Please only post a few posts to a community at a time.
Over the past week I've seen a few users posting dozens of photos all at once to the same community which could be seen as spamming. You may mean well by posting several posts at once, but because of lemmy’s limited algorithms this will saturate the feeds of many people on this instance and other instances.
What is considered spamming will be left up to the admins/mods, but if you’ve made more than 10 posts at a time in a single community, consider waiting until a later time to continue posting to that community.
edit to add: please limit cross posting the same image to 5 times or less
Spamming may result in a 1 day or longer community or sitewide ban depending on the severity and if it's a repeated offense.
Some things to consider to prevent spamming: If you have multiple images from a photoset, maybe post them all as one or two posts.
Reporting: If you want to report post spam please put "post spam" or something similar in the report, as it would be hard to tell from a single post reported that its breaking a rule
Slightly off topic, but as lemmy is so low volume, pretty often the same image shows up in the feed 3-4 times next to each other from someone crossposting to multiple communities. I would suggest that crossposting be limited as much as possible for that reason. As the post volume still is so small there's not much reason to even go to a topical community. I just check local once in a while and even then I quickly get down to already seen material so the chance of not seeing a post is pretty low unless it is a community I've blocked, but then odds are I won't like it anyway.
Just my opinion, of course. Thoughts?
I think there's merit to cross-posting, and until I see an egregious misuse of it I don't want to police users too much, I put this rule into place because I did see a ridiculous amount of posts in single communities. I'll talk with the other admins and see what their opinion is though.
