Not the OP, but I've got the following bots blocked and it massively improved my Lemmy experience.

Hey dude - I hate removing posts because I appreciate it whenever someone contributes, but I don't think this would be considered "offbeat". This sounds like something more suited for the science-based communities.
I gave up on online dating last year and I won't be back. If that means I'll end up dying alone, I'm honestly more comfortable with that idea than suffering though anymore of the bullshit that's Tinder/Bumble/Hinge/etc. It's become such a miserable experience for both sides (men and women).
As someone who had used online dating on and off for 10+ years, I can tell you one of the big problems - money and greed. I know it's always easy to just "blame capitalism", but I've seen first-hand the paradigm shift from an actual useful service (i.e. a way to meet people that you would otherwise not meet) to the blatant greed it's become. The dating apps are so obviously profiteering off people's loneliness it's fucking disgusting. Back before Match bought everyone up, these services used to actually be okay for what they were.
Thank you for that! I've added that to the sidebar regardless of how this vote moves forwards. It's actually just a good rule to have. I've gone with "no older than 2 months" to give a little wiggle room and I'll see how that goes. I can always make it tighter down the line.
No worries mate! It's something that's been on my mind for a while and you finally lit a fire under my ass to do something about it 😂
Now if only I can take better care of some of my other communities 😬
A post like this is really making me wonder about the direction of this community. Not in a bad way. This is great content. I've been wondering for a while if I should expand the idea from "Offbeat News" to just general "Offbeat" things (news and other items). I need to formulate a mod post now lol.
In my opinion, that's way better dude.
100% agree. I really enjoy the app and Kuro has done amazing work, but this logo misses the mark tbh. I'm definitely no graphics designer (just someone who knows enough to make shitty memes), but the alignment is all over the place with this logo.
Weird. I'm not getting hit by one. Maybe my ad-block is catching it.
Try this one (same story, different site):

You're more than welcome to post on shitty food porn. There's not a lot of activity and the votes will let you know if it's the right place (I don't remove posts unless they're breaking rules). It kind of has two interpretations - pictures of shitty food (self explanatory) or food porn that's shitty (ie bad lighting, bad presentation, etc).
Or let me know if you start an "average food porn" community and I'm more than happy to link it in the sidebar of SFP.
