Oh Nice, let’s make this instagram but for strangers. I love the community here, but jeez I want to se funny pics. Not someone cat or phone background with a sassy quote.
I at least beg you all to file it as a selfie, so we can filter it out.
I think you're taking it a tad bit the wrong way.
I haven't seen you around before, so you might be unaware of the close-knit group that has joined the funsub discord and has regular conversations in the chat forums. I'm merely bringing that out into the site itself. (Also, filing random posts as selfies will be taken down).
Wait, you say filter it *out*? Go to r/memes if you want memes then broham
I’ve been here for at least 5 years, had a star for many of them. But funsubstance lost it’s glory in my eyes.
Trust me, I loved the community here. It’s different than other blogger sight, that’s why Im still here occationally. But the selfies, the treating this place like Instagram, that’s one of the reasons why I left.
I think the discord is great, keep it there and in the chats. Keep it in the comment section, it’s so nice to read. But I’m just sharing my opinion here, and I’m not down with this idea. Sorry if me sharing my opinion offends you.
Things can’t always be the same. Especially on the internet, it changes all the time. This is just the way it is now and I’m trying to make the most of it.
(Or would you rather reposts from other sites?)
I understand what @norwegiangirl is saying. I have also been here for a long time, and I come to see fun content which has decreased a bit over time unfortunately. And I also appreciate the community, but I personally don't like seeing selfies and "inside" jokes from the users that know each other and such in the posts. I think that the chat and comment sections are good for that.
Rosalinas: that’s the problem though, isnt it? It’s not fun when the site is filled with inside jokes for a couple of the outspoken members here. It’s not for all.
I actually understood both those things (not sure if that is good or not lol). And I didn't mean things that you pick up on from being here. I meant that people sometimes know each other outside of Funsubstance and will post stuff that is clearly about a joke or time that the rest of people don't understand or care about.
Also, I wouldn't exactly consider this a social media/networking site. I guess it can sort of be sometimes, but I think it's main purpose is to view fun/funny content - not to network and share our personal lives all the time. People can do that on FB or Instagram or whatever.
P.S. Not trying to completely shut you down @creativedragonbaby. I think some things could be fun - like sharing art or stuff we've created while stuck at home. Just don't want to see the site turn from fun content to "here's everything I've done today" and "here are selfies - give me attention" etc.
I've been doing my part of just downvoting the obvious bot posts and moving on. Some of them are good but the posts obviously from other sites and the ones from several months ago are just annoying.
I only stay because the memes are still better and I like the frequent posters. I'm a daily but silent user here and still feel like I know a lot of y'all very well.
Yes, this is how I feel as well. Downvote and move on.

Users like us are the gatekeepers in All, filtering content for the casual users in Popular. The ridiculous bot posts can annoy me sometimes, but downvoting them and moving on is enough.
,
I'd like to see more users post great content, but that means we'd all have to be on other sites, burning our time trying to find content, which seems like a big ask.
,
I still think the best real solution is to have someone behind the scenes removing bot posts that are pornographic, grossly outdated, or directly referencing other sites or their users. The people living in All ARE funsub the community and those particular bot posts feel like the only ones that work against that feeling of community, IMO.
