Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

I’m not a fan of bots reposting stuff from reddit onto lemmy. Lemmy for me was supposed to be a complete replacement of reddit, not just a proxy.

Meh, we need content. Until we get more people here posting OC, and as long as people comment, which is where the interesting parts have always been in my opinion, I'm okay with it.

Well the comments aren't reposts at least. I get way more insight and engagement in here than I ever did on reddit

Reddit isn't original content its just an aggregator so it should be fine to post interesting reddit posts to lemmy. But having a bot do it is just copying the trash from reddit over to here with no filter.
