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.

“fuck u/spez” means absolutely nothing to anyone who isn’t familiar with Reddit, it’s just noise.

“FIRE STEVE HUFFMAN” is a clear, actionable statement that has a clear target and goal and actually has meaning to people who don’t know what Reddit is (like say, a potential shareholder or investor)

Idk where to put this since r/savethirdpartyapps got banned so post this wherever will get noise if you agree

crisis krī′sĭs noun A crucial or decisive point or situation, especially a difficult or unstable situation involving an impending change.

Interesting choice of words there. It's a crisis because Reddit fraudulently and deliberately made it one, and destroyed a lot of people's work created over a lot of years in doing so. Not just devs and their employees, but good mods and most importantly, users.

Every single dishonest point you raise is something addressed during a working relationship, not after. And since when is Reddit legally responsible for what any third party has done with its access to the data from the very beginning (clue: it's not).

3PA devs tried to work with Reddit, were led to believe the relationship was satisfactory, and then had it all pulled out from under them with less than 30 days notice.

There are so many untruths in your reply it's not worth bothering with; it's a list of squirrels. "Squirrel!"

Yeah, no. And of course, you didn't touch on any of the real issues, at all, not even to lie about them, so thank you for that tacit acknowledgement anyway.

In short, “where’s the fettucine?”

Gone. Enjoy your fake MDAUs and your spambots.

I get accused of being a “Powermod” because I do a lot of grunt moderation work on a lot of large, active subreddits – and network with a lot of other moderators who are accused of being “powermods”. Most of what I do is “serious” about moderation, and I’m considered the “knurd” of the group.

LOL. I had a look over in r/ModSupport where you spend a good bit of your time. Among the sea of new scabs who don't know how to sticky a comment, some real gems popped up:

https://teddit.hostux.net/r/ModSupport/comments/1536q1l/reddit_chat_is_not_safe_as_you_think/

Yeah. That's the current state of affairs on Reddit. Good luck with that "grunt work" there, looks like you have it cut out for you, lol.

EDITED to remove Reddit links
