New Community Rule: "No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports." (lemmy.world)

Due to the large number of reports we've received about recent posts, we've added Rule 7 stating "No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports."

In general, we allow a post's fate to be determined by the amount of downvotes it receives. Sometimes, a post is so offensive to the community that removal seems appropriate. This new rule now allows such action to be taken.

We expect to fine-tune this approach as time goes on. Your patience is appreciated.

Thanks for sharing the other communities. I have used this forum a lot and there are some great helpers here. I really hope things don't get a bad turn. We really need these forums to help newbies. We've all been there. You could argue that the typical newbie question "where do i start?" Is "low effort" but simply reading all the answers about how others approched self hosting has given me so much benefit.
