What about this 'rule' thing in post titles? (lemmy.world)

Honestly I don't know if it's something Lemmy-only, but I see many post titles ending with the world rule for no apparent reason

It's just a rule from those particular communities. You have to post something before you leave and it has to have the word rule in the title. It's just a silly thing they do.

It's specifically 196, which comes from the reddit 196. If you see it elsewhere it's just due to memeing

Thanks! But what does 'before you leave' mean?
