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.
6. Defend your opinion
This is a bit of a mix of rules 4 and 5 to help foster higher quality posts. You are expected to defend your unpopular opinion in the post body. We don't expect a whole manifesto (please, no manifestos), but you should at least provide some details as to why you hold the position you do.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

Finally a REAL unpopular opinion!
A crinkle fry is just a tater tot that won't commit.
Steak fries are the superior form of spuds.
Thank you for “tater tot that won’t commit.” I legit love you for that, because I also love tots. BUT, they are definitely NOT fries. Too much potato mush in steak fries. Maybe if they’re double battered, but still. Crinkle cut is an ideal crust to potato guts ratio.
You're welcome. A respectable unpopular opinion merits a respectable response.
Potato gut ratio difference is negligible. If you boil the potato parts (no matter how you cut them) then let them dry that releases starch that makes for a better crunchier skin when frying. That's the biggest difference between textures, taste can have multiple factor differences that are unrelated to texture.
