MODERATORS
sir, this is a burger king.
Could I get a large whopper meal?
You got eighteen bucks?
no
Yes. Although on AskReddit, this question would've been removed by the automod because it's technically a yes or no question.
Yes because most people are from reddit : )
Nah. Not enough sex questions.
Have you sexed the sex?
But like⦠in a sexy way?
I hit that... sexually
Nope. That's over at !asklemmy@lemmy.world. This is the Lemmy version of askMarxists
everything to the left of monarchism = Marxism, apparently
though I'll agree with you that the rabid anticommunism on .world will definitely help Redditors feel at home
It's called "Ask Lemmy", so no... It's about lawnmower maintenance.
In theory yes, although the moderation is pretty lacking. So people use it as tech support, ideological rants, yes/no questions, support with actually using Lemmy, DAE, and all other manner of stuff that theoretically doesn't fit on here, and which is often low effort and doesn't prompt much discussion.
At least we don't get the hourly "What's the sexest sex you've ever sexed" question from someone who's horny on the internet for their first time.
So itβs better
Good, let's keep it that way. Lack of freedom of speech is what has made that 3rd Reich of Reddit impossible to use.
Yea - the thing is that it's called "AskLemmy" when really the whole Fediverse can access the community. I feel like it would've been better suited to call it "AskFedi" or something else. In general it doesn't really make sense to use the software as the name for stuff.
People here say "lemmy" way too much when they really should consider the Fediverse as a whole.
EDIT: Curious why people are down voting, anyone care to explain their perspective on this?
I will always call this type of discussion forum βredditβ. This format, with upvotes, downvotes, nested replies, and collapsible descendants, is reddit
