I thought of a possible workaround. Perhaps doing all the text in a nice info graphic and then not using any of those keywords in your title. I can promise you the 1st or second comment will be "what is lemmy?" or some stupid sheeet like that.
On the same note I don't think they care so much about the little subs. I can be wrong
The thing is, I think there is a risk associated with it though. But with all thing related to love and war the truth gets mixed in with the deception.
I agree with keep things positive. but it does not make for a good rule. say now someone posts something about stage 20 loadshedding? will this get removed because its not about a sunny day and butterflies?
Perhaps the solution for that is to rather encourage Positive content to be created by the community. via a weekly event where you ask what made your week? or its Friday lets meme or stuff like that? Make post about stories about our heritage. Also remember you can champion a form of this, because what content you choose to supply the sub now will effect what future people will want to post.
I'm a mod from r/RSA and our motto is to encourage a healthy discussion even if you don't agree with it. this allows you to see the opposite sides perspective and ultimately results in revelations to work forward. Also remember that too many rules nomatter how good the intentions are, could cause the opposite effect. a good example of this is infact what happened to r/southafrica.
overmoderation causes not only unnecessary work for mods but also creates frustration within the community. sometimes what you as a admin want goes against what the community wants and vice versa. so with this in mind really think deeply and broadly about rules that you would want to have. basic good rules are, no hate speach, no racism, no doxxing.
also things to keep in mind, is that the world of the anonymous internet there will be bad faith actor's and they come in all forms to infiltrate your community. sometimes there goal is to soak emails so that they can sell them to advertisers, sometimes it's spamming ads for their crypto get rich quick investments. ect ect
Yeah samezies, I don't know what has bean going on but would love to know
It is based on the logo for lemmy, so yes it is a lemming

Reddit permanently bans account of user advocating Lemmy migration, and bans r/LemmyMigration
there is a starting guide pinned at the top of lemmy.world
Starting guide
I think the strategy would be to just get them an account and figure it out from that point otherwise they get disoriented with information
step 1 - join lemmy.world
step 2 - join south africa
step 3 - say hi and we can help from there
something like that?
You sir, are well informed.
Thanks for that link, it does help a lot.

IDK just adding to the mix here
I found this one someone made for r/RSA a while ago when I was going throught the archives
