Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!

How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.

If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.

Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)

If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].

Rules:

1. NO POLITICS

Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.

2. Be civil.

Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.

3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...

Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.

5. No trolling.

This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.

Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

Shitpost trends get old fast and the joke isn't funny anymore as people try to hop on the band wagon for easy upvotes (lemmy.world)

The most recent being the jeans trend. It was funny, I get why everyone enjoys a good shitpost. Some of the shitpost are top quality and fun for all to enjoy. But after a couple of days the shitposts just turn to shit posts and its just upvote farming low quality content and kills the joke.

Ain't nothing wrong with let it go. It's a good song. Just played to death is all.

Yeah, it is a good song, and I get why people love the movie, but its not one of my personal most favorite things ever.

Which is why its good I didn't have it ruined by the meme- I can still go watch the movie and enjoy it with people who really are that into it and have a good time.

I love a good fanwatch with super nerds, (recently watched Revolutionary Girl Utena with my sibling who is a huge fan, and am trying to get through a reading of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms because of a friend who is a big fan, but that's gonna take some time) and I feel bad for Frozen fans, because one of their favorite things has a bit of a stigma attached. I really like My Little Pony and considering the reputation of G4, I get it.
