For things that are "hmmm".

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

(Discussion) Would people be interested in a "no text" rule? (lemmy.world)

I believe that banning text-focused posts would give the community more identity. The posts that have text in big part seem like content you'd encounter in any other meme/political community anyway. This is just a discussion post to see how the community feels about these. Thank you.

Maybe no screenshots in general?

Well, this would essentially prevent screenshot posts by extension. Unless you mean random, ugly ui elements but with no text in which case it wouldn't.

E: When mocking up new rules for the community I will try to write something to account for posts like those: https://lemmy.world/post/48711011

I intend to make a post in a few days with the proposal for new rules for additional feedback and to make sure that the community is on board and that nothing is too vague and such.

E2: Actually, after looking a bit more I think I will propose another one for allowing only image posts since there was a case(s?) of sharing an article link.
