News and Discussions about Reddit

Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules


Rule 1- No brigading.

**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **

YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.



Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

After 13 years, I had quit reddit 1st June 2023. At the time I joined beehaw (lemmy.world didn't exist) and used the redact utility to delete all my posts/comments (we could at the time delete instead of mass editing.

I lurk sometimes some niche communities or go on reddit from google search, I never comment or upvote. I sometimes click on my user to see there was no comments/saved/etc.

Yesterday, randomly, I clicked on my username and saw all my 2023 and less post, 13 years of comments, I was like WTF, after 2 years, reddit decided to take an old backup or something and undelete all my comments!!!

As now redact only do mass editing and pretty slowly, I used something else, https://github.com/Jelly-Pudding/ereddicator/tree/main, followed instructions, it deleted ~3600 comments in less than 2 hours.

I'll monitor from time to time if reddit keep undeleting them, to feed their AI...

I believe that useful knowledge should be open and accessible to everyone for any reason (within reason of course, you might want to keep some things private), so I’m against your decision, but in the end you’re the owner of what you create so it’s your decision

You might answer "who asked?" and you would be right haha
