I assumed that this was standard behaviour/etiquette, though I’m realizing maybe it’s actually not so common, and I want to know if I’m the weird one
If you don’t- why not?

I do, but just because I see it, I don’t make a concerted effort to.
Yes, because I like to know that my post will be a good fit for the community that I’m posting it in.
No, now are we going to discuss Laezel hentai or what?
Only to check if it’s the onion or not, if my brain tells me, “that can’t be true”.
I usually intend to…
But I also usually intend to wake up a half hour early to do yoga before getting ready for work which has happened… Well… I really considered it one morning.
🤓 Actually it’s better to do yoga/stretching when you get home or after you finish exercising.
Absolutely not
Yeah, I check that it’s not .ml first.
If I’m making a post I make sure it’s relevant to the community I’m posting to, but just commenting on posts that show up in my feed I dont bother most of the time. Most message board rules boil down to “stay roughly on topic and dont be a dick to the other people here” anyway; you probably dont need to know most message board rules if youre adhering to that.
No, I’m lazy and only really care about the topic.
No. This site is built entirely around shitposting. It simply isnt that important, and I dont care.
Generally yes. It provides context for the posts, which is important, and while not as prominent as the post title and image in the main feed, it’s still listed right above those on the app I use.
This poll needs a “depends” option.
I don’t, but if something in the comments seem off (or the title of the post does) then I do. So it’s about 50/50. I also usually browse All though.
That’s why I think exclusionary communities should have their own instance - makes it easier to control postings and such. Especially since seeing the rules isn’t always intuitive in GUIs such as Voyager.
Of course I do. It’s just basic nettiquette.
Of course I do. Mostly because I avoid communities that I know will be toxic as hell and full of chuds
This seems to be the opposite experience for many who have expressed that they don’t check—they feel entitled to be present and post in every space regardless of any context
Yes. I also check the instance just in case.
