I asked you guys last week what we should do about YouTube videos and 55% of the people who voted said we should allow them to continue, but only if the user who submits the link also have some kind of submission statement in the comments. Just for comparison's sake, the next highest option was to completely ban YT links altogether, which earned 27% of the vote, followed by people who said they didn't have any opinion (9%) and people who wanted no restrictions on YT links (7%).

​

Sooooo... we'll take a chance on allowing YouTube links for now, so long as the user who submits them posts a (minimum) two sentence submission statement that explains what other users can expect to see in the video posted. Any post that does not follow this simple rule will be removed. While I try not to curate content too much on this subreddit, the people who actually visit the sub are clearly tired of generic YT links and so it has become necessary to make this change. I will be adding a rule to the sidebar shortly.

​

Thanks for understanding, and I hope that this change will help our community feel more organic and authentic. Let me know if you have more suggestions about YT links and how to handle them, or even just general suggestions for the subreddit in the comments below.
