We need more variety here, the sub had sooo much more content. I like what's here so far but damn we need more dank memes and less saccharine shit. Is this because we can't post memes?

      feels like the rules set by the mods are suffocating this fledgling space.

        It's because there's someone spamming the site. You can thank them.

        this isn't really a part of the rules though, I'm pretty sure the karma limits right now are just baked into Lemmy and were imported into this with the rest of it. Something we can change later for sure, but it's not like we've specially set it up like this as far as I'm aware.

            I don't think anyone's prevented from posting in general, it seems like either a ratelimit or a limit on things like image uploads when having first joined the site, but I'm not sure.

              There’s been a karma threshold put in place for posting threads. Iirc it’s 10 for threads and 20 for image threads. It’s so the spammer has to actually comment a bit before getting to posting.

              Rate limiting is still in the dev pipeline.
