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.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

making off kilter comments on reddit for well over a decade... and i never even got a subreddit ban for them...
then around '21/'22 i started getting subreddit bans like crazy. weird. mods kept saying i was a sexist/racist trump supporter... but I am not.
then in '24 it was sitewide bans for mainsteam comments that were 'violent and racist'. one comment was about my cat killing rabbits in my local city subreddit. The second was 'racist' for saying how much I admired our asian majoy in my local city subreddit.
been on lemmy two years now. Had a great time mostly. But recently... now on lemmy every few days I get harassed by some weirdo going around on my old comments for days/weeks ago telling me how racist and sexist trump supporter i am. I assume bot/troll accounts. got a couple fo community bans too for these weirdos reporting me.
agree too that most of the harassment comes from crazy left-wing nutjobs who think nobody is left enough for them, who are 100% fascists, as long as it's left wing fascism.
