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.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

I'm a grizzled Digg and Reddit veteran, and I'm loving my first experience of Lemmy. I'm enjoying the feeling of this new, righteous community impulse, very much like the one I felt during my re-commitment away from Digg (which was then rapidly turning into a shithole) to Reddit. This feels right.
Let's hope it feels right for longer this time.
I'm already having comments removed by mods left and right...
I'm afraid it's just a nice glossy sheen on the outside, beckoning you with promises of greener grass, but as soon as you start using Lemmy a bit, you'll discover that it is as suppressive and coercive as Reddit itself.
I thought this was "it", so to speak, but I'm afraid we will never have "it" again.
This was a very short and disappointing experience and I will make sure to let other people know.
Aaaandd... they're gone.
That didn't take long.
