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.

If you block Amoxtli then about 90% of conservative posts go away.
I prefer to tag rather than block so I can still call out/down out their BS
Also don't forget that Kaboom guy too!
Kaboom's account is from reddthat where they disabled down votes. I don't think they have any clue how rejected their opinions are. Talk about snowflake.
If I picked an instance without downvotes for my agenda-posting account, I think on some level I'd know there were grumpy clicks headed my way
Thanks for the tip! Checked their post history and promptly blocked them.
Don't forget to block Universal Monk, and Universal Monk, and Universal Monk, and Universal Monk, and Universal Monk.
.ml complaining about being an echo chamber. I didn't realize today was comedy day all around the political spectrum.
Lol, the sub seems to be completely blocked on my instance. Hell yeah
Yeah, but the feed is full of actual articles like "Climate change is real and there's so much proof" and "Clarence Thomas wants to end freedom of the press"
Welcome to Lemmy, shitheads, have some facts.
My instance doesn't block very much, so I made sure to block that one myself.
No need to brigade other people for disagreeing with you. If their views are harmful, their community will get banned by lemmy.world so it's not your problem.
My screenshot is literally of harmful misinformation
LMAO I've been waiting for that to happen for months
It’s hateful bs, but it isn’t harmful. It’s a stupid take on a current talking point from the orange admin. It’s not picking on anyone. Wait for the actually harmful stuff, like misgendering people and racism and simply downvote this particular dumbass comment. (I’m going by the headline / subj, as I’m already exhausted from this week’s bullshit.)
The kind of misinformation I posted a screenshot of (which btw is an actual "article" they're spreading around) is how the groundwork gets laid for the "actually" harmful stuff, so in essence it is harmful because it will enable them to do far more harmful crap later. Or rather allow them to get away with it.
Ok, but it's also easily debunkable, and you can't moderate away stupid. What they posted isn't illegal misinformation according to EU law. I'd rather they do their misinformation in a community here than on Twitter or Truth Social.
