There needs to be rules on what can and can’t be posted, otherwise, there’s no reason for communities, and we’d all need to just search a big bucket for whatever we were interested in, or just scroll forever.
That said, yeah, a question community should allow any type of question, and if over time, the “how do I…” questions take over, then so be it. This becomes help community, because that’s what the people want.
Upvoting and downvoting should be enough for the people to decide what they want for their community. It should not be so heavily guarded by mods. Moderation, not dictation.
