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.

But also you should generally just pick a primary to vote in. You are voting in primaries, right?
Some states have open primaries, you just vote in whatever one you want. Not every state requires registering with a party to vote in the primary.
Nope. I really dislike both parties that are going to win. It doesn't matter who is the candidate for either party because at the national level my district will always go Republican anyway for representative, senators, and president.
I only vote to vote against Republicans and tell myself that maybe my vote mattered for some random local position. No interest in actually keeping up with the mediocre Democratic candidates, and trying to influence the Republican party is useless because my fellow idiots still keep absolutely obvious villains like Kobach back in power. Not worth getting harassed by fundraisers.
I don't like Republicans either, but I still vote in the Republican primary. You have a duty to yourself and your country to vote.
If you don't vote, you're just allowing others to choose for you. How do you think that's gonna go?
I do vote, just not in the primaries. My stste requires me to be a member of a party to vote in their primary.
There is no chance in hell that I will be a registered Republican to vote in their primary, and the Dems aren't worth the effort here.
