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.

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. **

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.

To be fair, reading and writing feel more like a natural ability I was born with, over a skill I developed over many years. For context: I was reading single words and short phrases at age 3. By 8, I had read my parents entire encyclopedia library. While I can see pictures in my mind's eye, my thoughts are generally visualizations of words themselves. I hope this doesn't come off like a brag or anything... I've always just found it weird because most people I talk to do not experience this.
Yep, definitely a redditor
You're above average. Having a minimum of reading comprehension already qualifies you as a mod. You don't need to know much about a given topic to mod the obvious trolls. But... you're only one person, no matter how fast you read or write, you have a limit, and you shouldn't go above it or you end up halfassing the job, or what users call "power tripping" (not taking context into account, blindly relying on user reports or votes just to get things out of the way, etc.).
There were some interesting discussions about imagination, aphantasia, internal monologue, and different ways of internal perception on Reddit... they're likely gone now (at least for my part).
