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.

This is a good point. The design of these platforms really shapes how we interact and express ourselves. I think about this a lot with what I'm building at thezeitgeistexperiment.com where we're trying to use AI to understand public opinion from text, rather than just rely on engagement metrics. It’s an interesting challenge.
