A community dedicated to the lowest quality facts.
While the community is named after the mastodon account Low Quality Facts it is not required to post related to that account. As long as the post is low enough quality, it belongs in this community.
A low quality fact could be a few things:
- Something blatantly untrue but stated as a fact
- Something true but stated in a way that makes it sound made up
- Something so blatantly obvious it doesnt need to be said at all.
Examples:
"Louis Armstrong stored jelly beans in his trumpet, which he would discreetly eat during his performances."
"If you took a persons digestive system and stretched it out end to end, it would hurt a lot."
"Whales are notoriously bad trumpet players."
Posts can be in whatever form best displays the low quality fact.
RULES
1: Be civil. No racism or any of that non-sense
2: Only low quality facts!

Ok but sloths actually indirectly photosynthesize via the algae growing on their fur!
(I am neglecting to mention that the actual eating of said algae has yet to be observed, because this is a mid quality fact!)
