2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

Aside from a few MAGA shit lords in political forums, I haven't really seen the hand of the moderators in action. Most of what I seen, people are rather chill and well behaved.
I'm extremely new here but I've gone through many communities and posts.. and I'm blown away by the overall respect ppl are showing each other. Totally love that.
Like any forum this community has a lot of quirks and problems but overall I dig it here. At its core federated social media seems to be the best solution to a host of issues with the modern internet, imo.
Aye. I'm not even sure I had heard the term or seen it discussed elsewhere in my online travels. I'm digging it too.
I wish you a warm welcome to the Fediverse! Your contributions to keeping discussions genuine, fun and interesting, and reporting excessively toxic behaviour will be much appreciated.
That was my first reaction when I moved over about a year ago. Much less overall aggression.
I've seen several waves of spamming, weirdly enough mostly hyper specific local businesses from India or the Philippines. Like, best my leather finishing tool in Hyderabad.
