RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
- Keep it clean and SFW

MODERATORS
Well, though one could say I technically like receiving more (who doesn't), if I had to choose, I'd rather give than receive, because I'm not "sucked in" to my own feelings, if that makes sense. It should be noted that I am diagnosed anhedonic and this is cited here as sometimes it's hard to "feel" something I receive. Compared to someone else getting something because of me and me being able to think "I did it" as they express joy. If only people didn't consider me selfish because this translates to them as a "flex" mindset.
