A community for all things related to the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise.

Rules:

1. Relevancy: Posts must be related in some way to the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, including games, shows, movies, art, comics, books, merchandise, themed attractions, or fan works.
2. NSFW content: Posts and comments must not contain sexually explicit or overly gory content, even if marked NSFW. Posts which are properly tagged will just be removed, but posting without the proper tag will result in removal and a warning.
3. Attribution: Credit must be given in the title if your post uses content created by somebody other than yourself and the contents of the link do not make the author readily apparent. Failure to do so may result in a warning. You may be banned if you provably falsely claim to be the original creator of a piece of content.
4. AI: No posts of AI-generated artwork.
5. Spam: More than 4 posts in an hour or 8 posts in a day by a single user will be seen as spam and may be removed at a moderator’s discretion.
6. Reposting: Reposts will be removed.
7. Spoilers: Spoilers for official works which are under a month old (including games, movies, shows, and comics) must be marked accordingly via a ‘[SPOILER]’ tag and, if applicable, using spoiler markdown for text.
8. Prrrromotion? What for?: Keep self-promotion to a minimum. Do not post fan works as an excuse to link to your socials, and do not advertise fan merchandise.
9. Misc: Do not piss on the Moon.
10. ToS: All Lemmy.World terms of service apply. Please ensure you’ve read them at least once before posting or commenting.

If you’re a furry and want a more specific Sonic community centered around that identity, you should definitely check out !sonic@pawb.social. (It is not affiliated with this one in any way.)

This is not in any way a rule, but if you want to post a very large file to this community, consider using a third party like catbox.moe (disclaimer: not FOSS) instead of uploading directly to Lemmy to help keep the server load manageable.
