![[low stakes post] am i missing something or is this comm enforcing rules againstā¦ acronyms?](https://lemmy.cafe/pictrs/image/3ae3a4b4-fa8c-42e6-9190-75ecfa39329e.webp){kind=link}
The communityās sidebar doesnāt list a single rule so I donāt know how they expect to get users to fall in line if itās completely unspoken.
Anyway this is a rare case of a very tiny community where no one is getting hurt so itās not a huge deal. But if you plan on discussing news using any kind of acronym I guess donāt go there lmao.
Thoughts welcome! Am I missing something?
I mean, if in the context those posts were low-effort and didnāt contribute to the thread in any meaningful way, I could understand. Like sharing nothing but a reaction gif in a discussion heavy community could be seen as ālow effortā.
But common acronyms? Yeah, thatās definitely a strange thing.
Also, isnāt GIF itself an acronym? something-or-other Image Format?
It is! Jraphics Interchange Format.
I see what you did there.
Also, youāre pronouncing it wrong!
The Lemmy one is made out of jeans, so it applies.
No, youāre holding it wrong!
tbh i didnāt mean to leave in the reaction gif modlog entry that was a mistake on my end
Oh, I just mentioned it as a point of interest when discussing banning āacronymsā. Wasnāt meant to call you, the OP, out or anything. Just found it funny that mods would ban for acronyms, yet in the messages, use an acronym.
