So now that Lemmy and the community overall are getting a lot of attention, with /c/memes being one of the biggest communities across instances, I think we should be a bit more strict about certain things.
I’d like your opinion, though. What do you think about a rule about only allowing images, and that such images need to be uploaded to Lemmy instead of linking to something like Imgur. I think that text and videos are a better fit for some other community (at least until we get something where we are able to play videos within Lemmy).
Agree with this, there’s also instances like mine that have a very low file size limit for uploaded images (100kb) in order to keep hosting costs down.
That’s fair, but this community is hosted on lemmy.ml so you can still have that rule, images are cached and shared among servers without the need of each server actually having to own it on their server.
