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.

I mean, your average Lemmy user has skin the thickness of a cobweb, and a developmentally-stunted sense of humour from growing up watching bland American sitcoms
Unless the comments are coming with a laugh-track this can only go horribly wrong
(Insert /s here due to poor reading comprehension on one side of the Atlantic)
I mean, you're not wrong.
I guess I got carried away. I was thinking if there was a dedicated community where trolling is allowed, they'd understand that's like the 'safe' zone, for people to be dicks to eachother without worrying about reports and bans.
But you're right.
Man. That really sucks about lemmy and social media in general. It's so fucking lame now omg
Can't stand that shit lighten up fuck
Stick to UK based communities, every comment is read as sarcasm by default, it makes life so much easier 😂
That's hilarious 😂 I didn't think of that it makes sense though lol good idea for sure
I love the idea. Feddit UK would be a good place for this, could see that taking off
Shit, thank you ! ❤️🎀 We'll fuck it, imma go join over there and create it !
Don't blame me if it doesn't work, you talentless cunt
If I need an /s here you can pull one out of your arse
🤣 I don't even know the fuck this /s bullshit even is.
Is this a new part of y'all's 'European' complicated ass imperial system bullshit?
I know yall love measuring literally fucking everything in your precious centimeters and fucking Celsius and shit.
But I'm in A.M.E.R.I.C.A ok ? Where we use the actual correct metric system that doesn't require A goddamn quantum physics degree to figure out.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You're funny lol I love this so much. Anyway I signed up and made the banner I'm just waiting for pending approval I guess. I'm excited!
