Don’t take the short title too seriously; I could have said ‘encouraged’ instead of ‘enforced’, ‘rules’ instead of ‘habits’, whatever.

The point being, this is still a relatively small and young site where cultural change is possible. This opportunity doesn’t often come back. So, what culture do we want to have here?

Opening example: some sites require as a rule that a posted image must have a source or actor name given if it’s not OC. Myself, I sometimes intentionally avoid any compilation videos which don’t give sources, because I know it will take me down a hours-long rabbithole of discovery. Sourcing is already a global Community Guideline here, which is good to see.

    The admins of this site have added some basic mods onto the default Lemmy code (like nfsw-by-default), but I don’t think they’d want to develop tags as its own feature.

    I agree. The further one strays from the source code, the harder maintenance can be. Just ask Hexbear, who diverged a huge way from Lemmy before spending a large amount of effort making their code compatible enough to federate again.
