Is promotion to the Frontpage automated? Do mods take an approve by default and then demote stuff they think is not worth promoting?
Iโm used to the LessWrong approach of blogpost by default, and mods manually approve promotion to the front page. Iโm not sure I want to make the decision for the community if my post should be on the front page. But I do want it to be promoted to the front page if the mods approve it.
I feel like promotion to front page by default will disincentivise demotion to personal blog post if a post has high engagement irrespective of whether itโs otherwise frontpage material.

As I understand it, posts are frontpage by default unless you or a mod decide otherwise.
