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.

First time I've seen this sitting behind my shitty VPN. If the frontpage /r/normaldayinrussia posts didn't make you raise an eyebrow knowing their denying access to people for running a VPN should at least make you second guess.

Get out now, save yourself.

I stopped using Reddit 7 months ago & haven't missed it a bit.

Same, it's crazy how easy it was to replace. I honestly am surprised it was that easy. Figured it would of been harder. I went back once, for a small community that isn't here. I made one post to ask a question about something and saw all the bullshit that Reddit is doing now. I deleted my account immediately after creating that post and was done. I was on Reddit since 2011. It's dead and gone.

Yup. I had several million karma spread across my various accounts. Nuked all of them, created a single throwaway, and only use that for browsing when random tech issues inevitably point me towards an 8 month old Reddit post.

I don’t miss Reddit. If anything, I have more free time these days. AlienBlue/Apollo used to take up a significant portion of my day.

I dont even log in any more, just keep my old reddit redirect extension on at all times.

Was just looking for video game tribal knowledge. While reddit still has some its getting more and more space there.

It's so funny if they only knew that gamers are big part of their market and contrary to popular belief not all of them are NAZIs.

Helpful gamers with indepth knowledge tend not to be.
