The community has grown steadily and now has more than 1000 subscribers. My approach so far was very laid back and I did not remove posts or ban many people, unless some very clear cases of spam and trolling.
In recent times, more user reports have reached me, which I did not act upon. This is also due to a lack of rules.
My original intention was to have a space for discussion, also with non-vegans. I see that the community is mostly passive with posts being links to external sites with few comments, also to sites of the posters. I personally don't mind and the upvotes tend to be >80%, which is a sign that a large majority likes this kind of posts.
This is why I want to ask you:
- Would you like to see more regulation on this community?
- What rules should be applied?
- What would you specifically not like to see?
I'm also open to have more moderators than just me for this community and general ideas for improving this community.
Thank you for your input! ๐ฑ
So you mean integrating the ethical with the practical? "How to get shit done" rather than "I hope someone does something"? Less advertising, more wheatpaste-able propaganda? I agree! As a subversion tactic, eating a pre-packaged veggie burger is questionable at best.
