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.

I’m here just to say I love y’all. What he’s doing right now is directly affecting me and my job. This support means a lot. Thank you <3

We need to fuck up their system, no matter how. Never surrender.

what exactly is Elon doing right now? I feel like I'm not up to speed

[–] Irelephant@lemm.ee 33 points 2 days ago (2 children)

He is ripping out U.S government parts, laying off workers without any regard to consequence, and fiddling with parts of the government which shouldn't be fiddled with.

[–] Wilco@lemm.ee 23 points 2 days ago

He is also doing all the above while removing Congress approved funds. Congress controls the purse, not Elon Musk who may or may not be the head of DOGE (it varies based on who you ask or if you are under a court order).

ahh right, that

that's what happens when you grant power to a fool I guess ://

Americans didn't grant him power, that's a big part of the problem.

[–] Tja@programming.dev 1 points 1 day ago

Except they did...

[–] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago

my comment wasn't really directed at Americans
