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.

    Trimming dead posts regularly.

    NSFW communities have an interesting quirk which is that a large number of people sort by top all. If you find a new community, you want to find out what is the best it offers. You do this typically by sorta by top all.

    However, with people deleting posts, or links breaking, top all is sometimes plagued with empty posts, and it can be frustrating trying to explore this new community, especially if it’s more niche.
