i can’t stand megathreads – no one reads these! no one wants their posts banished there!
When people turn a popular post into an Oscars Acceptance Speech
ETA: wow thanks for the upvotes!
ETA2: omg my first gold award?? I couldn’t have made it without my mom and Jesus through whom all things are possible
This.
ETA: thanks for one upvote!😃
ETA2: thanks for two upvotes!😀😀
ETA3: woah?! 3?!?!?! thanks for three upvotes!😁😁😁
ETA4: this is more upvotes than I have money in my bank account! thanks for four upvotes!💵💵💵

ETA6: I’ve never had more than SIX!!! thanks for six upvotes! 😱😱😱😱😱

ETA9: Unbelievable. -400 upvotes now. I lost my house, my car, and my job because of this! 😔😔😣😖😖😖😭😭

I also hate “happy cake day”, and “this”. Especially “this”. It’s a worthless comment that adds nothing more to the discussion than a simple upvote.
This
😂 this really annoys me on Quora. I never understood why one feels the necessity to do so.
This may be an unpopular option since I’ve already seen it across lemmy, but the ____porn communities. I’d like to browse pictures of nice landscapes or exotic cars without worry about someone around me noticing “PORN” on my screen.
At this point it seems very old internet, something that made sense when those communities were established, but now is unnecessary gratuitous and not socially acceptable.
Damn, I had forgotten how obnoxious that was on Reddit. Blocked all of those years ago because it was just unnecessary and a gross way to qualify otherwise unremarkable photos.
I saw a post about a community created here called “pixel passport” which I thought was a hell of a lot better that “earth porn.”
EarthPixels. CarPixels. PornPixels. HistoryPixels. This could work.
Those are great names! I would subscribe to more communities with names like that.
I really like that name. Way better than Earthporn. Thank you for sharing, I subscribed!

“Thanks for the gold kind stranger”
You forgot to add the "Edit: " part because they always have to come back and edit every 2 minutes.
Edit: “Whoa my first gold! Thanks!”
Edit2: “Wow this is silly, thanks everyone!”
Edit3: “While you’re here, let me tell you my life story.”
EditAdNauseum: High pitched ear ringing
Moderators who coddle bigots.
Bigots.
This is my #1 also. So many people “just asking questions”
I also hate the circlejerk of people going “I cannot possibly comprehend being gay/trans/disabled/whatever but I let them do what they want!” They’re not aliens, you can listen to them explain what they are going through and have empathy. It’s not very complicated.
Creative writing presented as truth
I absolutely hate the love for revenge violence. Stuff like celebration people running over protestors in their cars because they were forced to stop on the road. Or bleeding out after someone got shot when they robbed a store.
This includes that fact that you can basically guarantee every thread contains at least one comment claiming “play stupid games, win stupid prizes”
I haaate “equal rights means equal lefts.”
These dudes fantasize about a woman picking a fight with them so they can beat the shit out of one and have it be socially acceptable.
Please don’t let /c/asklemmy become like /r/askreddit, which had half of the front-page posts being the same sex related questions every month.
“Women of reddit, what non sexual thing that guys so makes you horny?”
“What is the sexiest thing you regret doing?”
“How many cocks have you sucked while your cat judges you while waiting for you to feed it?”
It was bullshit.
Can we stop talking about Reddit? Let it go.
Yes, Lettit!
Hey people grieve at different speeds. Some people got to acceptance on the same day, others are still in denial.
…there is nothing to grieve…it is a website…
I was a daily reddit user since 2008. I don’t know anything else. The withdrawal symptoms were absolutely brutal until I figured out how Lemmy works.
Leaving reddit was harder than quitting nicotine. Let me grieve.
You are allowed to grieve whatever you feel you lost, even a website.
This
(I’m so sorry. I couldn’t resist)
You maybe should have tried harder to resist.
When someone would ask a good question that you also wanna know the answer to, but then all the “answers” were just jokes bc everyone wanna get upvotes. I dont really mind jokes but those times it was a bit sad, then sometimes no one would answer for real bc i guess they see 10 replies and assume surely one of them is real already.
Also repost bots.
And apple vs samsung feuds.
And sometimes looked like whenever some people try to organize action or protests, comments just spamming that “protests do nothing” or “voting does nothing,” or “what is this gonna do,” not suggesting any other solution either, almost like trying to encourage apathy? Or discourage action. Sometimes i wondered if those were bots.
Also the r/wooosh when someone didn’t understand a joke. .-.
r/the_donald or anything like it. Kindly fuck off with all of that shit.
Ads.
Fuck ads.

People who don’t know/acknowledge the difference between “free speech” and “hate speech”
unfortunately lemmy already has those people, but luckily enough they seem to organize in tidy communities that are easy to defederate
The “hivemind” ignoring the correct information or even worse, encouraging the wrong information.
Does anyone else remember the whole Boston Bomber fiasco (i.e. We did it, Reddit)?
Karma-whoring. It’s already started with the stupid “upote my can of beans” posts… Dude nobody cares about your internet points, either activity participate or fuck off to Instagram.
