Edit: This rule seems to be much more nuanced and requires more thought than we had put in, please continue to discuss below.
It is NOT in effect at this time but highly recommend for regional subreddits at least.
The above rule has been added to the instance and will be enforced instance wide. This rule is very common within most existing communities where news articles are shared and avoids sensationalizing the story or attempts at steering discussion by the user posting the article.
what if the original article title is already massively “editorialized” and you’re just making it more informative? 🤔 “You WON’T believe what Russia did today!”
That doesn’t sound like an article worth posting tbh
Then we should probably not be linking to that source.
What if the discussion is intended to be about the issues with that source, and the article is being linked as an example?
