Given the limited number of links shared in this community, I propose a rule to discourage the inclusion of Twitter links and the use of Twitter screenshots.
While I understand the desire to integrate platforms like Reddit and Twitter, I believe it’s important to maintain a focused and independent discourse within this community.
I have long desired to minimize the integration of external platforms like Reddit and Twitter within this community. However, I’ve noticed an increasing trend of their exclusion, prompting me to formally propose this guideline here too.
I would appreciate everyone’s input on this proposed rule. I wouldn’t add a rule unless the community is largely interested in it.
PS. Sorry for not being active enough here recently. I’ll get back to it soon.
Id I may ask the question, I wonder if there is a need for such a rule already? I mean, it is not like there is a lot of activity going on nor much Twitter/Reddit links posted, or am I missing something?
To be clear, I have nothing against the idea, I just wonder if there is need to decide now.
There has never been a twitter link shared in this community and its not a major threat per se.
I just decided to go through all the communities I created and block twitter now if people agreed. I’ve posted this message on like 6 of them. (Although ideally I would like to ban all centralised social media links at least)
It’s just formalising what many of us believe (on Lemmy atleast, that’s why we’re here).
As for the lack of activity on this community, that’s my bad, I’ll be getting back to posting soon.
