I’m here for over a year and I still don’t get much of what’s going on here. For example, why posts are titled “rule”.

One of the rules of that community is “post before you leave.” People put “rule” in the post to indicate they’re complying with that rule.

Please excuse my ignorance, but what does “leave” mean in this context?

They’re imagining the community (the subreddit) as a space one enters by navigating to the community’s main page, and “leaving” it is going to do other things.

A rule that asks users to post before they leave seems arbitrary, that’s why it’s confusing to me. If people only post because it’s rule, I thought a logical consequence would be tons of posts of low quality.

So the community is 196, and it’s really just a fun shitposting/meme community (with a pretty big LGBTQ+ presence, for reasons that are actually kind of interesting). Biggest thing is to not treat the rule too seriously, while of course acting like it’s the most serious thing possible. If that kind of thing isn’t your speed though, no one will fault you for blocking the community. Unless you’re into raw-dogging lemmy like me, curating your own feed is a good idea (just note that you might see a lot less content - the correct move is make stuff you like until you see more of it in that case. It may take a while depending on what it is).
