Rules
The rules may be more established as time goes on, but it's important to have a foundation to work on.
1. Follow the rules of Lemmy.world - These rules are the same as Mastodon.world's rules, which can be found here.
2. Include a community title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.
3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible.
Formatting
Please include this following format in your post:
[link text](/c/community@instance.com)
This provides a link that should work across instances, but in some cases it won't
You should also include either:
or instance.com/c/community
FAQ:
Q: Why do I get a 404?
A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.
Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?
A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn't get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn't actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.

MODERATORS
well you can hold an unpopular belief at any intensity. they are independent variables.
For example, I think store-brand (any store brand) potato chips are better than the same flavor/style of the national brand 100% of the time. I infer this is unpopular because the national brand costs $2-3x as much so there is no reason to ever buy them, yet they stay in business and I see people eating them.
But I by no means feel strongly about this. It has been probably 10 years since I mentioned it to anyone. I wouldn't turn down any potato chip no mater how expensive it is. They are all pretty good tbh.
Maybe what you are actually trying to capture is along the lines of:
this-is-actually-fascinatingnobodyKnowsHowMuchofMyLifeThisTakesUpblooilsmybloodIfeelStronglyThatEverybodyIsDoingThisWrongWhyAreYouSoWrongThisThingthatILoveor simply
StonglyHeldBeliefs.. isn't that what you want to see?Tho you know what you might really get a kick out of is this podcast: Trampoline Hall. RSS feed. You can find youtubes if you prefer.
I think you might find some good energy there.
