This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

This will never not be the saddest shit on this website, please go touch grass.
Alternatively, you can go fuck off instead. People who downvote and then reply to the comment as if they want to have a discussion are a fucking cancer.
Sorry it took me 12 days to respond, I was taking a break from Lemmy (you should consider it) but I just wanted to pop back in and say lol downvoted.
How can you tell who downvoted you?
Votes on Lemmy are public, mods have easy access afaik but there are sites that let anyone see who voted what on any given post or comment.
One way to tell is https://lemvotes.org/
On the one hand that’s interesting; on the other hand that could drive me nuts…
I really only check when I think somebody has engaged in the extremely poor behavior of responding to my comment and also downvoting. Actually, most of my comments don't get any downvotes.
I'm hoping that by embarrassing people who do this, they'll be less likely to do it in the future. If most of Lemmy agreed to condemn this behavior, then it will improve the platform. But as you can see from the votes in this thread, there are A LOT of people who absolutely don't give a shit about the quality of discussion on the platform.
I think you're engaging in extremely poor behaviour by whining about downvotes.
I will never tire of piling downvotes onto someone complaining about the tiniest and least important criticism of what they've said.
Get a grip. Have some perspective.
Anyway, you're wrong.
The mirror has a heated section precisely so that this happens and you can use it after a shower.
You are literally whining while complaining about whining, David. And you're engaging in the exact same behavior that I'm complaining about. These are the actions of an extremely stupid hypocritical bully. But don't worry. You won't get any more responses out of me because I block bullies.
Wow, downvoting you and explaining why is "bullying" but downvoting you and engaging in debate is "extremely poor behaviour".
Now with the insults. Also the lack of engagement on the real issue:
You’re wrong. From the start.
