Does it matter HOW you write community rules? Research across thousands of subreddits suggests yes. "Be nice" beats "don't be mean" for community sentiment. But there's no one-size-fits-all approach. New Pro-Social recap with @galenweld.bsky.social: www.prosocialdesign.org/blog/the-rig...

That should be 4:30 pm 🤦🤦

If you're at @acm-cscw.bsky.social #cscw in Bergen, come check out our 🏆honorable mention paper today on Reddit community governance (w/ @axz.bsky.social @timalthoff.bsky.social ). 4pm in Dovregubben-2! More in thread... 🧵

Some nice coverage of our paper (and award) from ICWSM back in June. Big congrats to @lleibm.bsky.social on his successful first author paper, and big things to @timalthoff.bsky.social and @axz.bsky.social for their support as always!

Also, I know it’s the end of the day, but I am chairing the last 2 #ICWSM sessions on Virality, Political Coordination, & Reddit. These are going to be great sessions with work from @zsavvas90.bsky.social @imadityav.bsky.social @tanumitra.bsky.social @munmun10.bsky.social +more! Don’t miss it :)

Super surprised and honored to receive the single Best Paper award at #ICWSM this year (out of 138 papers) for my work with @lleibm.bsky.social, @axz.bsky.social, @timalthoff.bsky.social on Reddit Rules! bsky.app/profile/gale...

If you're at #ICWSM, be sure to swing by the spotlight session after lunch to check our our work on Reddit rules with @axz.bsky.social , @timalthoff.bsky.social and Leon Leibmann! Leon is presenting an analysis of 68k rules across 5 yrs, connecting them to important community outcomes.
