A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
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 [email protected] or [email protected].
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 [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Doesn't lemmy allow the communities to only allow text as posts? Could be a future feature
I feel like this is an underrated idea. Resonates with the whole thing of making a subset of the internet simpler and just like documents, as with the simpler protocols like Gemini etc.
That would still allow links to be posted. Better than allowing image posts, but not a complete solution.
It prevents concerns about hosting CSAM posted by someone else. A categorical improvement I’d say. But yes, nothing’s perfect.
Still better than nothing. Easier for mods of text-only communities to only have text-only posts submitted.
If we then add a few conditions: "no links in the root message" and "OP may not be the first to comment within some unspecified amount of time," that could make it even easier to limit CSAM.
You're right. I thought of another idea: use karma to decide who can post links, images and/or videos. 50 general karma for links, 100 for pictures, you get the idea.
Not an effective solution for a federated service. Just spin up a new instance and give yourself karma. Shoot, there is no centralized service for validating accounts, so just set up 50 alts across 50 instances.
That's a terrible idea and so easily gamed.
