When people turn a popular post into an Oscars Acceptance Speech

ETA: wow thanks for the upvotes!

ETA2: omg my first gold award?? I couldn't have made it without my mom and Jesus through whom all things are possible

This may be an unpopular option since I've already seen it across lemmy, but the ____porn communities. I'd like to browse pictures of nice landscapes or exotic cars without worry about someone around me noticing "PORN" on my screen.

At this point it seems very old internet, something that made sense when those communities were established, but now is unnecessary gratuitous and not socially acceptable.

Moderators who coddle bigots.

Bigots.

Creative writing presented as truth

"Thanks for the gold kind stranger"

The “hivemind” ignoring the correct information or even worse, encouraging the wrong information.

Does anyone else remember the whole Boston Bomber fiasco (i.e. We did it, Reddit)?

Can we stop talking about Reddit? Let it go.

Karma-removed. It's already started with the stupid "upote my can of beans" posts... Dude nobody cares about your internet points, either activity participate or fuck off to Instagram.

Please don't let /c/asklemmy become like /r/askreddit, which had half of the front-page posts being the same sex related questions every month.

"Women of reddit, what non sexual thing that guys so makes you horny?"

"What is the sexiest thing you regret doing?"

"How many cocks have you sucked while your cat judges you while waiting for you to feed it?"

It was bullshit.

/u/spez

r/the_donald or anything like it. Kindly fuck off with all of that shit.

I absolutely hate the love for revenge violence. Stuff like celebration people running over protestors in their cars because they were forced to stop on the road. Or bleeding out after someone got shot when they robbed a store.

This includes that fact that you can basically guarantee every thread contains at least one comment claiming "play stupid games, win stupid prizes"

My cat didn't get any love over on insert community name here. I hope you guys updoot me more than they did.

People who don’t know/acknowledge the difference between “free speech” and “hate speech”

Ads.

Fuck ads.

"Sir, you have just won the internet" "Thanks for the gold kind stranger" "I too choose this guy's [placeholder]" And the other corny overused reddit lines

Karma. I feel like that will push Lemmy in a way that isn't healthy.

Sponsored posts, banner ads, algorithms, and other advertising-industry fuckery.

A reply that's just "r/(some subreddit name)."

A robot trying to sell stolen fan art printed onto t-shirts.

People childishly self-censoring non-sweary words. "Sex" isn't a bad word, but writing "s*x" suggests you probably shouldn't be allowed on social media at your stage of development.

Toddlerisms like danger noodle (snakes) or velvet hippos (pitbulls I think)
