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.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

There's also a subnet mask and a Mac address that can identify you. If you can't create an account with a VPN and use that account normally, it's a lost cause.
nice to hear a freemium website based on expressing yourself stores and analyzes your mac and ip adress :>
good riddance
It has the most insane user tracking you can imagine given how hard it is to evade bans. The system will literally flag you as a possible ban evader through your behavior only. So not even having a VPN and a new device can hide your identity completely. You have to act different to throw the system off.
on another forum, its called warming up if you have a new account or bought used account. plus you have anti-detect browsers to shield your fingerprinting, and proxies which cost money.
The subnet mask can't identify anyone, but I guess could be used as part of other metadata like fingerprinting.
How does a service get the subnet mask or MAC of your network/device? It is only exposed to the local network, once the traffic starts it's journey on the routed internet those details are lost.
so if i create an account with a VPN on a separate computer, but then go back to browsing on my main computer without a VPN, they'll eventually connect the dots?
just dont bother man, all these people are being indocrinated. say good riddance and actually grow communities like old helpful reddit over here. if you want to consume short video content, online forum platforms are not it anyway.. and r-word platform is all that anyway. you will notice once you got warm here how infested r-word platform is
