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.

Reddit supports open dialog as long as they agree with it

[–] Neon@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (7 children)

my brother in christ, I was banned from all lemmy.ml communities (fairphone, signal, selfhosted etc etc) because I dared talk about the uyghur genocide.

Lemmy is even worse.

[–] surph_ninja@lemmy.world -2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Do you have any source on the Uyghur genocide? Because everything I’ve seen has been debunked.

[–] Neon@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

Fuck off you fucking genocide-apologist

[–] IDKWhatUsernametoPutHereLolol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

I'm glad you're speaking out against Uyghur genocide, but having an israel flag in your username is kinda sus considering what's happening in Gaza.

[–] BlastboomStrice@mander.xyz 7 points 21 hours ago

Yeah, I scrolled the comments and kinda surpised almost no-one mentions it. Getting mixed vibes..

[–] Neon@lemmy.world -2 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Understandable. Adding it was kind of a knee-jerk reaction after seeing someone unironically refer to hamas as "freedom fighters" and now it stays to show people not everyone shares their opinion on gaza. It can feel like An echo-chamber in here.

By no means do I think Netanyahus modus operandi is appropriate for this century, that's not what I carry this flag for.

[–] IDKWhatUsernametoPutHereLolol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Umm nah please don't do that.

Israel (as in the state, not the civillians living under them) is practially doing the same thing as what Hamas is doing, terrorism. Both are terrible groups. I don't know which one is the worse one, but if someone claims one of them is "freedom fighters", supporting their opposition isn't helping whatever your argument might be.

Lemmy.ml is one instance.

Join smaller instances so no one instance can dominate on many topics.

We should avoid creating monopolies.

[–] Neon@lemmy.world -1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Lemmy.ml has the monopoly on certain topics. Such as signal. The biggest alternatove is on kbin with 130 members (opposed to 1.4k on ml)

Signal is a non-political topic, just make another account to post there.

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org -2 points 1 day ago

That's a right of passage on fedi, kinda like getting banned on new and politics subs on .world for discussions on dead parasite or israli Jews committing genocide in gaza

[–] BedSharkPal@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You missed the beauty though in what happened though. Lemmy isn't worse, one instance was. So here you are still.

[–] Neon@lemmy.world -1 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Except I'm back to spending most of my time on Reddit again because the communities I most care about just so happen to be home on lemmy.ml

Only on mobile I still use lemmy because of the API disaster

[–] Snowpix@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 day ago (2 children)

There's a movement to move most lemmy.ml-specific communities off of that instance and onto other instances, I'd recommend looking around for alternative communities to the ones you used before. A lot of people are tired of ml's shitty moderation policies and overcentralization.

[–] Neon@lemmy.world -1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah, but it just isn't there yet. Look at !signal@lemmy.ml

Iz's a de-facto monopoly and there's nothing we can do.

[–] Snowpix@lemmy.ca 3 points 19 hours ago

Not with that attitude. The more people move, the more likely people will use the newer community and it's seen plenty of success.

[–] Blaze@feddit.org 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

!de_ml@lemmy.blahaj.zone

Edit : it seems like we had the same conversation a week ago: https://lemmy.world/comment/14009221

[–] leftzero@lemmynsfw.com 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)

.ml admins (yeah, the lemmy devs themselves, sadly) and mods are tankies, of course they banned you for that.

Just join a sane, smaller instance; that's the beauty of federation (and defederation of harmful instances like .ml or .world or hexbear).

[–] Neon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

The problem is that for some instances there's no alternative to lemmy.ml

Signal for example has no federated alternative

But I am open to a moderated, defederated, sane inatance if you know any.

[–] leftzero@lemmynsfw.com 4 points 1 day ago (2 children)

LemmyNSFW seems fine to me, if you're OK with downvotes being disabled, and I'm pretty certain .ml defederated it because ooh, porn!; db0 also seems reasonable, and if I'm not mistaken both .ml and .world defederated it because ooh, piracy!.

And most of the smaller ones seem to be fine too.

Or just roll your own, that was always allowed.

[–] p03locke@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

They did not. I can still see lemmy.world posts just fine. It is also still on lemmy.world's linked instances, and lemmy.ml's.

[–] leftzero@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 23 hours ago

Ah, maybe they refederated them, then, or maybe I'm misremembering (though I'm pretty certain there was some drama about this a while back... maybe they just block specific communities..?)

[–] Neon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

contemplates the option of having an account on a porn-specific instance

Tempting Idea...

[–] frostysauce@lemmy.world 4 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, you can't talk shit about ethnic cleansing with an Israeli flag in your username...

[–] Neon@lemmy.world -1 points 12 hours ago

As I said back then:

Because I have an opinion on an Interstate conflict I'm nit allowed to oppose the genocide of uyghurs? Sounds like genocide-apologizing to me

[–] p03locke@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Nevermind, I'll just look at the modlog. You seem to have a bad habit of getting yourself banned.

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 3 points 23 hours ago

Modlog seems pretty clean/inline with what the poster claimed

[–] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works -3 points 1 day ago

You could also add the NATO flag into your name to help maximize controversy.
