Please don't expect the community to give you answers to your questions which you then delete right afterwards. Those of us who put time into answering your questions are not doing so just to serve your personal needs, we are here to help build a community knowledge base that others can search and reference.

This has become a chronic issue with Lemmy and its starting to feel like it's a waste of time to answer questions.

I imagine this is a controversial opinion....but isn't the idiomatic solution to this to either:

petition the mods to get this rule added and enforced

or

To start a community that enforces this rule and let it compete with this one.

Isn't that the whole idea of federation?

    I'm keen to know how that would be written much less enforced. # deletes and you're out? That's a lot to keep up with unless there were some automated way of doing that.

    I wasnt suggesting it would be easy, in fact i think it would be rather difficult on both fronts.

    My comment was more about the method by which this kind of thing was intended to be addressed.
