Higher Quality Posts Wanted
Garbage IN, Garbage OUT!
- I have seen several posts which end up being false stories or disinformation, many of which end up being shared with others (such as family members) only to have to walk back their posts once they realize the posts were based on fake stories. This makes it harder to wake normies up.
- To help reduce the proliferation of disinformation, if you are creating a post please verify that what you are posting is accurate in its entirety.
- For example, if you want to post an image of a Twitter message instead of the Twitter link, verify that the post actually exists. It may be worth adding the link into a comment or an archived link in case people would like to also verify.
- Here is an actual example: https://greatawakening.win/p/15JUCeprCJ/got-your-coffee-walk-up-to-the-l/ While the image is real, the example thumbnails are not real. Either mark it a shitpost or perhaps we could post this with a new flair of "Disinformation Alert" or something.
- Let's work to make this community better, by being more accurate with what is and what is not for entertainment, and what is actually accurate enough to share with normies.
Also…. What if the prolific posters had their own aggregate column to the side so those so inclined could follow THEM. this would free up hundreds of slots in the open forum, as well as get a lot of duplicate posts out of the way.
agree
As much as I generally despise megathreads, they do have a lot of advantages:
One point of caution is that I strongly recommend the first post of megathreads be somewhat curated with direct links to key data that gets presented. It has to be selective of course, but no one wants to read through 1,200 posts worth of stuff looking for that one nugget of value that happens to be a link and which, without knowing it was there up front, you'd have no idea to search for it. I've seen Reddit megathread blow up well over 10,000 posts in days, and they're totally useless because of the noise, derailing, tangential discussion, etc.
No easy solutions.
That sounds like Telegram.
