A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world
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 !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
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 info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Not sure about the new sub if the existing users have migrated to the new sub thing.
'front page' feeds would need to change as well with this because a lot of the time people are upcoting stuff they agree with or find funny without looking at the sub it's been posted on.
This means a lot of subs could be deposed for generic meme subs just because they popular.
Yeah that is a good point. I think it would need some permissions managment, like "only community members can vote" or "only community members can see posts". And those might be attached to every post or not depending on how the community is configured.
You also have the ability to restrict users based on certain rules or roles. Like on Reddit, no posting if your account is less than X days old, etc.. Certain members may be allowed to upvote but not post etc..
You may set it so new users can only see any posts made after they joined or not. And then they are also exempted from forking those posts.
Automatic timeouts for when posts should be deleted would also be nice. Also togglable community wise.
Basically setting the platform up to be as public or as private as the community wants.
Would be pretty complex though and not that essential. And might break the whole fork model.
