Sorry I had to run and didn’t get to wrap up my thought.

I don’t really mind if a post isn’t a perfect fit. I try to give the benefit of the doubt. If we had hundreds of really strong posts every day then I imagine I would be more strict. Lemmy is small so at least we can be friendly and supportive in decisions that aren’t clear cut.
