I could do without all the fascism.
“My dad spent 10 years molesting me, my mom said to invite him to my wedding, AITA for saying no?”
US defaultism, eurocentrism, assuming everyone is male. But I think they are already here.
What you on about, brother? Isn’t this a place on the internet, here thanks to god’s favourite country ? Clearly everyone can relate to the quintessential USA-ian experience!
And what’s that about Eurocentrism, look at a map, Europe is dead center! Asia is to the east and Americas to the west… Relative to Europe!
Oh and here’s a massive /S, just in case…

Those god awful ads that disguise themselves as posts.
I was today years old when i was reminded again of this godawful expression.
Just one. JUST. ONE.
Communities almost wholly moderated by an automod bot, that is extremely strict about nonsense, and where 99% of posts are strictly forbidden.
“ALL QUESTIONS SHOULD BE IN THE MEGATHREAD!!!1111111111one” and then you peep the megathread, it’s months-full of unanswered questions because no actual community member READS the fucking megathread, and then the excuse is “BECAUZ WE WANT QUALITY CONTENT!!!” and you check the sub itself and the “quality content” is one post every 3 months by the powermod that has the power to override the bot.
This was the most annoying thing about Reddit and made getting conversations going nearly impossible. PLEASE do not bring that over.
I found one subreddit that had no active mods, and a bot that admittedly did a pretty good job, but the subreddit was totally dead as a result.
complaining about a hivemind
This
This.
And my axe!
It was the trite expressions that got blanketed after gaining popularity for me. Lookin’ at you, “fuck around find out/FAFO” 🙄
I’ve never got that joke
It’s a Lord of the Rings reference. Here’s an explanation:

“This” used get downvoted into oblivion back in the day on Reddit.
OH GOD I HATE THAT SO MUCH. I shouldn’t but I do
Edit: Thanks for the upvotes!
edit: Thanks for the gold, kind stranger!
Edit: omg my first gold and it’s about buttholes smh
Edit: you’ll never know why I got these upvotes (more on YT, but I think it applies here also)
Anti-emoji.
I’m not gonna bomb the place with them, but, occasionally if it fits, I’m throwing it in.
Cheers! 🍻
You’ve got 3 emojis in your name… I think you might use them more than most by a decent margin haha.
Do they show on my comments? I only see them on my profile page.
On jerboa, I see 😈 MedicPig 🐷 BabySaver 😈 as your name on all comments
Cool
With sync I see them in your name for every comment you leave.
Cool
I don’t see them with boost.
Me, either.
There’s a lot of emoji haters here
I installed a blocker in firefox.
hell yeah 🤙
Suppression of discussion through mega/weekly/monthly threads.
Post requirements that result in posting anything nearly impossible.
Fucking stupid rules for mods to abuse with their dork ass internet powarz.
Clear corporate astroturfing.
Karma-farming. Please lets just be our genuine, authentic, awful selves.
It helps that we have no karma. Also, some instances bouncing downvotes helps a bit.
What’s bouncing downvotes?
Some servers ignore downvotes from other servers.
Thank you I have yet to learn a lot stuff about lemmy
Charging developers for API access after they go out of their way to make products that greatly improve the experience.
Constant reposts and lack of any critical thinking or engagement. It is insane to think that every post I have put on here so far, I am new, has had more interaction that the gigantic ‘active’ user base of Reddit.
Every single comment thread on anything that reaches r/all quickly devolving into the most unfunny and unoriginal jokes and/or references. Regardless of how grim/serious the original post was.
Especially egregious: someone quotes a Simpsons/South Park/whatever episode and the next 20 comments are people quoting the rest of the episode
We get it. You watched a hugely popular TV show. So did everybody. That’s why it was hugely popular.
And my axe!
I dunno I kinda liked that. Something something broken arms
ngl I kinda liked that to some degree
