Community Beneficiary Settings
How does it work exactly? I don't see any way to actually enforce it, especially the non-removable part. If it is front-end only feature, doesn't it make Ecency worse? What is the benefit for the author? Unless I'm not familiar with some changes in Hivemind and now beneficiaries are enforced on Hivemind level (by auto muting posts not conforming to the rules, similar to posting to comment only/member only communities) in which case it makes sense to at least warn the author that their post won't show up normally in the community feed.
It is community specific, for example if you try to post into The Flame community which has this beneficiary setting, you will see in editor following info so you are aware that particular community has beneficiary setting. We are just showing information set by particular communities, hope it clarifies and answers your question? Each community owner has that setting now, we just displaying it to authors so they know before publishing.
