Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

Blocking the instances, too? Damn you must be really mad over this.
And, like, wouldn't they pretty quickly run out of instances? Or at least end up blocking the major ones and barely seeing any content on their feed.
That's good. As regular users you don't want to interact with this kind of pessimism anyways.
Fair point. I’m not nearly as active here as I was on Reddit so that’s perfectly reasonable.
I guess I should have been more specific in my post. I don’t block the large communities like news and whatnot, but it’s the really tiny obscure ones with a single person spamming them to get them off the ground. The subsections of subsections of hobbies type of thing. I don’t want to see the content of a dozen types of Linux distro, or someone making the same type of art 5 times in a row on my all feed. I did come across as a bit crass on my post, that’s on me. I’m not as jaded as I come across, just annoyed at some of the quirks of All I notice every day.
