Should we allow creating posts like ".NET News Daily Issue" in this community? (lemmy.ml)

I don't want to be rude and I don't accuse people posting these kind of links here of having bad intentions, but I personally find them kind of annoying. There is too much of them right now and it's hard to even start a discussion, when there is no information in the title on what's actually inside.

I believe we should stick to "one topic, one post". What do you think?

I'm not sure what exactly you mean, but the most recent post in this comm before yours is three weeks old. Maube there's someone prolific posting that I have blocked, but I'm not sure that less posts would be good.

    It looks like this when I enter this community:

    Like the other commenter responded, I blocked them ages ago. Which means you're right, imo. If the community mod is around, those posts are awful spam and that account should be warned at a bare minimum.

    No actual details without click-through, barely any comments, just those posts. And there's no way there's enough .NET new to justify a new article every damn day.

    Edit: looks like the site is just an aggregator of other blog's RSS feeds, dressed up "pretty" into daily posts that are almost entirely lists of links. Regurgitation.

    At the very least, the account posting those needs to be clearly labeled as a bot account (the account owner can check that box in the account settings).
