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.
Does this include Youtube videos? Or at least Youtube videos without a clear description and summary?
Those constant ad money farming posts really lower the quality of this sub.
If the quality of the video is good, I like to see it here.
At minimum there should be a good description of what the video is about, with no clickbait.
But how would you know before watching?
“Based on the upvotes and comments” Oh then others doing the work to watch it and rate it on lemmy for you.
Imo, when a link to a video or forum or whatever is posted, then at least a summery or a discussion should be included.
