A (work in progress) community of cool links.

This community will eventually be accompanied by a bot to enforce formatting standards, and all links here will be collected and fed to a webpage, where you will be randomly sent to a cool website, based on hashtags and upvotes. Exact details and implementation coming soon.

Usage

• Post links and links only.
  • If you're posting outside Lemmy and Kbin, the first line of your post should be a link. Put the community mention at the very last line.
• All posts must have body text with nothing but a list of at least 3 hashtags (space separated, #PascalCase formatted)
  • If you have any personal commentary, put that on the comments / replies.
• Avoid editorializing titles. Feel free to remove any "clutter" though.
• Upvote / favourite liberally, based on how interesting you found a link.
  • Not all topics will interest everyone, so please avoid downvoting unless you're doing so on obvious trolls and spam, in which case accompany that downvote with a report.

Linking to the following are prohibited

• Memes
• Current Events & News stories
  • Ideally, the links here should be "timeless"
• Anything with "too much politics"
  • Certain things, such as trans people existing, are not politics. 🏳️‍⚧️
• Press Releases
• Anything that "smells like bigotry"
  • Yes, this is a "safe space"
  • If this feels like censorship to you, you're welcome to make your own community
• Anything NSFW
• Lemmy communities, Kbin magazines, or other social media accounts
  • This rule may be relaxed overtime as the rush of everyone creating their own community dies down, and interesting communities start developing by themselves.
  • In the meanwhile, there are better places to advertise your new community.

Linking to the following are allowed with the correct hashtags

• Anything you created, within reason
  • Use #SelfPromotion

Recommendations

• Prefer links to personal blogs, small communities, and other cooler parts of the net. Avoid "blogspam" and corporate SEO farming bullshit.
• More hashtags the better, as they will be used for filtering when the web UI gets implemented.
