This has happened to me several times since I started using Lemmy lol
Post food in food porn. Gets ridiculed because my food is an abomination and should not be called by the foods name. See others post butchered regional food that i definitely know the locals will not recognize as that food. That post gets praised for putting an effort. WTF?
Is it really that in depth? I mean good looking food is what I'm there for.
What I expected was food appreciation no matter how it looks or how it strays from the traditional recipe. But what I got was someone telling me that what I posted was not a traditional food yet I'm seeing other non tradional food getting praised.
I simply want food appreciation not food gatekeeping.
Honestly, just keep posting. You'll bend them or they'll start posting their own interests.

I've tried posting in metalcore, dnb, and phonk and the users don't get mad at me or anything but there's just not that much engagement.
