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.

Sounds like something spez would say.

Fuck spez

[–] M_Reimer@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Actually it would be better if more people would start to do so, ignoring that it gets censored. If the whole thing ends with just an empty canvas would be way better than giving up now.

do you think that we can force reddit to shut down the r/place by writing "fuck spez" everywhere?

[–] Stitch0815@feddit.de 13 points 1 year ago

What? Fuck spez

[–] LopensLeftArm@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Fuck spez, and fuck anyone defending spez.

[–] SpunkyBarnes@geddit.social 8 points 1 year ago

Fuck u/spez and the rodent he rode in on.

[–] Eeyore_Syndrome@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lies. Reddit on PlayStore was 3.8 around the API change announcement.

It's 3.0 today.

So spez can eat my 🍆 as well.

[–] Cyyy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

in Germany it was around 3.7 or so and now is 2.7

If you go on Reddit and write "fuck Spez" you're just contributing to their engagement numbers they're using to sell Reddit. You're playing right into their hands.

[–] notapantsday@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't know, I'm sure a potential investor would do a little bit more research than just look at total engagement numbers and that's it.

[–] HughJanus@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Yes but things like MAU will be among the most important ones.

You are not wrong.

I meant at least on the Play Store.

I did spell it fuk to avoid triggering Google police. It's a shame we can't rate 0 stars, or petition for removal. Haha.

[–] DaveX64@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think OP has a point...silence and no traffic would be a better weapon against Spez...he already knows we hate him.

[–] Pretzelise@aussie.zone 5 points 1 year ago

Silence from the small group that hates spez would be filled by the majority that don't care.

I don't use Reddit anymore now that I'm happily on Lemmy, but I would be open to contributing to the vandalism of /r/place since it would make my displeasure visible to the news sites reporting on the event.

People boycotting Reddit completely are a tiny minority compared to the total active userbase of Reddit, so stressing about engagement with the publicly editable canvas is probably a bit excessive, especially since it offers the opportunity to get the word out further
