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.

Yoooo Nintendo should sue. Reddit is publicly traded.

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 106 points 2 days ago (1 children)

That's a great point. Even if it's used as a verb, it could mean throwing a banana peel behind you while driving.

[–] fluxion@lemmy.world 102 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Everyone named Luigi should sue for discrimination

I went straight to a perma commenting on what was going to happen with those inmates being moved despite the judge blocking it. It's not a huge loss since that is the second account perma'd in the last 30 days. And I've been using revanced Reddit so no ads. But they've become pretty insane about what is "hate, or violence"

[–] melpomenesclevage@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

it's about the panopticon; getting you to do the censorship. building a better cop in your head.

letting libs like reddit admins read foucault was like letting silicon valley billionaires read 'snow crash'.

[–] Korrok@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 day ago (2 children)

This is why they are being intentionally vague about what's allowed.

crazy! like this is what rules were always for, or something! but then that's insane; if that were true, the wealthy, the powerful, and their servants, would never be punished for violating them. so i guess it couldn't be that.

The one thing conservatives where right about: Reddit is a censored hellhole.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago

but not according to thier context though, which they means thier racist, bigoted comments are getting deleted, rightfully so.

[–] RedAggroBest@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago (2 children)

The fact that "luigi'd" as a verb has become pretty common slang very quickly, it's not crazy to associate it with violence.

Now we get to the actual matter. Several years ago saying "Someone should shoot that CEO" (which would be the same statement as something like "Hoping that CEO gets luigi'd") would not have gotten you banned. Wishing death upon someone is not the same as actual threats of violence.

I knew Reddit was dying after they went public and immediately purged all the mods who didn't fall in line. It was disheartening to see so many users continue to shill for such decisions. Maybe it was a lot of bots, who knows. But watching this site explode in popularity after these new changes is encouraging. Everyone here should do their part to inform people of this place and continue to stay connected. Good luck everyone!

I still use Reddit probably too much, but I still plan on upvoting anything Luigi related lol. If that gets my account banned then official goodbyes to reddit.

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 36 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I'm proud of the active community we've built at https://lemmy.world/c/luigimangione It's a great space to post any Luigi content, that may or may not have a proper place in the larger communities on Lemmy. It's great that former Redditors can come to Lemmy and see a niche community like they are accustomed to having, without fearing censorship like they did on Reddit.

Fuck Reddit. Long live Luigi!

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago

They're really digging their own grave with this shit. Green mario got a lot of work ahead of him.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago

more or less its going the way of facebook which is the primary right wing propaganda machine, followed by youtube. also reddit does nothing but repost X-itter, and TS posts anyways.

[–] lmmarsano@lemmynsfw.com 9 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (5 children)

Reddit sucks because of the moderation, yet the current zeitgeist continues to be that this extra moderation is some wondrous, beautiful thing that improves everything it touches, and new platforms need more of it. Fuck that & fuck Reddit.

I really can’t wait to see their next earnings call. They were anticipating users would be returning and their numbers would be up by the next one.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

i saw on another thread that thier numbers declined recently, and you guessed it it was due to all the indiscriminate banning they did last month. this really tells us most of thier activity is mostly do to bots, OF, ADVERTISERS, AND both usa and russia/israeli trolls.
