Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

For me it's been communities like /r/buildapc, /r/buildapcforme, /r/buildapcsales, /r/gamedeals, and /r/consoledeals have been useful throughout the years.

Videos/mealtimevideos was a big thing for me. They kept me entertained while I ate lunch, lol.

I'm missing a lot of more specialised things, but these are pretty broad I think

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I saw it sort of mentioned, but I think niche shitposting communities like the various okbuddy subs.

Eldritch horror Garfield is essential to any online community.

You're joking but currently a discord I'm in has a cult over a specific Garfield Minus Garfield comic, a cult that got genuinely rowdy when the comic stopped being posted.

All I'm saying, Garfield is probably an elder god

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'm probably only half joking. I love when people just do weird shit for the hell of it, it reminds me of the early internet. People doodling horrific Garfield content is weirdly wholesome and just makes me happy.

I glanced briefly, but couldn't find a topic on it. What's the stance on NSFW (i.e. porn, art, etc.)?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Most instances (servers) don't allow porn because it needs constant content moderation (laws against CP and other nasty stuff). They simply don't want the liability. But it's not forbidden to create a server that allows/hosts pornographic stuff. I bet we will see some porn servers in the near future.
