An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men’s Club. https://dullmensclub.com/
[https://dullmensclub.com/] 1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts
should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important
rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many
uses of “discuss” rarely comply with this rule. 2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful
Content. 3. Avoid repetitive topics. 4. This is not a search engine or advice
forum.
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook
group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple
questions, identify objects or get advice. We accept very few questions, and
they must be over topics much more difficult than what is easily discoverable
with a search. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”. 5. Keep it dull. If it puts
us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross
stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing
things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere. 6.
Not hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or
excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or
dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity. 7. Proofread
before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some
examples: - starting a post with “So” - starting a post with pointless phrases,
like “I hope this is allowed” or “this is my first post” Only share good
quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original
image. 8. All polls must have an “Africa, by Toto” option. Why? Because we hear
the drums echoing tonight.
I found this community and thought it was kinda interesting.
"Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. "
I hadn’t seen it here, I was scrolling through several pages of new communities and it was pretty much the only new active community.
I was trying to find some new communities to create an index for everyone (!index@lemmy.world) - or rather a community designed to allow people to make suggestions and upvote/downvote the actual “curated” list without moderator involvement.
