Feedback needed for new rules V2!

Thank you for all the feedback you provided, using your feedback, we've come to these new rules:

    1. Be civil. Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
    1. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as unbiased and reliable as possible. Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blacklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods.
    1. No bots, spam or self-promotion. Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
    1. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title is wrong / incorrect, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.
    1. Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days. No opinion pieces, editorials or celebrity gossip is allowed.
    1. No duplicate posts. If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
    1. No link shorteners, the auto mod will contact you if they are detected.

Once again, we are asking for some feedback. This can be anything from spelling / grammar checks to fundamental changes. Let this be a place to make these rules as perfect as possible.

Please keep in mind that the blacklist is currently still in development. We are looking for some sites we should block, so if you know some, let us know.

Thank you for your help everyone!
