YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!

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.



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. **



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.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



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.



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.



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.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



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.

What is a tankie?

Tankie is a pejorative label generally applied to authoritarian communists, especially those who support acts of repression by such regimes or their allies. More specifically, the term has been applied to those who express support for one-party Marxist–Leninist socialist republics, whether contemporary or historical.

Yeah. Please note that phtn.app dev refused to change the default instance. I have moved back to Voyager since.

Edit: this has been resolved now. Photon has changed default instance to lemmy.ee

[–] Illecors@lemmy.cafe 5 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I haven't announced it, yet, but I've been testing ph.lemmy.cafe for some time now if that's your cup of tea.

[–] cloudless@lemmy.cafe 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Thanks. Photon is decent but I would use Voyager instead out of principle. Would you add v.lemmy.cafe?

[–] Illecors@lemmy.cafe 2 points 6 months ago

I'll consider it. Need to manage the available resources a bit first.

[–] Xylight@lemdro.id 4 points 6 months ago

I never refused. In fact, it's already been changed to lemm.ee

[–] Blisterexe@lemmy.zip 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

They're going to change it soon.

Source: I asked them on matrix

[–] cloudless@lemmy.cafe 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

That's good news. I will move back to Photon when that happens. Thanks for letting me know.

[–] cloudless@lemmy.cafe 1 points 6 months ago

Thank you very much! Now I feel much more comfortable using Photon.

Thanks again for developing it and making it open source.

He's not praising an ethnic cleansing. He elsewhere has claimed that the ethnic cleansing/concentration camp narrative is entirely western propaganda and isn't happening at all. Instead, it's some sort of... Incarceration, deradicalization, and rehabilitation program? Hell, I don't know.

Either way, he already does and says enough things to criticize, let's not make up more. It just makes us look just as dumb.
