Ask Lemmy is a place to ask thought provoking questions. The mods have been lenient with some of the recent posts on the basis that they must provoke thought for some people, but after seeing two posts essentially saying “what do you think of my stick?”, I believe we can raise the bar a bit on what kind of thoughts we want to provoke here.
No more low effort posts please.
The stick post was the most upvoted post in the past 7 days.
That doesn’t make it good.
It doesn’t make it bad either.
Well, it was way more interesting than the usual stuff here. So much about “thought provoking”.
Doesn’t mean it fit in this community. Yeah it was probably fine to let one of those threads go by, but the second was too much.
I honestly didn’t think they fit and I checked the rules to see what was going on because I assumed this was a community similar to askreddit.
Why was it so much upvoted ?
What does it say about the average
let me use herLemmy user ?is there a disconnect between users and moderators ?
Perhaps it’s a critique on the quality of the rest of the posts.
More like a disconnect between the moderators and reality.
I believe no sexual thoughts went into that, as can be seen by the replies.
