The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Bra-vo! Bra-vo!
B R A V O !
I don't know what you're cheering me for, but thank you.
Also your vertical text still renders horizontal for me, because it's interpreted as markdown. I guess when I reply it shows the raw text because now I see it vertical.
Is this real or the onion?
Platform traffic immediately plunged 99%. Major advertisers pulled campaigns within hours. "Our entire strategy relies on reaching users who react without thinking," said Bradley Morris, head of digital at QuickThoughts Media. "This demographic represents 90% of our conversion rate. Who's going to impulse-buy our clients' products if people start thinking things through?"
Sounds about right to me.
Who has time for every single paper? I read enough for one life...
Why even read one paper?
