2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason

It's small enough that just browsing all will actually show you all.
Also big enough for that to be a somewhat unhealthy amount of content to keep up with.
Keep up with? Just browse some posts on /all while popping, then go live a life.
Pimple popping, my favorite thing to do while browsing lemmy
Well yeah, but to say browsing all will actually let you see everything is a bit of an exaggeration if that's what you do.
Like I said. It's possible, but probably not something anyone should actually be doing.
My intended point is that browsing all is a viable way to find communities. You won't miss many communities if you browse everything. Then subscribe to what you like, block what you really dislike.
You're right that all can be overwhelming and distasteful, but at least it really is everything, as opposed to the r/all, which was heavily filtered.
And it's partially your fault, you monster! /s
oopsie woopsie
/all, top of last 12 hours has been my go-to
I usually sort All by top 12 or 6, depending on how recently I last checked. That's how I keep up with the general chatter. And I refresh my subscriptions by new once in a while to take part in the topics I enjoy as they emerge.
Depends which instance you're on!
Ah yes.
I suppose if your instance isn't federated with everyone, that would be an issue.
I don't think it's just federation, I believe for posts to appear in your instance's All feed then at least someone on that instance needs to be subscribed to the associated community
Someone need to open it from your instance but no need for a follow.
That's good
It might end up showing all the communities but it won't show you every post. Like F1 posts rarely end up in all despite having an active community. You're more likely to see posts from formuladank than formula 1.
Browse /all, sort by new, you'll see every post your Lemmy instance is aware of.
Also, mods are petty and will delete or ban you if you make a comment that goes against their agenda. Even when the comment has nothing but up votes.
The other day I got banned from A Boring Dystopia@Lemmy.world for providing verifiable historical context to the bombing of the MOVE cult. Not for taking a stance on either side of the issue, but just for fighting misinformation in the comments. I had like a 40 to 13 upvote ratio on a comment as long as a page, but the mod wants to marginalize and radicalize people so they deleted everything I posted in the thread.
Ironically, quite a boring dystopia indeed.
Did they remove the comment first or just ban you so the comment isn’t on the mod log?
The latter is one of the biggest flaws on Lemmy I’ve seen so far.
Just banned. They did delete one other comment, first, further down in the thread.
When you ban someone if you check the box to remove content it doesn’t add it to the mod log and that drives me nuts.
My last comment was in "comics" and was 9-0. I didn't agree with the "message" if the comic. Guessing the mod was the artist, maybe. Lol
