I heard there's people who put their nudes on those and drop them randomly in parking lots. Probably worth a look.

Literally says No Spamming in the sidebar. So glad there is no limit to how many instances we can block on kbin.

What?

[–] borari@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah I have no idea lol. Fwiw, I think the community (both this one particularly and Lemmy as a whole) is small enough that there’s no point in banning memes at this time. If the entire post history in this community just becomes memes though that would change pretty quickly.

I’m really trying to figure out how a single post constitutes spamming though.

[–] chalkman@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago

Yeah I can certainly understand that. There were a lot of subreddits that initially allowed memes but once it grew enough they limited or banned them to keep things on topic. Personally I try to avoid posting too many memes on non meme communities. Like I've posted a couple of French memes over on the Quebec sub but that was mainly because there are so few francophone communities. Honestly they are so nice over there, if you ever feel like practicing your French you should join in a conversation or two. In my experience people in Quebec are usually super friendly and understanding if your French isn't great because they have to speak English much more often than English speakers need to speak French, so they appreciate the effort.

Unless this was posted 100 times, there should be a rule for no memes imo.
