My understanding is that r/cycling was created partly to avoid all of those bike picture posts. They got to be a bit much. I know I personally left r/bicycling in order to avoid those posts. I found them tedious and boring because there was so much of them.

That being said, m/cycling is not r/cycling, so those old rules don’t apply.

My preference, however, is to generally not have them. Most don’t really generate any new or interesting discussion.

Ah, got it. I could see them getting to be a bit much. I wanted to post a bit of the background and also some of the things about the bike and purchasing decision to maybe give a some more value to the community. Not sure if they worked.

EDIT: Oh, I found a community on Lemmy.world that appears to be dedicated to people sharing their bikes: !xbiking@Lemmy.world
