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.

The Subreddit in question is r/malefashionadvice, for anyone who doesn’t want to click through

[–] EdibleFriend 65 points 1 year ago (2 children)

They keep cracking down on subs like that. It's like they are scared of the reaction to taking over a major sub like videos.

Dragging out the take overs is such a colossal fuck up. If you’re gonna be a piece of shit you announce it, let people be pissed, ignore it, and then crush the dissent when the day comes.

If anything this just shows spez/reddit are completely incompetent, more than anyone already knew. He’s too much of a pussy to pull the trigger and do the shit he very obviously intends to do. A dumbass and a coward. What a combination.

r/videos is back up though. The protest ended up being for nothing.

[–] EdibleFriend 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's 'up'. And text only. You are only allowed to post descriptions of videos.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They’re back up. I just checked, there was a vote and they allow videos again.

[–] EdibleFriend 7 points 1 year ago

....god dammit.

Oh. Well, that's sad. I always thought stuff like that and r/malepolish were rather niche in comparison to like, r/gaming or r/AITA. Which is how I picture "popular." Here's to new blood, at any rate?
