First of all, I’m not a mod, just a curious user. I was told the rules exist because it was a rule of the original reddit and the community demands it. For me personally, it feels like I’m told how to have fun, so I’m very curious if you like/dislike this rule or if you’re indifferent.

    The only person who should crack an egg is the person inside that egg, and only through personal realization and self-understanding. The title rule helps us not step over that incredibly important boundary line.

    I very much agree with this, if only people in the Reddit version cared about this, many of the people I met there believed it was their duty to force people out who aren’t ready, either because they didn’t know better or didn’t care. Also Reddit unlike Lemmy has the flaw of showing fully maximized posts in the feed so the title thing doesn’t help, the bad stuff will hit you as you’re scrolling.
