It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
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 ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this.
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
what could the .ml mean?
it is a mystery
It's just the domain code for Mali.
i know, but the domain was chosen for a reason.
I thought Mali took all their domains back tho?
They did, but they only nuked suspected spam sites, since the .ml domain was packed with those. Technically they could still revoke lemmy.ml at any time for any reason but if they didn't do it in the initial wave I'm not sure why they would now.
anticommunism ☹
It is for the us military
Non "commies" dont spend all day thinking of either lenin nor marx and are unlikely to make that connection.
Lemmy.ml advertised it's self as a foss/dev community during the reddit exodus last year which is why i signed up for it.
god, i wish, instead i think about ice cream, tea, and guitar tones all day.
seems it's still in line with foss principles though, though i've been very vocal about my disdain for open source nerds for not knowing how to make a program people can figure out without having used anything else first.
Foss devs document literally anything challenge yadda yadda.
anything to avoid learning how to make a good UI i guess.
