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.
It's a real shame. There is a treasure trove of information on there for niche topics, and years of researching problems and questions etc. It really sucks that it's gotten to this point.
the niche subs are going to suffer, im guessing they can still go to other forums. medical and military (joining) sitll have very established forums out there. not so much for other subs.
Since ~2014 I would search reddit before google for information. I'm sure as traffic picks up here it will become a better source.
I've only been here a couple weeks myself and the amount of new users has skyrocketed in the last week from what ive seen.
I do miss some of the niche subs over there , some of them are here too but not nearly as much engagement...yet
Fuck reddit
We have moderators here too. Significantly more adequate, I would even say nice, but still. And they delete messages from time to time and even ban people. So keep being vigilant.
I don't appreciate the Luigi praise or the DOGE leaks, either, but I recognize that I'm in the minority on Lemmy (lol) & idk to a certain extent I respect freedom of speech. The DOGE email leak is public info, in that it was leaked to the public....
In any case, we're all in agreement: R!ddit deserves to die. Just because they were the first runaway success public forum doesn't mean they own it forever. Especially when they shit the bed, suppress freedom of speech, kill 3rd party apps, & farm out user data for AI scraping.
Suppressed_news is still around.
I've been editing my thousands of comments over the past few days (via a script obviously). Fuck them.
ive justed deleted them, but i was using an extension to do it so its midly slower, there seems to be faster ways to delete them,.
It’s insane how crazy it’s gotten. I got like IP banned because I made a pretty calm but snarky remark at someone telling people they didn’t care about a kid dying because they weren’t donating to the funeral (which like, wat).
So I’m hoping it’s at least a little better here
Every subreddit that is banned needs to be recreated on Lemmy out of principle. Unless it's gonna get our guy sued.
Cries in all my favorite niche subs being ghost towns here… but it’s ok, general subs got it going on alright :-)
If only lemmy posts showed up on search engines, reddit would be finished.
Dude! How the FUCK aren’t you triggered by 19 unanswered messages? I would have flipped my shit after 2!
Welcome! Enjoy your stay, and if you see that we're missing a community you want, be the change you want to see in the world!
I’m kind of surprised r/50501 hasn’t been banned yet for inciting violence…
they are probably flagged, on thin ice. but conservative probably wont even touch the sub, because the cons will just flood other subs and cry about it.
