Heathcliff

If you aren't familiar with this project here are the basics:

I remove Heathcliff from each day's Heathcliff comic. In most cases this preserves their absurdist, dada, anti-joke vibe because his presence is frequently irrelevant to the joke even though he is the titular character.

Every day except Sunday. On those days I add him to something he wasn't in.

This isn't Garfield Minus Garfield. Those edits become introspective instead of more or the same level of surreal. Those were done selectively versus this project being daily. The edits I do are to show that Heathcliff is often irrelevant to the joke/anti-joke absurdism that is modern Heathcliff. I will also be posting edits by others on the Heathcliff editor community that aren't on Lemmy.

Thank Christ! Does this mean you'll stop posting to /comics?

I wish you luck with your weird obsession.

The link at the top of the post works. Not sure why this comment one doesn't.

The comment link works on other platforms (e.g. mbin) on top of Lemmy

Oy, now I understand why I wasn't seeing your latest content!

Hmm, I haven't hyperventilated in a long time.

Not sure if your hyperventilating was caused by Heathcliff without Heathcliff. I recommend taking two HAM and checking in the morning.

A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.

Rules

The rules may be more established as time goes on, but it's important to have a foundation to work on.

1. Follow the rules of Lemmy.world - These rules are the same as Mastodon.world's rules, which can be found here.

2. Include a community title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.

3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible.

Formatting

Please include this following format in your post:

[link text](/c/community@instance.com)

This provides a link that should work across instances, but in some cases it won't

You should also include either:

!community@instance.com

or instance.com/c/community

FAQ:

Q: Why do I get a 404?

A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.

Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?

A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn't get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn't actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.
