Well, unless your sub isn’t dedicated to some “obscure craft practiced in one specific valley in the eastern Alps” (you catch my drift) nuking “things that aren’t wante” is borderline squatting, particularly if the sub is something as generic as “diy”... demanding that one read an FAQ as lawyerly as an EULA on penalty of deletion is not necessary.
- DanBC 9y agoI agree with you. The other point that the deletionists miss is that sending people elsewhere just doesn't work; it's never worked. All those mods need to keep /r/diy as a dump for everything they don't like, and setup /r/truediy as their pure diy sub.
- andrewflnr 9y agoI catch your drift, but I'm pretty sure I disagree. I would just like it if, say, r/programmerhumor was actually programmer humor, without all the software gore and bad UI. Because all those things are easier to find, they'll crowd out the desired content. That will continue if you try to move to /r/realprogrammerhumor per DanBC's suggestion, unless the new mods are more zealous.
