[META] Can we limit new posts to one per person per day?

Meta

This sub rocks. I LOVE it.

But can we limit the number of new threads a user can start in a single 24-hour period to just one? There are lots of conspiracies in the world, and lots that can be discussed, but can a single user REALLY find more than one compelling conspiracy worth discussing in a single day?

I don't want to gatekeep, but I see a lot of duplicate threads, and I see a lot of 'power-users' posting several threads a day, leading to a shitty signal-to-noise ratio.

Do y'all agree? Two new threads a day?

Well then they’d just use separate accounts

The commons is pointless.

Scroll down? In a brainstorm things get cluttery.

no hate, I like the stories and discussions here, but sorting by new requires A LOT of work

Not really. Im not clicking on everything as I scroll. Title better be good, topic I'm interested in or a new twist to a story, better have an SS: or I down vote without reading. New isn't that difficult, it's all I browse. I do agree that the content has been watered down but I believe that was done on purpose.

New is the only way to fly, hot and top are just propaganda pushed by bots

So the repetitive threads and the posters who make 10+ political posts per day are somehow 'worth the effort'?

But how else would the pro-POTUS stuff get in front of enough eyeballs if the people pushing the state's message had a limit? It is hard to get the right low effort maga meme to the front page without testing various ones.

No one is gonna take your argument seriously if you use partisan language like this. Even though I agree with you.

The partisans in control here have demonstrated their own bias. Serious people know which side they are on. Calling them out isn't taking the opposing side.
