Just really showing off the level of articulation from the comms on this lemmy community and maybe even their intelligence.

I made a post about experimenting with compressed air and showing that it results in a mist coming out which would be an experiment without a hypothesis and related to science.

The post would reasonably be able to stay up given then only rule is be kind, but there’s now unsaid rules the mods will make up.

      Pointing out random ass pulls from mods and that you wouldn’t expect because the rules and description should allow for my original post.

      But this community loves moderators apparently or dog piles on retaliation. It’s weird some lemmy users will assume your in the wrong for simple talking about an issue or tell a story were someone else was being an asshole

    An experiment without a hypothesis is not science, it’s just fucking around.

      Actually it is science on account that there’s a natural phenomenon observed and then hypothesis get developed to explain the observation later on experiments get articulated to test those hypothesis.

      Turns out it’s a circle

    The comm could definitely use clearer rules, but a glance makes it pretty clear that it’s used for science news articles, not citizen science experiments.

    And as another commentor said, insulting mods is a great way to get banned.

    Maybe with your clear edge in intelligence, you might find one of the handful of communities actually meant for complaining about moderators, like powertrippingbastards.

      So seeing science news article means this comms is only for science articles even though the description has civil discussion in it?

      If I’m bored enough I’ll post to those comms

    And so it isn’t. What’s your point? There’s value in this kind of work, but just because it’s valuable, doesn’t mean we can just ignore the organization system we’ve set up here.

      Ah yes, because unelected leaders should have the right to censor parts of the internet for no reason /s

        You want to visit someone else’s house, you play by their rules. You want to set your own rules, get your own place.

      It’s not gonna fail. Do you actually expect the mods to articulate why I’m wrong and make me look stupid?

        Don’t talk to me. I’m not on your side. I’m only here to watch the train wreck when your tantrum gets nuked.

          There’s sides? You litterally started a tantrum before me. Plus all that’s gonna happen is the post gets deleted randomly

            Ah, but the “REEEEEEEEEEE!” beforehand is the sweetest entertainment nectar, and you, sir, are Reee’ing very beautifully indeed.

            Pray, continue.

              🤣 the reeee. I haven’t heard that meme in years, but I’m glad that you see my post that way and that you realize it’s okay to interact with me
