hmmm

4665 readers
29 users here now

Internet as an art

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

I will introduce more rules later and when I finish doing that I will make an announcement post about that.

For overall temporary guide check out the rules here: https://www.reddit.com/r/hmmm/wiki/rules/

I won't be moving all of them here but I will keep most of them.

You know that pics don't need to be real, right? Same been on reddit, all it needs is to fit the spirit of the community.

Same been on reddit

So we just do whatever reddit does now?

Bruuuuuuuuh. You realise that most people moved here from reddit 1+ year ago? I've been following this community for years before I quit reddit and this commnity always had it's own specific set of rules. I know it may shock you but ~99% of all lemmy communities are in fact based on reddit communities. I know we hate reddit but let's think for ourselves please...

You could post pictures in a community called "photoshopped memes" and every post would have people in it telling everyone it's fake. Some people are special like that.

Dude asked “how”. I answered how.

Obvious photoshops are different. This example is funny because it's obviously not real. The truck one is intentionally pretending to be real and not entertaining at all. That's the difference.

Not entertaining at all? What are you talking about?

pretending to be real

Meanwhile the image: Looks photoshopped AF.
