Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

MODERATORS
You're gonna see that a lot on Lemmy unless you fall in line and don't say anything they wanna call a "dog whistle".
Man... Mods just make shit up when they ban mostly.
Reviewing modlog is very telling. Reddit mod culture is svery strong here but at least now we have reciepts.
News and politics subs are just DNC shill ops at this point. Block and don't give them engagement.
I understand that we are pro kamala here but a shill op is a shill op. I expect people here to know better.
You'd have loved to s see the mod log for r/Artisanvideos. So many people thought it was the ideal place to plug their shit with high traffic and low post count. I was not polite about banning them. Especially stupid goddamn Gruyere cheese. I had to blacklist their YouTube channel.
