This post will be removed for not being tagged
- Haha, well spotted, I'll tag it for ya!
Why?
- Tags lets posts be more organized and easy on the eye. Take it as reddits "flairs".
  
  Why not wait until Lemmy introduces flairs?
  
  I'm pretty sure many people will not see this post hence moderation will need to jump into this.
You aren't going to apply this policy to *existing* posts, right?
- Only to new ones posted after that date. Old posts will remain.
Is there a list of "tags" we should be referring to? I want to ask the community for help finding a self-hosted alternative to a rather niche application. Would that be [Question] or [Help] or [Recommendation] or what?
- It's on the side panel of the sublemmy
So is this why people stopped posting here? Seems unnecessarily restrictive.
Should discussion posts be labeled other?
- [ChitChat]
- Can be either [Other] or like @AustralianSimon@lemmy.world said they can also be [ChitChat] or even [Discussion].
