Rule #2 is possibly our most important one:

Be respectful. Everyone should feel welcome here.

Learn to disagree without being rude or disrespectful.

It can be difficult sometimes, since western social media thrives on collective outrage, and they knowingly ingrain this into us for years. But please do adhere to this rule, and it will make this place much more enjoyable.

We will not hesitate to issue temp bans (usually a day or two) for those who make everyone's experience unpleasant.Hit the report button if you see this behavior.

Thanks!

First thing I read on Lemmy and it's like I've found emotionally intelligent people finally.

I saw the same thing on Mastadon, just normal people capable of handling their emotions.

Western social media (and television) is promoting the worst in people and it can make users believe everyone is insane. So it's very nice to see this being posted.

Thanks!
