YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.
All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:
**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the 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 non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer 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.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
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.
Rule 10- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

lemmygrad and exploding-heads I can understand but why lemmy.ml? It's a general purpose instance with no known bot/Nazi/Tanky/other fascist/etc. infestion.
I thought lemmy.ml was run by the same people as lemmygrad. (And the Lemmy code creators)
At the beginning (of the reddit exodus) the admins were definitely banning people from lemmy.ml for being "critical of the Chinese government" calling it racism. ("Orientalism" was their term.)
I switched to lemmy.world that same day, and haven't really kept up with that instance since then.
I think it's funny when assholes (and it's always the assholes of any group) scream that anything slightly challenging a point of view is racist/phobic...no it's not you fuck heads there can be legitimate different points of view without it being from hate. For example I'm an American, some shit we do well, lots more shit we do poorly, but calling anyone who calls the US on their bullshit "racist/phobic/current term de jour" makes me assume the person accusing is a moron and their opinion shouldn't matter.....it only gets weird when you have two genuine morons trying to claim the high ground like say a white supremacists being upset a black supremacist is calling them out, they both suck.
I'm sorry....I'm in Florida and there's so much goddamn stupidity here it's insane. Take drag shows...have you ever been to one? I'm straight straight....but drag shows are a blast, everyone leans in enjoys themselves and move on. The shows are aimed at adults and spend no time indoctrinating kids unlike the Catholic church...hell I can't think of one news story about a kid getting molested at a drag show/brunch/library hour, can't say the same for church, but nobody is trying to protect the kids from getting diddled by "god's" messengers.
I've lost my point, but fuck Florida.
I'd have to see some specific examples to pass judgement.
Here ya go: https://lemmy.ml/post/1167199
Edit: be sure to scroll down for the admin comments on the matter.
And note that I do not know if they have since changed course on this for lemmy.ml
Holy crap. This should be it's own post. Just purged all the "serious" communities I was following on there.
I know what you mean but I had to laugh because I linked a post. That is to say, it was its own post haha.
I'm not going to lie, I'm constantly waffling between Lemmy and kbin in no small part because Lemmy (the software) is maintained by that same admin.
I'm using Lemmy because it looked easier to set up but damn, once there's kbin apps I might have to look into switching my server over to kbin.
As far as I know, kbin doesn't require JavaScript either. Which might be another plus considering the Lemmy vulnerability that was just exploited using JavaScript.
While I also don't like JS, I just want to point out that not having JS on the website does nothing to prevent an XSS attack that injects JS into a site. This is more of a back-end kind of problem.
I appreciate the clarification, thanks.
