Hi all,

In this community we have not banned reposts, but discouraged them to help keep the community fresh. However, we are revisiting this policy. Sometimes reposts can be meaningful and timely, and we want to acknowledge that. So as mods, we are reaching out to you all to hear your opinion. What should our policy be? No reposts whatsoever, or allowing them if relevant and timely, or as many reposts as you like! Comment with your thoughts!

Here are a couple articles that live rent free in my head and I'll be tempted to repost: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erfurt_latrine_disaster

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_the_far_future

This comment filled me with joy. It makes me so happy that mutual appreciation for the different groups of people who make this space work is more possible here because its all more human and takes place at a more intimate scale where relation is possible

Thanks for running this space, I really enjoy being part of it :)
