    Fall of Civilizations https://fallofcivilizationspodcast.com/

    Descriptions of what we know about the rise and fall of various past cultures, and what life was like for people living at the peak of those empires and during the collapse. I highly recommend the video versions available on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLR7yrLMHm11X6-M_usCj5H-gdstyWNLXQ

    I’m fond of https://thehistoryofengland.co.uk/ as a podcast. I listened to a whole lot of it with a single earbud in while my kids were in that stage.

    Joanna Lumley made a few nice ones (like “in the Land of the Northern Lights”)

    Or better fit in this community : the “rail away” series*. It’s just special train rides across the world with short explanations. Very dull, yet pleasurable.

    * It’s dutch, but I’ll bet there are english/international variations too

    (the dullest EVER was a broadcast by a regional broadcaster in the early morning hours titled “gaan we links of gaan we rechts” {do we go left or do we go right?} which was just a camera in a car that drove around. No voice-over, No music. Just a camera in a car that drove around.)

    All of The World At War is available on Archive.org. Well worth it.

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of “discuss” rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.

Some other communities to consider before posting:

  • what is this thing?
  • No Stupid Questions
  • Ask Lemmy
  • Self Hosted
  • Mildly Interesting

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with “So” - starting a post with pointless phrases, like “I hope this is allowed” or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.
