Welcome!
For the rules, could you use different formatting? A lot of users use mobile apps, and some of them don’t format markdown the way Lemmy does. The spoiler tag in particular doesn’t get rendered in a lot of them.
For example, this is what I see in Boost:

Perhaps you can do something like
## Rules
1: 😇 Be Nice!
- Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: **friendly**
2: 👶 Keep it at PG
Which will format like this
Rules
1: 😇 Be Nice!
- Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly
2: 👶 Keep it at PG
You could also shorten some of them to make it more likely that people will read them. For example, moving this to the bottom of the rules section, or taking it out entirely:
Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanantly banned from posting.
I also liked the old sidebar’s guidance on “complete stories” because it sums up what this community is intended for and differentiates it from “comics” and “memes”. I don’t know if it needs to be stated explicitly, but you could potentially include it right at the top with the description line.
I’m also happy to help out if the moderation load gets too much to handle. Feel free to add my LW account if at any point the team could use more hands: https://lemmy.world/u/otter












Cat might need three, if we are going off the assumption that it needs to take out all three hearts. Although I think octopi have one “brain” type organ
