      I get that it’s annoying, but we’re sad, and angry, and scared, and we don’t know where to go. Maybe someone will make us a community called “Now what?” where we can cry, shout, wallow a bit, and then make a plan for survival.

      Sure, but… is “too much discussion” really a problem that Lemmy has? This is kind of a threatening time for some of us, especially if we don’t have a lot of friends irl.

        “Too much off topic discussion or discussion in one topic that stifles other conversations”

        Better?

              What conversations, specifically

              Lol, okay, very specific. I’m also talking about this community, where this rule was made despite there being basically 1 post per hour.

                  Why? I’m Canadian, so I guess the NATO requirement that we increase military spending to 4% of our GDP ($41 billion dollars). It’s pretty contentious and fucked up. It’s not like I’m an American single-issue voter, sorry to burst your bubble.
