Unpopular Opinion
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/

What is mental for me is that people browse the ALL feed and then complain about what it shows... I feel crazy only browsing my subbed communities all the time lol.
All is how I browsed reddit, so it's how I browse Lemmy too. Like others have said, it allows you to find new communities, and is a pleasant experience once you filter out all the trouble communities and instances.
And TBF, Lemmy doesn't have default communities and I'm too lazy/ADHD to subscribe to any of them.
That is fair, browsing my subbed subreddits for more than 10 years was my way to go for Reddit (Reddit was my replacement for Feedly, basically, so I am used to curating my stuff).
Maybe that is why, aside from the APIcalypse I don't have a grudge against Reddit, and I missed some huge drama shit and toxic bs that you'd find in r/All (spam, bots and reposts too).
If you want drama, !fediverselore@lemmy.ca and !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com have some
LMAO, no thanks, but I appreciate you sharing with me those communities (I didn't know them).
