Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.


Rule: You must post before you leave.



Other rules

Behavior rules:

Posting rules:

NSFW: NSFW content is permitted but it must be tagged and have content warnings. Anything that doesn't adhere to this will be removed. Content warnings should be added like: [penis], [explicit description of sex]. Non-sexualized breasts of any gender are not considered inappropriate and therefore do not need to be blurred/tagged.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact us on our matrix channel or email.

MODERATORS
 

Heads up, We are mostly moving this community over to Lemmy.world. If you're wondering where most of the funny went, go to [email protected]! If you're wondering why we did this, click here.

==please incorporate the word rule in your post titles==
Here are the things that get you banned:
-saying anything remotely iffy with a lemmygrad or hexbear account
-tankie behaviour
-nazi behaviour
-authoritarian behaviour
-genocide denial
-prejudice of any kind
-anything else that is clearly bad

Things that get your post/comment removed:
-AI generated content
-anything in the banlist
-posts that are so off topic that they don't fit on 196 at all
-moldy memes (old memes, crusty memes, irrelevant memes. The type of things you'd see on your aunt's Facebook page or Elon musk's Twitter account with a laughing emoji as the caption)
-corpoposting

Ban length varies, and is mostly based off of whether or not I think you will change your behavior. I have baned certain people for upwards of 2000 days.

---------EDIT:NSFW RULES---------
NSFW Content is now fully permitted BUT it must be tagged. Any NSFW content that has not been tagged and blurred will be removed. Content warnings should also be added to the title in brackets. Example: [penis] or: [explicit description of sex].
Non-sexualized breasts of any gender are not considered inappropriate and therefore do not need to be blurred/tagged. Yes, even female breasts.

IRL GORE IS NOT PERMITTED UNDER ANY CONDITION.

JAN 2025 UPDATE: One Hundred Ninety Six
Following our mishandling of the lemmy.world migration, a group of dissenting users founded onehundredninteysix, here on lemmy.blahaj.zone. We are not affiliated with this group. Please direct any complaints related to that community to their mod team and/or Ada.

If you have any issues, please reach us at [email protected]. PLEASE do not dm me, as I am not consistently available and tend to step away from the mantle for weeks to months at a time.

how tankies are still surprised that fascist apologia gets them banned in an antifascist community is beyond me

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago

Anti tankie propaganda is fascist apologia.

Why are they even allowed to federate here

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The main dev of lemmy is one of them, that's how.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 years ago (2 children)

this instance isn't associated with the devs

I mean, it says in the post, they're allowd to federate but are "on probation"

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago (5 children)

Probably because banning people based purely on political ideology is kind of facist 😝

Spez is so hot, I want to fuck him.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

Because of the Reddit migration, 196 is coming up in my Lemmy feed a lot, I have no idea what it is (because you haven't made a description).

This could be your chance to gain more community members if you update your description

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Well sort of the point of 196 is that you can post almost anything, the only rule is that you have to post each time before leaving. This rule isn't enforced for obvious reasons, unlike the ban against tankies.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

before leaving as in before switching to another community while browsing? or as in when you unsubscribe? and what if I never leave

Can you please ban me for 5 days so that I know what it looks like on this platform?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I'll ban you for one day because you didn't do anything against the rules

Hi, may I please repost this as a reply within this comment section but with slightly different formatting for the sake of readability?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 years ago

Yeah, the post is missing its newlines. If the post correctly used newlines, new paragraphs, and better markdown overall, it would probably look like:

The post, but correctly marked down.

please incorporate the word rule in your post titles


Here are the things that get you banned:

  • saying anything remotely iffy with a lemmygrad account
  • tankie behaviour
  • nazi behaviour
  • authoritarian behaviour
  • genocide denial
  • prejudice of any kind
  • anything else that is clearly bad

Things that get your post/comment removed:

  • anything in the banlist
  • posts that are so off topic/moldy that they don't fit on 196 at all (very rare, not usually enforced)

Ban length varies, and is mostly based off of whether or not I think you will change your behavior. I have baned certain people for upwards of 200 days.

Hi! I don't want to break any rules so I'd like to ask first, what are the rules on self promotion? I was thinking of making a post about a 20-30 minute queer fishing game I made for this year's pride (this one to be specific) and thought it could be nice to share here but don't want to break a rule to do so.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's allowed for now. If self promo becomes A problem, I'll hold another poll.

IM TRYING TO POST TO FOLLOW THE RULE BEFORE LEAVING BUT I KEEP GETTING AN ERROR THATI MUST SPECIFY WHAT COMMUNITY HELP PLEASE

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I was wondering when someone would start discriminating based on what instance you made your account on...

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 years ago (6 children)

You can use 196 on a lemmygrad account, but because it's by definition a tankie Lemmy site, you're basically on probation.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Can you define “tankie behavior” so this doesn’t get abused by a power-tripping mod later?

I've been seeing more posts featuring companies, like this one.

I think there should be some rule about advertisement. We probably shouldn't ban all mentions of companies, but some limits should be in place.
