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/

I'm playing whack a mole constantly, blocking all these anime subs!

Right (appreciate the sparky comment), but there seem to be anime subs for every little anime niche there could possibly be. If it was all limited to a few anime subs this would never have been an issue. Block one or two communities, and you're done.

Instead, you have to play wackamole and block communities every couple of weeks that get created for some new niche that apparently is t filled.

On the other hand, imagine wanting to block Linux communities, it feels like every other day there's a new one

I don't mind the linux communities as much, but there are a lot of them too.

Are you actually checking the creation dates on the communities?

Or are you just mad that there are a lot of them, and that people actually post to them, even months after they get created, and so you end up seeing a new one now and then.

Because as one of the biggest anime content posters, "every couple weeks" is just not the case. There's daily content but it's from a definite group of subs that you absolutely can block.

Here, I even have a list: https://ani.social/post/284178

Because they are the communities main posters.

If someone would pretend that I spam the All feed with new football communities every few weeks when it's not the case, I would reply too

I got the impression it's just a few people and the one I replied to was very hostile. They thought it was their right to post as much borderline loli as possible.
