can we have a lemmy wide rule to not post corporate banter

Where is the issue if it is funny?

Because it's how we ended up with Elongated Muskrat thinking he's an untouchable meme lord.

I agree it's funny but just like when brands first started doing this it felt like it was a bad idea

You can't have a Lemmy wide rule for anything because that's not how federation works.

I mean, a funny is a funny no?
