What about this 'rule' thing in post titles?
What about this 'rule' thing in post titles?
Honestly I don't know if it's something Lemmy-only, but I see many post titles ending with the world rule for no apparent reason
You're viewing a single thread.
It's just a rule from those particular communities. You have to post something before you leave and it has to have the word rule in the title. It's just a silly thing they do.
It's specifically 196, which comes from the reddit 196. If you see it elsewhere it's just due to memeing
Thanks! But what does 'before you leave' mean?
It's
a communityan instance with a rule that if you log in to the website, you have to make a post before you leave (ie log out). The "rule" bit is people indicating that the post is because of the rule, and it caught on. Irritatingly enough.I thought it was just 196? Not all. Blahaj
No idea. I must have stopped following the relevant communities because I rarely see it any more.
Oh dear god. Well thanks a lot for the explanation 🥲
