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.

The Reddit default app is so bad these days, they really want you to buy their useless internet badges.

Down with Spez! May he be left with crumbs.

May he always have bed bugs, too.

May his shopping trolley (shopping cart) always have a wheel which keeps sticking and steering him off to the side when he tries to go forwards.

Obligatory: always has been meme

I was off the app for over a year because of the API change. Decided to make a new account and lurked for a while before there was a comment I really wanted to reply to. I wrote out the perfect reply and my phone locked when I looked away for a few seconds. I unlocked the phone and my comment was gone. I went looking in the help menu to see if there was a place to suggest features like auto-save. Nothing. So, I made a new subreddit for reddit feature suggestions and spent like an hour writing a post explaining my experience. I hit post and the app went back to home. My post was gone.

Since then, I've made about a dozen comments in various places. On my old account, I would get dozens or hundreds of upvotes per comment, so it's surprising that regardless of what I say or where, my new account has only 1 upvote on each comment. Almost like my account isn't being seen. Is this what we lost the good reddit apps for?

Sounds like you're shadowbanned.

[–] NineMileTower@lemmy.world 9 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Do what I did and get permanently suspended. I'm happier now

[–] metaStatic@kbin.earth 5 points 5 days ago (1 children)

there are still occasions where I end up on reddit for information and I'm so fucking happy I didn't delete my account because you can still use old reddit if you have an account

Without an account the site is literally unusable

[–] NineMileTower@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

I still search for information I need, I just can't participate. Btw I was banned from a niche subreddit and made a new account 4 years later and one mod found out who I was and it was over.

It’s made on purpose to have the awards button be where the upvote button used to be so your muscle memory makes you spend money.

If you are on Android, use RedReader. It still works with full functionality as before, except that NSFW subs can't be opened. It's available on F Droid as well.

ios RDX for reddit.

Or if on browser, just use Redlib

[–] overdevs@lemmy.world 1 points 17 hours ago

rdx is on Android too and browser too.
