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.

Imma be honest, the only thing I use reddit for is the porn. Things are starting to pick up over here a bit, but for a while it was almost nothing.

Basically what I'm saying is that I don't really care what happens to Reddit anymore. I left with the exodus about a year ago and never looked back (except for the porn).

Unfortunately that "picking up" here looks to mostly be a bot that is grabbing reddit posts so it's still mostly reddit. There really aren't that many people on Lemmy so I wouldn't expect to see much of that stuff made specifically to post here.

I believe it will happen. In only 1 year, this place went from ghost town to 30+ comments on most posts. Give it a few more years of people spreading the word and reddit continuing to make people go elsewhere, and it will almost be the same.

I have that bot blocked. Those posts have little value here since no one seems to comment on them.

Yeah, old.reddit is good for porn. Otherwise new reddit wants you to use the app and login for porn. That's weird as fuck. Don't track what I'm baitin' to.

I'm curious, never used reddit for porn. Why would you use it for porn? Just go on other websites dedicated to porn.

There's a lot more amateur content. Places like r/gonewild have a massive amount of daily posts. Plus there's a subreddit for pretty much every fetish you could have with communities built around them. It's an entirely different vibe than just going to Pornhub and picking videos. And if you're into things that are drawn, reddit is overflowing with that kind of content.

More sorted cosplay/drawn content

I use it for r/sysadmin and niche/hobby stuff still but am pretty happy that the fediverse is here: It's only going to get better as time goes on at this point.
