Community Rules
You must post before you leave
Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).
Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.
Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.
Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".
Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.
Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.
Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.
Avoid AI generated content.
Avoid misinformation.
Avoid incomprehensible posts.
No threats or personal attacks.
No spam.
Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

Oh thank you so much my sponsor fantasy phalic was really worried by that word
jks on u, it doesn’t load
Won't somebody think of the advertisers!
D*d yo* k*ow y*u c*n s*y FUCK *n th* i*tern*t
Well fuck me!
Hey look, it worked!
Fuckity fuck fuck!
I fucking hate the Scunthorpe Problem and its consequences on the modern internet.
Edit: Also, fuck Algospeak too.
oh f*ck, try not to get unalived by a pewpew from the tiktok police
It is useful to know at least a few words in algospeak. I think that "music festival means protest" is probably a good thing to know, considering how things are going right now.
ooo, algospeak is a new term to me. i like it
Whoa really?
F***

This post was automatically censored for our advertisers protection - Hugs and kisses, Google/Meta/X/Reddit/Literally any platform that treats it's users as the product
Fuck

Fucking assholes.
I've just given up replying to comments there, I know the chances are less than 50% that it'll ever be read and there's even a chance it'll just get deleted by automoderation straight up.

Not everywhere, unfortunately. But, at least here you can. For the time being.
Several years ago, I got an account suspension and a comment deleted on a hobby forum I was super active on. The offense? I used the word "clusterfuck". The kicker was that at the time, search engines still supported queries like "fuck site:www.abcdef.com" and would give you a list of results specific to that website, so I tested it out, and sure enough a few dozen different threads showed up, some new, some years old, with the word "fuck" in them. Sadly, that forum is nearly dead now, partly from the puritanical moderation and lack of communication / responsiveness from those in charge.
Also, the one that irks me and seems to be fairly common. A lot of sites will have rules against using slurs and profanity, but then are somehow completely okay with someone using the term "cocksucker". That term is pretty much exclusively used with negative connotation and in homophobic context, at best it's perhaps merely misogynistic, as though that's any better. But quite often allowed. Even on the Reddit, may the lord save you if you call someone the r-word, but outside of a few specific subreddits, it's apparently perfectly fine to call someone a cocksucker.
The r-word is disliked for being ableist and having an extensive history, not for being advertiser unfriendly. Cocksucker on the other hand would be much easier to reclaim, as it simply denotes a common action that like half of humanity would willingly do.
Not according to insert random Lemmy user here
oh fuck you're right
Fuck.
I’m torn. Yeah, I personally think self-censoring is pretty silly and pointless, but on the other hand, I don’t want to mock people for expressing themselves in a way they’re comfortable with.
Are they expressing themselves the way THEY are comfortable with, or the way the think advertisers will allow?
That’s part of the problem. I don’t know, and I don’t wanna assume the worst when I don’t know their motivation.
Choosing not to swear is fine. Choosing to swear is fine. Choosing to swear but leaving out a few letters is ridiculous behaviour and deserving of mockery. If someone chooses to do something silly then being laughed at is a predictable consequence.
I hadn’t looked at it that way. That’s a really good take.
No. Fucking. Way.
Edit: zOMG it worked!
Big if true
Doesn't ml filter out any word the devs think are bad to say?
I mean, if ur using .ml in the first place, thats on you

Jesus christ dude, there are Americans here.
“You step into the road, and if you don’t keep your feet, there is no knowing where you might be swept off to.”
It doesn’t work! All I get are Lord of the Rings quotes. Is there a setting that I’m missing?
