Please don't expect the community to give you answers to your questions which you then delete right afterwards. Those of us who put time into answering your questions are not doing so just to serve your personal needs, we are here to help build a community knowledge base that others can search and reference.

This has become a chronic issue with Lemmy and its starting to feel like it's a waste of time to answer questions.

To give you some context, I initially made this comment on OP's post. Then I followed up with this comment after the resignation of a moderator on !selfhosted@lemmy.world.

I was referring to the former moderator's very bizarre interpretation of Rule 3. You'll see in the modlogs that many posts that were clearly about selfhosting getting removed under Rule 3.
