There needs to be actual content rules. TIL worked best when the mods actually adhered to those content rules. Otherwise you just have people posting all kinds of nonsense. Quality is better than quantity
@Chozo if your post is 'TIL A star system exists' and you can't really tell us an interesting fact or piece of information about it, I'd say.. don't write something to be honest or if you really want to write about that thing, try to find something interesting about it to actually submit. TIL on Reddit also has a rule about titles standing on their own. Yes you can expand on topics inside the submission, but people should get something simply from reading your title. A lot of those titles don't really give you anything at all.
I just came across this TikTok "#boycott#Kelloggs for their #LetThemEatCereal for dinner" remark", and I love how clear the goal and mechanism to achieve it are: if enough people do this one fairly little thing for a full quarter, the powerful will notice, and can be forced to change their behavior.
This is the last week of the #LetThemEatCereal#KelloggsBoycott. Starting Monday July 1st, we move on to the third quarter collective action, by boycotting Nestlé products until September 30.

#AllStarTrek Holy crap! Did #Janeway just casually threaten to kill all of the Nyrians by hypothermia if they didn't agree to her terms? Damn that's... uh... cold!
