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:
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.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.
Reddit is removing the Direct Message feature, and all active conversations will be archived so you won't be able to continue ongoing conversations. Reddit also deleted all bad reviews for their app awhile ago. Its rating went from 3.4 to 4.5 stars overnight.
One of the first things Google did when it bought YouTube was to remove direct messaging, don't want people wasting time talking to each other when they should be watching ads.
true but reddit chat is still there
Lmao chat is one of the dumbest features they ever rolled out.
I love how their attitude is always "we made this useless feature, and instead of ditching it were going to get rid of what people preferred and force the hated alternative!"
Once again proving that the Reddit admins absolutely hate the fact that people use Reddit. They should just shit the site down already.
it may surprise you how many people use reddit for personals and porn
Cool. The bots can chat among themselves without any pesky users getting in the way.
How is the Reddit app at a 4.7 on Google's Play store, but all of the relevant reviews that pop up are 1's and 2's?
Google must be ignoring some reviews to calculate the average score.
Whaaa?! Google acting dishonorably and ignoring their own mission to "Do No Harm?" I'm shocked.
Could be because of people (or bots, whatever) rating but not commenting?
I mean the only DMs i ever got was transphobic bullshit because they were afraid of downvotes.
Several of my Reddit accounts had tens of thousands of karma, a couple exceeded 100k. I learned early on to never read any notifications/messages ever. I just navigate back to my recent comments directly and check replies in context, instead of a stream of disjointed messages and trolls being deadshits.
Digg picked the right time for a comeback.
Reddit dude is involved in the new Digg sadly… Oh and they already are big talking AI for it.
Alexis Ohanian, who co-founded Reddit, is not Steve Huffman (Spez/current Reddit CEO). He's done some solid activism and charity work, unlike the piece of shit Spez. The fact it seems he's trying to distance himself from Reddit by trying to revive their former rival is some rich irony.
