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.

The thing that bothered me about that statement was the way he phrased it, that "[reddit will] continue to be profit-driven until profits arrive" - as if the arrival of profits is inevitable and no one needs to do anything to ensure their safe journey.
So he thought he could just kinda coast along, spending massive amounts of resources on various combinations of reddit community points and reddit NFTs and personalizable snoovatars and RPAN and glitchy video players and cryptocurrency and April Fool's programs and a shitty app and suddenly deciding to have reddit natively host images and videos that massively increase both storage and transfer requirements and footing the bill for multiple very rich AI companies to suck up all of reddit's data, and no one would notice or care, because the arrival of profits is inevitable, they're just a little late ....
That's a good point. There's a big scoop of entitlement there. Douchebags all the way down.
