  • Wow, you identified the entire reason I have avoided meme communities online. Glad to know I wasn't alone in that. Thanks for making this! Now I can add some online humor back into my day.

  • Anyone know of a community where moderators can get support moderating?

    Jump

  • Idea: Allow community mods to edit post titles of other users?

    Jump

  • "Please edit your post title to [whatever it should be edited to to reflect community standards]" in the comments from a mod would also resolve the problems you have. In my opinion looking anal about rule enforcement > potential for abuse.

    Although I do think if flairs are implemented, mods changing flair would probably be a good option—far less room to change what the original poster is saying to make them look bad.

  • Eh, there were some nice things on Reddit. We don't have to be a clone but we don't have to resist everything that looks like them. I'm explicitly here because I wanted a forum-like social media that wasn't Reddit; I wanted a Reddit replacement. I would like to leave certain artifacts of Reddit behind, but I do like actual Reddiquette (that admittedly did not get followed in practice, it does not here either) of upvoting good contributions to a conversation (including opposing opinions) and reserving downvotes for people who come in with hostility, spam/off-topic posts, etc. I liked communities there where I could talk about things I was interested in.

  • I inaccurately assumed the way I expressed myself would be interpreted as "when I was 12, I saw images that were reposted frequently on Instagram that contained text attesting to hating small talk," and did not have it in my mind as a possibility that my comment would be taken as a statement on my current age. I made an inaccurate assumption. I am currently over 21.

    Although when I was 12, although I didn't talk about my age or lie about it in text discussions I did still use websites that were only allowed to be used by those 13 and up, or those 18 and up. I typed very similarly to the way I do now. For all you know I am a filthy liar and actually just a 12-year old with a good grasp of English, attempting to seem more credible (and evade any possible TOS violations and account bans) by telling you I am over 21 years old ;)

  • I suppose I'm coming from being 12 and seeing very reposted images with text about "I hate small talk, can't we talk about something meaningful" on tumblr and Instagram, and from when I did still follow ADHD and autism communities on the internet, and when I browsed Reddit in general, and saw rants about small talk… used to seeing the word "hate" in conjunction with it. Sorry.

    I also agree, different strokes for different folks :) It's okay to not enjoy small talk, and it is also okay for me to enjoy it.

  • Sorry! I guess it just did not federate over to me. If you check my instance's copy of this it says "trash snacks"

  • I love information dumps.

    I also seem to be the rare internet user who does not hate small talk. I've never really seen a problem with it and now thanks to the internet the one problem I see is "unpopular amongst internet users, may make them unhappy." Wonder if this is an internet/real life split, or if everyone but me hates it but smiles and pretends in real life so I think more people are fine with it than actually are. I guess I interpret it as a person sharing their genuine thoughts. Sometimes I look outside and think "it's a nice day!" so why wouldn't other people vocalize their thoughts amongst the same lines? I guess I see it as a common shared experience and attempt to connect over something "easy" like that since a lot of people will agree that yes, it is a nice day. (If you don't, some might take offense but I'd love to hear why you disagree—invites more discussion!) Then again, I'm also an extrovert, so I'm just like "Yes! Social interaction!!!"

    Stuff like this, not sharing in a lot of common complaints about neurotypical interaction, makes me feel too neurotypical for the neurodivergents, but I also do have ADHD and autism and my fair share of social struggles so I'm also too neurodivergent for the neurotypicals. For what it's worth if I know you don't like small talk I'll try to remember and accommodate that.

  • Thank you for helping with your friend's transport. When I was in college I had to rely on friends who had their own cars with them to get me to the donation center.

  • Nicole has died...?

    Jump

  • I read that the body incident had normal stuff pasted under it, so this might actually be the incident still, since I did not check the contents of that imgur link.

  • New Community - Theremin!!

    Jump

  • I have seen one get used, and played in a musical theatre pit that called for a theremin player who could also play trumpet. That's the only relevant stuff I have to say. Best wishes with the community!

  • Nicole has died...?

    Jump

  • If I were spamming people to hell and back I'd find some small Twitch streamer and use their face instead of my own, then use some friends' lives as loose inspiration to make an identity. No way in hell would I want consequences for spamming blowing back on me, identifiable via my own face (reverse image search perhaps, or an acquaintance on Lemmy) and information. I'm pretty sure whoever is behind the Nicole spam is not the person in the pictures.

    Although I appreciate your goodwill towards people who annoy you, too often I see ill will and I wonder if it is the usual hyperbolic frustration venting and they don't actually want to hurt this person, or if it's a "you actually want to hurt them? I thought you were joking…" situation.

  • Nicole has died...?

    Jump

  • Oh boy. I saw I got a Direct Message from preprintingstem@lemmy.cif.su with an imgur link that was supposed to just display, but luckily instead I just saw ![](https://i.imgur.com/XeQAaBj.png) and no image. Didn't open because wasn't sure if it was NSFL spam, eventually opened and saw the usual Nicole copypasta. I was going to go to the Nicoled community and ask, as well as report spam from an account not called nicole for once, it's locked, so now I'm here. Absolutely not checking that image in case it's a dead body picture and not the usual Nicole.

  • I'm so proud of what I created and know I'll never see it finished. So I figured I'd share it here! I'm particularly proud of how even my stitches are, especially at the end of the project!

    Genuinely, clever solution. As someone who wants to wear shawls more often thanks for posting the pattern!

    In my very amateur opinion you have nice tensioning, at least better than mine haha.

    I tend to go on long hiatuses from my fiber arts hobbies and I'm back on a crocheting and knitting kick

    Nice to know I am not the only one who does that.
