YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.
All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:
**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

I don't eat beef, it's destroying the environment.
To all the downvoters, just know that I'm comfortable each day of my life knowing that I'm not the problem.
For all the downvotes you are objectively correct. Meat consumption is one of the biggest voluntary climate impacts in a Western person's lifestyle.
And I say that as someone who loves eating meat, I wish I had it in me to transition away.
Thank you, I love steak, but I stopped eating it 3 years ago when I learned about all the statistics. I still eat other types of meat which are less impactful on the environment.
There is no ethical consumption. Eat what you want, just don't pretend you're better than someone else because you have some magical diet.
I am better than anyone who continues to eat beef. Don't tell me what to do. There is ethical consumption.
What if I slaughter the cow myself?
It makes no difference.
So what are we supposed to do with all of the living cows? Isn't the main problem with cattle farming the greenhouse gases that the cows release when they fart and poop? Can you explain what's unethical, if that's not the reason?
Make sure they cannot reproduce, no longer allow for new farms, ban cattle ranching.
Don't tell me what to do.
Oh yeah? Don't read this, sweetheart.
Don’t tell me what to do.

You are correct, red meats are the worst for the environment, which is why I only eat them on special occasions, just like flying, it isn't sustainable to overconsume, and it should be minimised to whichever level you are willing to do.
Don't tell me what to do.
I wasn't telling you what to do.
You was. "Just know" is a telling me to do
