Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

.world is also the most commonly linked instance on reddit, so half the time you're just dealing with angry redditors. Generally every time I say "wow this is so disappointing to see" it's a .world post and the other half of the comments are trying to fight back against them. I think it's just the nature of online communities that they get more toxic as they grow.
You're definitely dodging more toxicity than you are positivity with blocking .world, every time I've seen just the worst comment ever it's from .world. There might be an app or way to block the comments but not the posts from an instance, since nearly all .world posts seem fine (you could ask in the app community on lemmy, they're generally super friendly). Sorry I can't give better advice. Me personally I just stick to the positive communities and only brave the .world trenches if I'm feeling up to it (and make heavy use of blocking toxic communities)
