What are Lemmy's unwritten rules?
I’ll start. Non serious answers also welcome
- Linux (Linux)
- FOSS or die
- Video content should have been text
- Not caring a LOT about privacy makes you a non-lemmy normie
(…)
Mr_Blott, If a post from the Linux communities pops up on your feed, it is your duty as a Windows user to comment “wELL I dOn’t HavE tHAt prOBleM bECauSE I uSe wINdOws” to stop Linux users commenting the opposite on every fucking thread about Windows
kalkulat, 
But whatever they do they should not use the word it’s in their comment, or else we see something like itAಠ€’s … and thattAಠ€’s harder to read.
Mr_Blott, LolA%€d at that
kewwwi, can we be the internet community that doesn’t pretend we’re a tight knit group with injokes and ‘right’ opinions?
there’s already enough of those and I hate navigating their dumb shit.
NotSpez, Sure, that can be a new unwritten rule ;)
cheese_greater, [mutters] Curses
sock, yeah those unwritten rules are why i hardly want to tell anyone about this site. its a bunch of comp sci nerds that finally have a platform to talk to be mildly social
and the humor is very par for course of compsci nerds. dumb, contrived, an obscure reference with a random jpeged gif in the background, etc. not funny.
cheese_greater, I have to fight you on the
not funnytake. I disagree and my oeuvre demonstrates that to the contrary in my respectful submission
sock, yo just your other 2 replies in this thread alone, im taking about you. youre the unfunny reddit compsci nerd.
“[mutters]”
cheese_greater, I’m sorry I don’t satisfy ur standards :P
XbSuper, It’s a bit late for that. It’s already everywhere, and it’s terrible.
cheese_greater, Tildes is super strict against that, I got banned for making a joke about wine jelly being rendered into candy
WineGums
Banned!
Also, JAIL! Belive it or not…
RememberTheApollo_, We shall talk about communism and Linux.

letsgo, Don’t know. I haven’t found them yet.
phorq, 42: Always know where your towel is.
43: Star Trek memes or you’re the next away mission’s red shirt.
hitmyspot, And not on a tip to Risa. Yno what I’m sayin.
Tattorack, 
I’m more of a TNG guy so I’ll be fine in a red shirt.
muse, 
18: Don't feed the tankies
19: if you didn't like Star Trek before, go to Risa and count the lights till you do
Stamets, 
There are 4 of those lights. Or is there 5…
wheeldawg, Oh shit he’s starting to turn evil.
I suggest you count REALLY carefully here.
echodot, Were going to find Geordie a girlfriend if it kills us.
Tattorack, … I count four.
thanks_shakey_snake, Your YouTube link should have been a Piped link but it’s okay.
You’re free to enjoy the lemmit.online content, but don’t interact with it or you will appear confused.
Don’t stress about upvotes/downvotes-- They’re even more made up here than usual.
Never pass up an opportunity to bitch about ads, Chrome, Reddit, capitalism, Arch users, streaming services, or your favorite Lemmy client.
Do not attempt the Picard Maneuver unless you’re sure you know what you’re doing.
Tattorack, Which Picard maneuver, though?
The short jump one or the straightening uniform one?
sbv, Chrome BAD, Firefox GOOD. If you disagree, you are WRONG.
cheese_greater, Librewolf BEST
netchami, Absolutely
Tattorack, No pocket and comes reinstalled with UBO. So… Basically just Firefox but with one or two settings switched off and UBO.
… What’s exactly the point here?
kratoz29, If you disagree, you are WRONG.
This only applies until Chrome gets rid of the adblockers next year, if you decide to stay with Chrome I confidently think that you are wrong.
job3rg, Rule 34. Doesnt exist here
fushi01, 
Boy do I have some news for you…
job3rg, I made a quick slook. Only 1 post per month. (Unless theres more i didnt find)
Tattorack, I dunno man… There’s already someone right here in the comments with “yiffit.net” as their account…
Metal_Zealot, 
Each community, at some point in time, has to have someone with severe a case of Main Character Syndrome make a post that refers to another post where their feelings got hurt cuz their initial post didn’t get the exact kind of attention they wanted, which then results in a total shit fit in the comments.
I’ve seen it happen numerous times in my short time on Lemmy. Especially on !memes.
People need to learn how to just suck it up and move on ffs. I swear it’s the r*dditard mentality leaking in here.
Tattorack, Reddit has this too. Especially on subs with younger audiences… Or really old entitled audiences.
Teon, 
Rule 854. kbin is superior!
rustyriffs, is it though, and why?
Teon, A. It's an unwritten rule on Lemmy.
B. kbinners are not lem-ings.
rustyriffs, Nah, Lemmy is better.
rtxn, If you are an arch user, like myself, you must announce it at every opportunity.
Also, mandatory GNOME hate.
KISSmyOS, Gnome is the worst desktop environment, except for all those other DE’s that I’ve tried from time to time.
magic_lobster_party, Mandatory Ubuntu hate as well.
I use Ubuntu btw.
cheese_greater, I feel its almost like you all shoukld just stop presenting your OS bona fides unless its 1) solicited explicitly + 2) its explicitly relevant to the conversation even if 1) is not fulfilled
rtxn, But how will people know I use arch btw?
cheese_greater, I fucking love this, thank you comical stranger
PsychedSy, I failed a gentoo stage 2 install 20 years ago.
KISSmyOS, Gentoo has stages? What’s the end boss like?
PsychedSy, Not sure. I didn’t make it far.
rtxn, The end boss is swallowing your pride and installing Debian.
netchami, Installing from a stage 1 tarball back in 2002
SnokenKeekaGuard, 
- We’re pirates
phorq, Sharing is caring, and that includes data… unless it’s personal data.
netchami, Exactly
zepheriths,
- Don’t be a os elitist
BeardedGingerWonder, Something something arch
darcy, 
btw
Blackout, 
- no fucking swearing
- no paying for content if it can be pirated
- cats are our overlords
cheese_greater, This is life
hungryphrog, Bend the knee to cats, the only true masters of humanity! (and also download a fucking car)
cheese_greater, This shouldnt need to be said ahahahaha
TheDoctorDonna, (edited ) Even if you could download a car someone would find a way to nickle and dime you to death with maintenance and insurance. c/fuckcars! or gtfo
Edit cause I don’t know how to link communities lol. That didn’t work as intended.
hungryphrog, Well, can I download a bicycle then?
TheDoctorDonna, Technically yes. There’s lots of open source plans online to build your own bicycle.
But even hypothetically a bike would be preferable to a car for everyone involved.
TheDoctorDonna, These are my every day rules.
XbSuper, I hate cats so much. It makes the internet difficult.
cheese_greater, Boooo! Aha
