I love new music, but I don’t follow links to music unless I know I’ll like the genre. For anyone that migrated, r/listentothis is my prime example (I don’t know if they ever came back online, so I’m unsure if anyone can go back to reference)
Example - title, artist [genre]
Wolves of the Revolution, The Arcadian Wild [folk][bluegrass]
Any rule adds a burden to the mod team. It can be made easier with auto-mod software, but we should make it clear we’re asking for more labor from volunteers.
That being said, I’d love a rule to prevent directly linking to youtube, and using invidious or piped instead. I’ll mod if it helps to enforce the rule.
Might be possible to have a bot that auto-converts youtube.com links to yewtu.be?
