Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I think there's a difference between "these are a huge waste of time, and always has been. Reddit slop!"
And
"Man, these comics aren't for me. The punchline never lands, or the art style is a bit strange and takes me out of it", etc.
The first kind of negativity contributes very little to any sort of discussion other than to be inflammatory. The second one actually invites the discussion you mention in the comment I'm replying to.
'least.. that's how I see it.
Yet here we are, having a discussion about it. Eventually there will be something low effort, and it will be called low effort, that's not inflammatory. Negativity is not abuse.
