- Respect differences of opinion. Civil discussion/debate is fine, arguing is not. Criticise ideas, not people.

- Remember we have all chosen to be here voluntarily. Respect the spent time and effort people have spent creating posts in order to share something they find amusing with you.
- Swearing in general is fine, swearing to insult another commenter isn’t.
- No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia or any other type of bigotry.
- No incitement of violence or promotion of violent ideologies.

I've been downvoted for saying facts just like I did with my previous comment here so I wouldn't read into it as this is what the community for sure wants. I checked the rules and it was not there so I commented that, it's not an opinion but people get triggered all the same because they are used to reddit's rules and assume lemmy is like reddit. But it is not, the different instances have their different rules and communities have rules on top of that. If you want to change the rules that's up to you. Generally a vote might be nice, one that everyone can see and it isn't hidden in this comment chain (the OP of this chain is already hidden by downvotes) and isn't determined by only 20 people. Personally, it's a waste of time because you can easily lookup the tweet and find the person. But if people want it to be this way because they think it "helps", I guess that's how it will be. But at least the community will have a voice even if it is something I feel is a waste. I feel more irritated by the constant censoring of "bad words" and don't care so much about the usernames, after all it can be easily looked up if you want. I wouldn't downvote a post over it like OP said but I can see where the frustration comes from, how corporations want to sanitize the internet. Anyway, thanks for listening to my rambling.
