2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected]. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

So if I were you, I would do two seperate threads

Jokey thread (+ positive)
room for improvement/complaints/sad or angry stuff (- negative)

N'er may the two meet :)

I respectfully disagree.

Joking about our own shortcomings/not taking ourselves too seriously is, to me, a valid form of humour and a nice way of expressing ourselves.

I am sorry that my post was not to everyone’s taste.

You should at least keep that at the very beginning (like the first thing people see so they notice and take it into account)

Thanks for your answer.

In my thinking I had done that by stating non-serious answers also welcome in the first part of the post. Should that have been phrased differently?

You should put it at the very top/start of the post. Like people should immediately see on the first line your disclaimer
