A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I think a lot of the annoyance that comes from rules similar to your example is the fact it is a system bolted on to whatever is available in Reddit. And the UI/UX is almost always TERRIBLE.
If it was easier to make clean and functional post/comment flows this would be less of a burden.
Your points still stand. But I do think a large proportion of the friction from many rules comes from Reddits architecture. And frankly, the fact that they support apps. If it had stayed just the website, we would have probally seen more movement on improving these flows. But it’s deemed too complicated to support in two formats. Also, Reddit probally just does not give a shit.
I would hope Lemmy could be a place where it’s easy to deploy systems for proper labeling and tagging in niche communities that gain a lot from better taxonomies and other systems.
