For posting all the anonymous reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

I don't get why the people on World didn't just stay on Reddit? I mean, they crealy just want Lemmy to be Reddit 2, and their ideals already line up with Reddit sooooo?

the people running world wanted reddit but they're in charge
some of the users migrating would have wanted to get in on the ground floor of reddit2
some of them wanted reddit but with different people in charge
some of them wanted reddit but foss

When forum posting is not liberating, the dream of the poster is to become a mod

They've actually managed to make .world worse than reddit, so I suppose they have that going for them lmao
