Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.

Rule: You must post before you leave.

MODERATORS
 

Please incorporate the word rule in your post titles

Here are the things that get you banned

  • Saying anything remotely iffy with a lemmygrad, threads, or hexbear account.
  • Prejudice of any kind
  • Tankie behaviour
  • Nazi behaviour
  • Authoritarian behaviour
  • Genocide denial
  • Anything else that is clearly bad

Ban length varies, and is mostly based off of whether or not I think you will change your behavior. I have banned certain people for upwards of 2000 days.

Things that get your post/comment removed

  • AI generated content
  • Anything in the banlist
  • Posts that are so off topic that they don’t fit on 196 at all
  • Moldy memes (old memes, crusty memes, irrelevant memes. The type of things you’d see on your aunt’s Facebook page or Elon musk’s Twitter account with a laughing emoji as the caption) Except on moldy monday. On this day and only this day moldy memes are not only allowed, but encouraged. The crustier the better. The type of thing that’s been reposted at least 2,000 times with filters and bad crops and watermarks and hopefully minions. please caption with moldy rule
  • Corpoposting
  • IRL GORE IS NOT PERMITTED UNDER ANY CONDITION.

NSFW RULES

NSFW Content is now fully permitted BUT it must be tagged. Any NSFW content that has not been tagged and blurred will be removed. Content warnings should also be added to the title in brackets. Example: [penis] or: [explicit description of sex]. Non-sexualized breasts of any gender are not considered inappropriate and therefore do not need to be blurred/tagged. Yes, even female breasts.

If you have any issues, please reach us at [email protected] or our public matrix channel PLEASE do not DM me, as I am not consistently available and tend to step away from the mantle for weeks to months at a time.

Thank you so much for this move, this is so much nicer and less hostile of an instance!

notice how these are downvoted to crap and you would have to actively seek them out to see them?

Notice how the admins don't give a shit about genocide denial on their instance?

Move to the worst instance with one of the worst email providers RIP.

worst instance

Saying this with a lemmy.ml account is something

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Mentions .ml

doesn't look at account age

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Fair point, doesn’t change the fact that lemmy.world isn’t the worst instance. It’s definitely far from good though

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Lol who considers Proton one of the worst email providers? Even the recent drama is more foreboding than indicative of a current problem with the service.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

The worst email providers are Nazi supporters. Sounds like you need to read the rules above.

Funny how those privacy first free speech services work.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

we use proton mostly because it's the easiest to share an account overseas for free with. we didn't really need anything fancy

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You need to add a space between the - and the text to format it as a list

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

this was how it was on blahaj but I'll try that out

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

LW is running 0.19.3, that might be why

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

honestly, I think it's just because I originally wrote the rules before I knew how to write in markdown. I'll spruce them up tomorrow
