The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)

All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:
**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.

What will be the "social" response on the 1st of july? People don't really change their behavior in significant ways until the heat of a situation is very real (in this case, when the third party apps actually close) even if they are certain that something adverse will happen. Will we see a bump of anger once they physically tap on their app by sheer habit and it just doesn't load reddit?
I want to strike. Anybody want to strike with me?
You can go march in solidarity with anyone who might be striking in your region! You don't have to be an employee to join the picket line. I went and picketed with some of my fellow nurses in Massachusetts a couple years ago even though I wasn't personally on strike.

Someone should work on a LemmyOverflow UI for Lemmy
To be fair, did anyone ever actually like Stack?
I don't like it, but I begrudgingly accept that it is kind of useful. There are a lot of people there who are unnecessarily rude af, especially to newbies.

It can be a great resource if you put time into writing really good questions. I've gotten dozens of fantastic answers over the years, and thousands of times I've found the question I wanted to ask already answered.
When someone complains about StackOverflow, I always ask to see their question. What I observe is:
- The vast majority of the time, they just didn't provide nearly enough information to answer the question.
- A lot of the time people got upset because of perceived rudeness, even though they got an answer to their question. StackOverflow tends to be direct / blunt, which isn't necessarily rude, though it's definitely not friendly
- People got upset that a question was marked as a duplicate, when it clearly was a duplicate to me, they just didn't understand how the duplicate applied to their case
However, 10% of the time, the answer really was wrong.
