Hey folks, is this a new interpretation of Rule 3 in /c/selfhosted? We've had a lot of threads about storage, pools, filesystems, hardware related to self-hosting over the years and they've been plenty useful for me. I've also helped people with such issues when I had the expertise.

Today I asked a question related to filesystem setup for a server and that post got removed citing Rule 3. I looked at the modlog and it appears a few other posts have been removed too. Is this right?

This exact thing has happened to me on c/selfhosted. Made a post asking for help on setting up my storage for a proxmox vm and got a couple helpful replies before the mods removed it, simply because I failed to mention what software I was planning to host in the VM. Pretty silly, and I think it hurts the community by removing those helpful responses.
