        I agree, I think it would be better to use something like dependabot or renovatebot so you can know of and apply security updates right away.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.
