In the amount of time you spent to write that comment you could have blocked this community 10 times over lol.
Not every space should be catered to a specific person.
I’m a relative Lemmy newbie and have a newbie question, hope you don’t mind. I access Lemmy primarily through the Sync app on Android. This community is https://lemmy.world/c/microblogmemes, yes? I checked the “about community” information about it and didn’t see any mention of childfree. Is that more of an emergent aspect of the community?
I’m just an old fart trying to stay relevant and up-to-date as I can. Thank you in advance for your answer.
Communities usually have guidelines people follow but it’s up to the mods to enforce them. If they don’t think a certain meme is bad or worth removing then they’ll just let it exist even if it’s not specified in the community. With that in mind, the other guy could have just ignored the community or the user instead of complaining.
So by that rationale you basically shouldn’t comment on a meme you think doesn’t really work or you have an opinion on? If that’s the case so be it, but it seems mildly oppressive and totally boring.
Honestly wasn’t aware I was posting on a childfree community - I access Lemmy through Boost, so just interact with whatever comes up in my feed. It does explain the heat I’m getting though 😂

Or even just moved past this one post…

It’s just this one post.
A lot of people are commenting on this post, but it’s not a trend or anything

Yes that’s exactly what I meant by my original response to the other guy. You’ve captured my intent completely, bravo.

There is zero indication anywhere this is a childfree community aside from the bitching in this thread.
It’s rather poorly named for a dedicated childfree community.
Yeah. After a single post defending the child-free lifestyle, the community should change its name to reflect it… /s
So close to seeing the point.
