This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Holy cow. I thought this comment section would be filled with light hearted jokes. Some of yall need get your chronically online asses outside.
The is the most reddit esque comment section I've seen on lemmy and it's gross
Lemmy is pretty great compared to reddit so long as the topics stay away from anything to do with feminism or women's rights. Otherwise it starts to feel like the reddit cesspit is leaking, and it's depressing. Anyone remember the few days when "the bear" discussion took over the fediverse? Those were dark times. Or any time someone even mentions the word "mansplaining", even if it's satirical.
She should be using Linux instead.
There are plenty of reasonable comments. Most have more upvotes than the sexualizing ones. That said, look closely at what she is wearing in the pic. If she put shorts on, the sides of that thing would still be above the shorts. The image was designed to have sexual appeal. She is showing more skin than most people have. So of course some people are going to go in that direction. Men in general haven't evolved enough not to.
With an image designed to have sexual appeal, is it wrong to see the sexual appeal?
Nope, never said it was. I was saying that with such an image, one should expect sexualized comments.
I am sorry if I misunderstood you. Would you mind explaining the line about evolving? It seemed to imply to me that there is a possible (better?) future state of things?
ah yes. Seeing it is fine. Saying what your thinking... not so much. But I wasn't trying to imply that I am more evolved... I am litterally saying that man (and women really) haven't evolved enough to not think about sex and screwing when we see an image like that. And anyone who thinks otherwise is fooling themselves. Some have been trained or learned not to say what they are thinking, but most are thinking it all the same. I am sure there are exceptions of course.
I said nothing about sex appeal. She's hot, and he's hot but that's not what im talking about
Not sure I said you said anything about sexual appeal.
Nah, this is about what I expected... why else would it get 600 upvotes?
Lemmy is full of the worst reddit bullshit. I was genuinely surprised at first, primarily because I thought it was going to be a bit of a refuge from bottom of the barrel idiocy. Instead, it’s the worst of it.
The unbelievably pathetic trash is why I am still looking for a good reddit alternative. Seeing all of the problems we solved on reddit years ago is honestly kind of sad.
That's a light-hearted take. Why do some people like to work themselves into a froth with their imaginary scenarios?
I'm not disagreeing with you but try using a period now and again they don't cost any money

Irony.
