[Meta] This community shouldn't allow image posts (lemmy.ca)

Not only are image posts less accessible, they're much lower effort. This community was much better when it was just structured jokes as text posts. Now it's getting posts with the less than pointless "rule" crap and it's slowly becoming yet another s#%$post community and losing what made it special.

I mean, if a fediverse community gets bombarded by fediverse users submitting post which:

A) they think fit B) some others think fit And C) can be filtered

Given the tiny fedi numbers, this seems like a good problem to have?

If it's a big thing, surely we could make, recommend and enjoy a dadjokesforpurists splinter?

(Admittedly, not sober now so...)

    If your goal is just "moar posts", then sure, there's no problem, but it will also subsume the original (and imo better) form of this comm as people who just see it as another meme community post low effort images for the attention. I don't think that's worth losing for more content, but for some people it will be.
