This community is for photography and interesting images. This isn't the place for shitposts about trump overshadowing quality posts. There's already 10 other communities people can go to for that.

And more. Can we ban these low effort political posts and go back to having a decent community? Thanks.

Instead of forcing a fediverse to ban certain posts, why don't you just block them from your side? Just blacklist certain words.

Unlike previous social media sites that drive on engagement, here we have that option.

If you don't enforce rules on what content is allowed in a community, they all start blending together. That's one part of why the big Reddit subs are shit.
