Thee shouldst not useth plain language in thy comments.
I thought using proper grammar and syntax was a good thing?
Yond shouldst beest ‘I bethought using prop’r grammar and syntax wast a valorous thing?’
Don’t make low-effort posts on Ask Lemmy, a la what you’d see on Reddit
The only unwritten rule I know of is “be civil”. I’ve yet to see those typical reddit replies of: “You’re wrong about everything and should die you fucking bag of cunt hammers!” (Except from the guy that will respond to this post with that exact phrase)

Very much a written rule.
Yes, you’re right, but I think Lemmy culture adds an unwritten “don’t be an overly aggressive asshole” on top of it. (Unless that’s also explicitly written)
bag of cunt hammers literally lol …Mind if I steal that?
Don’t mention landlords, unless followed by “… deserve the guillotine.”
It’s not really a rule exactly but you don’t need to be on the most popular instance. Literally doesn’t matter what instance you’re on as long as you’re not on one of the right wing ones that ban everyone. It’s better for the community to have everyone be on lots of smaller instances because it decreases the centralization, which of course is the entire point.
