What gatekeeping? All I’m saying is people shouldn’t come to a Not Just Bikes community and complain about links to a platform co-owned by Not Just Bikes. That’s the equivalent of going to !politics and complaining about a link to political news.
Not Just Bikes is the name of a YouTube channel run by Jason Slaughter, focused on good urbanism. It takes its name from the thesis: “what makes cities in the Netherlands so much better than most of the rest of the developed world (but especially Canada and America)? It’s not just bikes.” In essence, it’s about urbanism in all forms. Bikes, yes, but also public transport, density, land use, etc.
The second part is finally a very good example for a reply that is not gatekeeping but actually helpful.
Would perhaps be a good idea to have that exact paragraph be put at the top of the community description.
And regarding the first part:
If stumbling across a post linking to inaccessible content in any community:
Instant reaction will always be leaving a “Paywalled” or similar comment.
That’s just basic netiquette to inform other users and give the OP a hint that he might want to do something about it.
