The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive) |
---|
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.
All posts must begin with YSK. If you’re a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life. _____________
:::spoiler Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason “Why” YSK:
**In your post’s text body, you must include the reason “Why” YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **
:::
:::spoiler Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
:::
:::spoiler Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That’s it.
:::
:::spoiler Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
:::
:::spoiler Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
:::
:::spoiler Rule 7- You can’t harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
:::
:::spoiler Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
:::
:::spoiler Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::
:::spoiler Rule 10- The majority of bots aren’t allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.
