Community Rules

You must post before you leave

Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).

Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.

Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.

Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".

Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.

Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.

Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.

Avoid AI generated content.

Avoid misinformation.

Avoid incomprehensible posts.

No threats or personal attacks.

No spam.

The original 196 community mods embaces becoming PTBs and instantly sudokus all goodwill and trust by locking 196 and attempting to move it to lemmy.world without any community feedback.

They then post a we're sorry you don't like our decisions we'll get back to you after voting but we gotta wait till everyone's awake(this is what I got out of their half-assed post, also what do they mean??? Like you're gonna wait till everyone's simutaneously awake really?)

They then unlock the community ~~for only lemmy.world users~~ (after seeing the blacklash on the same post and many others) and then proceeds to fail at coaxing people to come back and post to the original community instead of the new alternative here.


They essentially fired a nuke at the community which is also their headquarters, then makes a half-assed apology?, and finally begs people to come back and rebuild the community that was destroyed by their own hands.

I'd recommend also checking out @spujb's post as I might be missing some details here.

Edit:
Please see spujb's correction below🫡

That first sentence is just wild. Three layers of urban dictionary deep.

All Correct except

They then unlock the community for only lemmy.world users

They didn’t intend the unlock to be instance specific—it was a federation issue of some kind where the unlock didn’t successfully propagate everywhere. It should (?) be available for all instances now.

Fair enough and thanks for the clarification!🤗
