Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Do not use a window for sunlight?! How else am I to obtain sunlight?

I'll add a very, very important thing. Use an app to kill the blue light coming off your screen(s). Notice how when you see a TV screen from the street or behind curtains it's always blue?

Notice how the dawn starts out bluish and dusk goes red? The blue light is energizing you, telling you to be awake.

The likely reason they say to not view through a window is because you won't get any vitamin D through a window and it also reduces the brightness compared to being outside. Get the app Lux on your phone which can measure brightness and it's a phenomenal difference how much brighter it is outside without really seeming like it
