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:

**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.

If by "old" you mean not using idiotic words like "unalive", putting trigger warnings before the word "shit" and claiming to have DID, ADHD, OCD and Autism all unprompted - then I can live with it skewing "old".

spoken like a true geezer

fwiw "unalive" came about to circumvent automatic censorship, It's the young people being tech savvy. Meanwhile, you're over in the corner stewing as the world passes you by.

Don't fall into the perpetual trap of thinking the current crop of young people are the worst thing ever, it'll make your hair fall out

it’ll make your hair fall out

It didn't fall out!!! It migrated to my back!

No that's not what he meant, you just made it up to feel important, much like how young people sometimes fake illnesses to feel special.

you just made it up to feel important

Are you mad? I don't need to make anything up. I AM important. I am a very important.

Unalive is the stupidest word I've heard. I've seen one YouTube video (about true crime) using this word, and I was thinking to myself: does this word mean what I think it does? And apparently it does. I looked at the comments, hoping that someone would point this out (that this word is stupid) apparently no one was saying anything about it and I feel like that I'm the stupid one....

Its just a way to get around being demonetized. Its like a child saying frick because they aren't allowed to curse. The word isn't stupid, YouTube is.

[–] andy_wijaya_med 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I know it is.. But can't you find another existing word? For example: "to deprive of life". Or slay. Or anything. Unalive is... an adjective. Not a verb. Of course the whole censorship is a stupid thing.

Unalive is… an adjective. Not a verb.

Language evolves in stupid directions sometimes.

Do you YouTube?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I actually only speak proto indo European because evolution of language is bad and wrong. If your true crime video said "deprived of life", it would sound even worse. Goofy is better than pretentious. "slay" would probably also get you demonetized because its a well known and more mature synonym of kill. The entire point is to make a new word, so YouTube doesn't have a chance to ban it.
