Welcome to the nostalgia-filled piefed instance of yesteryear.

Open Registration with Application questionnaire.

If you have a question or comment you can post in !meta@retrofed.com or message @DosDude@retrofed.com or @Die4Ever@retrofed.com

In case of downtime and/or emergency, we will post updates on @DosDude@mastodon.social

Some rules we try to uphold:

  • Be civil. Bigotry is not welcome. This includes (but is not limited to): transphobia, queerphobia, racism, ageism and ableism. We do not promote hate.
  • Communities need to be Retro or Retro-adjacent.
  • Please don't upload pornographic content. (use an external image host for that)

Are there other 'hidden' rules for communities?

Going through the sidebar all the rules are perfectly reasonable. Just curious if some communities implement additional rules in addition to the Lemmy.ca rules, and how would I go about knowing about them?

Guys, don't tell him about the hidden rule. He already broke it twice in this post, it's hilarious.

One unspoken rule is that no, you can’t fish here

Many communities have additional rules.

If you go to the main page of the community, the additional rule(s)will be in the sidebar.

For example, if you go to !canada@lemmy.ca you'll see a single additional rule in the sidebar.
