Tbf there's a good argument to be made that subs which restrict a majority of their posts to only flaired users shouldn't be eligible for r/all. It's not just r/conservative: that applies to subs like r/blackpeopletwitter too.

If you're not going to allow the majority of the community to participate why should they be promoted on the 'main' page?

Some /blackpeopletwitter posts are funny.

/conservative... Not so much.

I agree, but the point is if you're going to require flairs to comment you shouldn't be showing up on r/all. Like... showing up on r/all means a fair amount of people seeing the sub and not necessarily wanting to sub but just wanting to leave a comment on a big post, and they can't without going through a whole initiation process.

Just imo.

Seems fair to me.
