Am I imagining it or has flagging become more frequent? I wanted to suggest that might warrrant an update to the policy on the FAQ and maybe an announcement if it's official.

I think the community is in a phase right now, driven by the massive increase in clawd spam. So the flag button is likely getting clicked more and that has leakage.

Flagging is something the community does, not the two official moderators. What do you see changing in the FAQ?

josefritzishere•1h ago
That makes sense and is certainly legitimate. But I was noticing some politicla topics seem to be most likely to be flagged. I also sometimes see them get flagged before the thread even gets long. So I was wondering if some poltical topics are just off-limits.
