I support it because I want more people to talk about shows with
Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

The more we can do to move people to the fediverse, thereby reducing corporate control, the better.
In reality we should.
To many in lemmy are to happy to stay in their special little corner.
Its just confusing to me because lemmy is made to give anyone their preferred corner.
Asking for low barrier to the largest instances (entry points for new users) seems like a different ask than for professional lemmings to give up their platform.
Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.
Diversity is paramount for social media, otherwise it becomes an echo chamber or worse.
Say what you will about the average redditor, but remember at a certain point they're just the average person.
I mean, love me some Linux nerds and Germans as much as the rest of you but lemmy needs more.
In my opinion, everyone who is like "we only want more people who understand the fediverse" are stupid.
How are people supposed to learn and understand the fediverse if they don't try it?
The more people we get off of corporate bullshit, the better.
