I would watch them from time to time before this, usually on a subject I already had a degree of interest in. This video was the first that made me realize they were a form of entertainment unto themselves, not just an educational tool though.
Could you edit the title to include the title and duration of the video in there? Just for peoples’ info when they’re deciding what to watch.
This video is one of my favorites, too. Honestly I’m just a huge fan of hbomb in general.
Is that good enough, or would you prefer it in identical format to the others, with my little personalization kept to the body instead of the title? Also, perhaps we can add the preferred title format to the rules instead of the “What to Post” section, which I admit I skimmed past because I thought I already knew what video essays were. :p
Nah, they don’t need to be identical format. I think the personalization is good as long as all the basic info is available.
That’s a good idea for a change. I didn’t want to give anyone the impression that they’d be punished for missing something in the title, but it would have better visibility inside the rules.
Oh I see. Could put it up top if you want. Then people skimming like I did won’t be able to skim past it, since it’s the first thing and you have to start skimming somewhere.
Moved em down into the rules. Look alright there for now?
I think ideally I’d like it if Lemmy could one day make it possible to include those guidelines on the “create a post” screen somehow.
Looks good to me. If I skimmed past that without seeing it, it’d definitely be my own damn fault, no way around it.
Posting without reading the rules is just silly. Not that people aren’t gonna do it, people can be pretty silly sometimes. But at least it’s clearly in there.
