Welcome to the flexitarian community on the Lemmy.ca Lemmy instance!

Flexitarianism is a diet similar to vegetarianism. Flexitarianism differs from veganism in that animal byproducts are allowed, and differs from both veganism and vegetarianism in that it allows for some minor flexibility in the consumption of meat products.

Reasons for following a flexitarian diet may differ from person to person. Perhaps one wants to transition from a typical diet to a vegetarian one, using flexitarianism as a means to make the transition with more ease. Perhaps one lives in an area where vegetarian or vegan substitutes are lacking, using flexitarianism to reduce meat consumption as options become available on the market. Perhaps one wants to live a vegan or vegetarian lifestyle, but uses flexitarianism as a means to combat food waste at public events.

Whatever reasoning it may be, anybody following a flexitarian diet or curious about flexitarianism is welcome to participate in this community barring a few rules:

All Lemmy.ca instance rules are to be abided by at all times
Be respectful to others engaging in the community. A flexitarian diet is a valid diet, and the differing reasons in following a flexitarian diet are to be embraced, not shamed.
Debate between different diet types, while welcome, should be kept in a respectful manner. Personal attacks and judgements, as well as general invalidation or self-aggrandizing, are not welcome here.

More rules are likely to be added as the community, and activity within it, grows.

Lemmy.ca

A Canadian-run community, geared towards Canadians, but all are welcome!

Welcome 🍁

Lemmy.ca is run by Canadians, hosted in Canada, and geared toward Canadians. However, it is not restricted to Canadians, or Canadian culture/topics/etc. All are welcome!

To learn more about what Lemmy is, or how the Fediverse works, you can visit our simple Getting Started Guide.

This site is run by the non-profit Fedecan and funded entirely by user donations. You can help support us by visiting our donations page.

Rules and Guidelines

1. No Bigotry

Including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia.

2. Be Civil

Argue in good faith, attack the argument; not the person, and promote a healthy debate. That includes implying violence, threats or wishes of violence and/or death.

3. No Porn

This instance is not made to host porn communities. You’re free to access porn communities on other instances through your account, but be mindful of Rule 4.

4. Use the NSFW tag

Use your common sense: if you wouldn’t want this image to show up on your work computer, tag it as such. In comments, use the :::spoiler ::: tag for NSFW images, and put a NSFW mention beside links. Do not use NSFW images as your avatar or banner.

5. No Ads / Spam

This instance is not there to act as your billboard. If you want to promote your personal work, at least make the effort to be a contributing member of this community. Your account purpose shouldn’t be to only advertise, make it natural.

6. Bot account

If you are the operator of a “bot” account, make sure to flag is as such in the account’s settings.

7. Right to privacy

Do NOT distribute the personal information of someone else without their consent (aka doxxing). Information that is public domain can be shared, provided it is in good faith.
ex: The official email of an elected official is fair, the private phone number or the real name of a non-public person is NOT.

8. Report abuse

The report function isn’t labelled the disagree button. You might not agree with someone, but that doesn’t mean what the person says is against the rules. Using it repeately in this fashion will lead to actions being taken against the reporter.

9. Impersonation

Don’t make an account with the intent to negatively deceive or defame someone on the fediverse.
ex: Parody of a famous person is okay, submitting outrageous content as appearing like another user, mod or admin isn’t.
