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
I’m not into Lemmy because it’s got all the niche communities I need in my life. I’m into it because the fediverse in general is a FOSS, decentralized, “by the people for the people” alternative to enshittified ads&engagement social media.
We’re in the early stages of this thing. We’re all still playing with the building blocks of what this will hopefully become one day.
I came for the cause as well. Im just having a hard time finding my people.
Memes don’t cut it.
I guess I am at a point where I can find enough interesting stuff that I can accept “If you build it, they will come” for now.
Basically, I’m not expecting the finished product yet, but things look promising. Hopefully the necessary momentum is there.
