I'm new to lemmy, came from reddit. What's the lemmy etiquette like? How different is it from reddiqutte? (lemmy.ml)

Fair, I just like to check these things so I don't offend anyone or do anything mean. Thanks. Have a great day!

I was making light of your question ... partly to have a bit of fun ... and partly to show that the community enjoys sharing these silly little bits of movie quotes that act like memes. The one I was using is from the movie "The Naked Gun" (the original film from 1988 with Leslie Nielson)

A lot of the meme communities enjoy old slapstick movie content as there is a lot of memeable content there ... films like 'The Naked Gun' series, Hot Shots, any of the Mel Brooks films and Monty Python.

Don't be afraid to test your boundaries, comment as you like but with an open mind and kind heart ... people will let you know if you've said or implied anything negative or positive. Don't be discouraged if you get no response either ... it's not a popularity contest. The longer you stay, the more you comment, the more you get to know people and the more they get to know you and eventually you become a regular part of the community.

Welcome to Lemmy and welcome to the fediverse.

Thanks, and I've seen Monty Python and the holy grail and flying circus! Very silly and memeable lol. Have a great day!
