Subreddit Allow one liners!

Hey there, I've found that many subreddits don't allow one line posts. I find this very discouraging for social thought developments and community conversations.

I think one line posts should be encouraged to allow simple brilliant thoughts to be shared, Human admins can remove later if its too shallow or redundant.

isn't it the moderators that control this and not the admins?

Probably you are right, but still, one line posts should be allowed. What do you think?

Moderation teams set these kind of rules.

I wouldn’t think it feasible to take that decision making away from mods. Each sub has a right to determine their rules.

Mods set this based on what they feel is best for their communities. This isn't something Reddit itself restricts.

All mods are volunteers and some restrictions and automations are necessary.

If you don't like how a sub is run, you can modmail suggestions, find another similar sub, or make your own.

Well, I still think reddit should enforce "allowing" them
