Alias's rule
(sh.itjust.works)
Get thefuck out, and move on.
That's unmaintained pay-respects is a maintained replacement.
I love how it's not just a fork, it's a rewrite in Rust. Of course it is.
quietly cargo installs pay-respects in his corner
Sync (which does have messed up formatting lol
Yeah that looks like an issue with their markdown rendering. I tried to look how they render markdown, but sync is closed source :(
As far as I know, <link> is valid markdown syntax and supported by the official Lemmy UI.

I alias rm to rm -r for easy folder deleting
UGH that shit.
rm deletes a file. It can't delete a directory, you have to use
rmdir to delete a directory...as long as there's nothing in that directory. If there's anything in the directory, you have to know to use
rm -r to delete a directory and its contents, and no
rmdir -r isn't right somehow!

But how would you run sl, the steam locomotive?
I know you're joking but:
\sl or command sl.
I'd say "check your shell documentation" but they're both almost impossible to search for. They both work in Bash. Both skip aliases and shell functions and go straight to shell builtins or things in the $PATH.
There's also /usr/bin/sl but you knew that.

alias dir='ls'
alias cd.. "cd .."
alias cp='rm -rf'
Some people want to watch the world burn.
In order to improve your accuracy might I suggest:
alias i='sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root /'
alias s='sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root /'
alias sl='sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root /'
alias ll='sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root /'
...
Etcetera. It will make sure you are punished for typos
