btw, for those on PieFed, try out the feed ~veganism@piefed.social.

Also, is this guy seriously suggesting to stop planned parenthood?!

I think the idea was that "donut" ≡ "do not".

!youdontmattergiveup@piefed.social is a community inspired by !dontdeadopeninside@lemmy.ohaa.xyz and !nosafetysmokingfirst@sh.itjust.works.

YDMGU focuses on text that, when read a certain way, produces a positive message (such as "You Matter, Don't Give Up."), but reading it a different way produces the opposite message (such as "You Don't Matter, Give Up.").

Q. This community is just a cheap knockoff!
A. No, it isn't. The other communities focus more on the layout, and less on the text; the posted content is supposed to be read in a certain direction, but visual cues lead most people to naturally read it in a different direction. The resultant message does not have to make sense. Meanwhile, YDMGU focuses more on the content: the two messages must be opposite in meaning to each other.

Q. Ah, so all YDMGU are either DDOI or NSSF, but not all DDOI or NSSF are YDMGU?
A. Not exactly. DDOI and NSSF are very strict with the layout, but less strict with the content. In those formats, the text must be able to be read horizontally and vertically. Meanwhile, a YDMGU is less strict with the layout: text can be read horizontally, vertically, or potentially even in another manner.
