Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!


How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.


If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.



Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)


  • If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
  • If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].


Rules:

1. NO POLITICS


Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.


2. Be civil.


Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...


Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.


5. No trolling.


This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.



Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

I'm playing whack a mole constantly, blocking all these anime subs!

What's crazy to me is that I browse all and have very little blocked and I don't see the huge amounts of whatever the posts are complaining about (except if the complaint is about US politics). Rarely see more than 1 or 2 anime related posts in about 2 communities. Almost never see porn of any kind; let alone furry stuff and I'm on an instance meant for it.

Makes me wonder if they're just getting a bug that some apps have where it just keeps repeating the same 5 posts as you scroll instead of correctly updating. That was the biggest issue I had with Connect and Liftoff.

I'm the same. I browse All and don't remember the last time I saw any anime communities. I see porn occasionally, but it doesn't bother me. When I find a community I like, I subscribe to it. If it's a community I don't like, I'll block it. Once Lemmy grows more, I'll probably just switch over to my subscribed feed.

I ran across a bunch of anime and weird fucking sexual anime pics until blocking. Not a big enough deal to make a thread but wanted to share that it does happen and my browsing/subs are mostly tech/networking, politics and formula1

Hmm yeah, definitely complainers should expand in what their setup is.
