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.
