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.

Mods found out how much power they actually had when they capitulated as soon as reddit threatened to replace them ~~reddit forced all subreddits open~~ when the API debacle occurred.

FTFY

they gave in so fast to keep their power lol, like bro give up your fulltime job that pays nothing

a handlful of the mods actually own hundreds of subs, like less than 100 owns like 500 subs. they arnt definitely not going to give up that power, they have so many thousands or hundreds of thousands of minions.

Yep, thats when reddit became lame to me initially, they own all the top subs and control the directive, its so against the concept of a community driven forum, they frive the conversation wherever they choose and get better (more abusive) tools every year

wanna bet the political subs, even the conservative ones are owned by the same mods and they are just stoking anger and divisiness for the sake of RU. because i found eerily similarities between how the "left" political subs behave and the mods from the right ones, almost the same thing. how can they not see they allowed right wing propaganda articles into politics sub.

even the banning X link was such a weak protest, how about banning all twitter related posts, because the site gets most of thier engagement from x-based posts.

[–] anas 4 points 3 days ago

That, I disagree with. Doing something is better than doing nothing, banning X links still hurts.
