tl;dr - A more complete set of rules has been posted to the wiki and a link included in the sidebar.
Hi everybody! Despite my tendency to write too much, this will be a quick post, I promise. ๐ค
I had been slowly working in the background on writing up a more verbose and complete version of rules for the community on the wiki. After the most recent discussion about an edge case in the rules in which the community gave some great feedback, I thought it worthwhile to make this page go live and call it out in the sidebar.
The most notable parts of the full rules that are not present in the shortened version present in the sidebar would be:
- Some clarifications on relevant content
- A longer discussion of NSFW content and some edge cases
- Rules for posts linking to legally available full episodes
- Rules/guidelines for [Clip] posts
- Rules pertaining to self-promotion
That's it! If you have any questions, feel free to ask here or reach out to me separately. Alternatively, if you want to go over my head, you can ask @[email protected] directly since they can nuke my mod-dom from orbit should they so choose.
Finally, thanks to @[email protected] for the recent discussion and for motivating me to finish up this rules page.
Also, this is neither here nor there, but I have been trying out piefed lately and it's pretty cool. Thanks to the devs over there, the anime community should be a lot more compatible with piefed going forward thanks to squashing a couple bugs I found from our use cases. Specifically, piefed users should now enjoy:
What makes Piefed different?
As a general user, I like the topic system they have set up over there. It lets you just follow a couple topics and automatically subscribes you to a bunch of relevant communities (curated by the admins) for that topic across the fediverse. It was so much easier than trying to seek out a bunch of communities using some kind of third-party lemmy community search tool (like Lemmy Explorer).
I haven't tried their moderation tools yet (might appoint my piefed account as a mod to see what it's like). But, for just general browsing, I have liked it a lot.
