Corporate shills.

I’m feeling insecure and shy, please rate my anus.

"Sir, you have just won the internet" "Thanks for the gold kind stranger" "I too choose this guy's [placeholder]" And the other corny overused reddit lines

Can we stop talking about Reddit? Let it go.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yes, Lettit!

Hey people grieve at different speeds. Some people got to acceptance on the same day, others are still in denial.

This

(I'm so sorry. I couldn't resist)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

You maybe should have tried harder to resist.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

“This.”

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

People farming karma on subs like /r/aww.

Like not even reposters. I’m instead talking about the people who camp that sub and ruin threads by criticizing diet, etc.

If you post a photo of a dog that’s even slightly overweight, God have mercy on your cursed soul.

Karma. I feel like that will push Lemmy in a way that isn't healthy.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Official NFTs collectible.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Shitty repost bots. Actively ban bots pretending to be humans.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Ads.

Fuck ads.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Please don't let /c/asklemmy become like /r/askreddit, which had half of the front-page posts being the same sex related questions every month.

"Women of reddit, what non sexual thing that guys so makes you horny?"

"What is the sexiest thing you regret doing?"

"How many cocks have you sucked while your cat judges you while waiting for you to feed it?"

It was bullshit.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I don't know why the mods of r/AskReddit still accepts these kind of posts when it would be more appropriate to do an NSFW r/AskReddit (if it doesn't already exist).

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I hope that the mod-user relationship will be healthier here. (Bias, I was a reddit moderator.)

Some reddit mods were crap, this is true. Powermods and sub collectors were real. They did shit up a few communities.

But these people were a very small proportion of all moderators. Most moderators I met were chill, and just wanted to chip in to their respective communities to give back, in a way. Volunteering for internet janitor duty, because no matter how much people use the term as an insult it turns out public spaces need janitors - or they get filled with shit, trash, graffiti (and not the cool kind either, mostly badly drawn swastikas). It's not a position that should be glorified, or anything, because that's weird, but I hope that some semblance of basic respect can be maintained here on Lemmy - both ways, meaning no powermods but also no defaulting to assuming mods suck.

To stop talking about Reddit. Reddit is dead to me!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

r/the_donald or anything like it. Kindly fuck off with all of that shit.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Communities with videos of violence and assault, justice porn etc. I hate those, this is honey for conservatives and fascists, they love it and it disgusts me.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Other Redditors. Can we just be on Lemmy and move the fuck on?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (2 children)

"Thanks for the gold kind stranger"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

You forgot to add the "Edit: " part because they always have to come back and edit every 2 minutes.

Edit: "Whoa my first gold! Thanks!"

Edit2: "Wow this is silly, thanks everyone!"

Edit3: "While you're here, let me tell you my life story."

Uhhhg. Reddit award acceptance speeches like anyone cares.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago

"Oh wow thank you for giving a giant corporation your money because of something I said!"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The ragebait fake text message screenshots that plague subs like antiwork.

Wow, your dickhead boss is stupid enough to put all of that in writing and has the exact same style of writing, spelling and grammar as you do? Isn’t that a coincidence!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago

/r/nothingeverhappens

This is posted in sarcasm as I always hated that kind of response

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Bots. Endless bots where you don't know if the comment or post is a real person. Sign ups need a barrier to filter out bots.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

People who don’t know/acknowledge the difference between “free speech” and “hate speech”

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

unfortunately lemmy already has those people, but luckily enough they seem to organize in tidy communities that are easy to defederate

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I couldn't see anyone else mentioning it so I will. Ads. My mind is at peace without them
