@curbstickle@anarchist.nexus - as per your suggestion, here is the AI tags discussion, which I imagine you've been eyeballing.
I don't know where this leaves the community, nor how many responders are part of the community vs lookie loos. I would have put up a staw poll but that likely wouldn't have helped much, signal:noise wise.
As the mod, do you have a read on all this or a preferred direction going forward?

As I already mentioned, I won't be putting anything up for the week as the other rule gets closed out to not inundate, so do not expect any action this week.
That said, it absutely confirmed my expectations, and I'll be looking into some automod options and discussing with the .world team to find out if there are any known issues with them, so that a few options can be presented in the next sticky.
So state of play / preview of coming attractions - yes to tags, once tagged, cannot complain about said tagged content. Formal sticky etc next week.
PS: I took a look at r/selfhosted - their bot seems to delete ALL new project posts and requires user to appeal / resubmit / verify directly. I think that's problematic (and ironic, if you think about it - you're trying to litigate ai/no ai with a bot) but not my circus, not my monkeys.
Yeah that's not a method I'm interested in. A comment for OP to post under? Yep.
We'll see what works for folks next week.
