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.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

MODERATORS
I understand that you should be able to access websites however you want. But what reasons would someone have to use a VPN to access reddit?
I use a VPN all the time primarily because I don't like the idea of being a data point for profit.
Because ISP's, DNS servers, and 99.99% of websites are harvesting your data for profit?
Why not use a VPN at all times? I trust the top VPN companies with my data more than any ISP on the planet...
Why does there need to be a reason?
The question you should be asking is why does reddit care what I'm doing on my own computer?
They don't. They do care to whom they serve data using the bandwidth and servers they pay for.
Living in Texas where they blocked all the porn? Redgifs was hit the other day and now porn is basically pointless on Reddit.
Ah forgot about that. Texas is a silly place.
On second thought, let's not go to Texas tis a silly place...
Watch yourself! We only use Monty Python for happy things!
B-- b-- but Father!
Nope.
My mobile provider manipulates and likely sells my network traffic. Also it hides tethering. My home ISP was confirmed to snoop and sell.
