Interesting discussion, I'm leaning towards no, for me it depends on maternal ancestry, but I'm defs avoiding families who have a history of cousin marriages, hell nah to that.
Is Marrying Someone from your own Clan Considered 'Incest'?

No
No, just your clan (I know the notion is ridiculous but play along).

lol as if people are going to disapprove when most of their parents are from the same clans
Honestly depends if someone from your own clan gives you the ick
How, most clans are big, I mean 10s of thousand to 100s of thousands. Unless we are talking in the sense of sub sub sub sub sub clans
Of course not, hence the quote marks
But according to that Reddit post, some people get the ick, not cosigning btw
Lol, @genetic diversity. Does your clan consist of your immediate relatives and are they so numerically small you fear close cousin marriage? That is beyond ridiculous. The truth is you are better off marrying someone your family knows enough about, with good manners and etiquette that they approve of and I presume their closest networks consist of clan contacts.
Contrary to popular belief arranged marriages are more satisfying and have greater longevity. This whole meeting some random even if he's Somali doesn't sit well with me. They could be a proverbial wildcard and the relationship could be founded not on shared life vision, and values along with ideological, spiritual, and lifestyle compatibility but purely on limerance/infatuation. That's a gamble and not worth the time and psychological investment.

Do you know how big tribes are? By tribes are you talking about Isaaq, Darood, Hawiye ect? They have at least a million in each and even if it’s subtribes like MJ, Habr Yonis or Abgaal, they have like hundreds of thousands and then when you get to your sub-tribe you have thousands. In what way is that anything close to being related? Yes you may share ancestors from hundreds of years ago, but that doesn’t mean related.
