Many people have asked for post guidelines. This is a good idea. Anyone have anything else they'd like to be in there?
How about posts with a link to reputable domains show a checkmark (green perhaps?). Hovering over the checkmark shows "verified external domain" or something. It's a matter of time before someone starts posting links to fake/scam websites.
The first verified domains could be the top 100-250 domains already posted on the platform.

IMO,
That introduces an uneven playing field that benefits the incumbents,
and
slippery slope towards censorship.

Maybe you are right about the uneven playing field. The WoT does not make it an even field for everyone posting already so this wasn't too far a stretch IMO.

It'd hard to determine which domains are reputable in a reliable way - this an entire business in itself.
I'm not sure it's necessary either. Trusted users won't upvote scams so scams shouldn't rank high.
Happy to change my mind though.
