hello from kbin)🙂

To be fair, I think this is quite understandable

I have been curating my experience on lemmy by muting communities I don't care for like politics, sports, some Linux communities, and also I always filter NSFW.

I have never been happier because I don't see what I don't care for.

[-] sbv 17 points 7 months ago

EVERYTHING done/said by conservative politicians is TERRIBLE. Even if this thing is okay, THEY WERE BAD THAT TIME and that's what we're going to talk about NOW. COMMENCE THE AIRING OF THE GRIEVANCES.

I don't entirely disagree, but do we need to do the rage thread every time?

  • Every thread against people not strictly aligning with Leftist politics will be boiled down to: “There are three types of people: reasonable people who agree with me, crazy fascists on the other side, and lily-livered wimps who can’t pick a side (and are also secretly fascists who just won't admit it)!”

  • Anyone with passable writing skills will be downvoted because creating cogent arguments against them is hard, and heaven forbid anyone see a smart argument that doesn't align with your views perfectly.

  • In a similar vein, people will use the downvote as a "fuck you" button without commenting or adding any value to the conversation whatsoever.

(Edit: Yes, yes. You're all hilarious. I may not have a button to hit, but fuck you too.)
