I don't know what everyone means when they use 'rule' in the title and at this point I'm too afraid to ask. Please enlighten me.

Isn't it a rule to have rule in the title as well?

[-] 4am@lemm.ee 39 points 5 months ago

It’s not, but it’s become sort of a de-facto tradition to cite the fact that you are posting because of the rule by adding the word “rule” cleverly (or, sometimes, not-so-cleverly) to the title

It is actually in the rules now

If you're talking about Lemmy's 196, it's not a rule and never was for us. "Post before you leave" is a "rule" but titling it rule is not. It's just an injoke.

It actually was, in one of the stickied posts. Looks like it's been replaced though.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
