Community Guidelines

Be constructive. As a community this is place for discussion, things you liked, things you didn’t like, any everything in between. Low effort comments don’t add to the discussion.
Be civil. Disagreements happen. Don’t attack others. Take a moment and reconsider before you post an inflammatory comment in all caps.
No spam. Please don’t post spam, trolling or other low effort content. If you’re a human and you saw something interesting or had an interesting thought, you’re probably fine.
Memes are allowed. We’re a small community, feel free to post memes or similar content. Funny things are good. If it becomes a problem we can discuss changing the rules.

In addition like any community we follow the Lemmy.World content policy rules. In short, don’t attack people or groups.

Spoiler Guidelines

Be mindful when posting spoilers or spoiler content.
If you’re making a post put “(Spoilers)” at the start of your post.
If your post is an image mark it as NSFW.
If you’re making a comment use the Lemmy spoilers markdown.

When should something no longer be considered a spoiler? In general use your best judgement. If want something more specific,

For films, wait until it’s been released to streaming for at least a few weeks.
For TV shows, consider the whole season as a spoiler until the last episode of the season has aired, then wait a few weeks.
