Ask Lemmy

Questions like “When you’re sexing some sexy sex, how many sex do you sex?”

Let’s keep the immature high school/sad old desperate man horniness out of here.

Going to a sub of strictly like minded people and posting popular opinions for karma.

"Thanks for the gold" and other "Edit: this blew up" type bullshit.

Any time someone says "obligatory [anything]" I want to scream.

Probably the biggest one would be needlessly hostile or mocking responses.

Centralization of anything. Powermods shouldn't be a thing, and major central instances are a bit sketchy too. No offense to ruud et al.

Shutting down questions with any variation "just Google it" It always irks me when someone goes "bro you know Google exists right" like if I wanted to Google it I wouldn't be asking it here

Reposting.

How's about they stop trying to migrate Reddit subs over to Lemmy as communities? That would be nice. I don't want a Reddit substitute. I want a new thing that puts Reddit entirely in the past. I want a fresh start, not a Reddit clone. Reddit sucked for a lot of reasons. I could go on and on. Stop replying to comments with "this" as well. But, mostly, I'd like to see people from Reddit moving over to here with zero Reddit nostalgia. Say goodbye to your favorite Reddit subs, stop trying to re-create them over here in the Fediverse. Instead, have some imagination and create new, original communities and kick the whole Reddit vibe to the curb for once and for all.

I would say circlejerking. The Bean meme was very Reddit like, but maybe it is necessary to build an online community to have posts like that?

Edit: added a word and comma.

Edit 1: wow guys thank you so much.

Edit 2: Rip my inbox.

Edit 3: Ok guys Im going to sleep.

Pointless comment trying to be a contrarian to just add /s at the end.

Shut the fuck up

The SFW porn network needs not to be called the SFW porn network. No communities named CarPorn or UniformPorn or, worse, AbandonedPorn or AnimalPorn.

Asking why they're being downvoted when they clearly have more upvotes. Also, starting a comment with "I'm going to get downvoted for this but".

[BLANKS] of Lemmy: "what's the sexiest sex you've ever sexed?"

Having spez as CEO

THIS

Power moderators. There is no justifiable reason for one person to own hundreds of major subs.

/r/EnoughXSpam

What is the point of a community about hating seeing spam of a certain topic if all the community does is spam about the topic?

Probably the weirdos that drown in an ocean of their own cum whenever a woman is mentioned.

This. So much this.

It's amazing for how much this place is supposed to be decentralized and open, hours much you all want to control messaging, themes, and already are having fight over fight on who to defederate from.

"You win the internet!" Anything "sir" or "gentlesir" leave that shit in the 2010s

Cynicism and despair. There are no better words to describe reddit today than these two. Why do they argue endlessly over nothing? Because to them, nothing matters.

You can see that sentiment start popping up in the comments with the newest influx, but I hope sincerity will win out in the end this time.

Unfunny puns.

Although I'm sure this is highly optimistic, I'd love to avoid the toxic behaviors that were free to grow on Reddit. The most hateful words I've ever read were on Reddit; I'm already seeing it happen here. It would be wonderful if discourse was welcomed here and promoted without all of the toxic back and forth. What was more harmful was a large amount of one-sided bans dealt out by mods of a certain variety. As long as the mods agreed with someone's stance it didn't matter how obscene a comment made, was. Let's try and be better than Reddit in more than one way.

If this hasn't been said yet, "this is the way"
