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.

I keep having my Reddit account invalidated with wrong password error message. I create a new account with randomly picked user name and random password and get logged in OK. If I log out I can't use that same name and pw to login again, pw error. What's going on with them. It has to be one of the worst sites in the Internet. I want an account so I can follow four subs and have the ability to create permalinks for comments I want to share elsewhere, i.e. the Ukraine sub here, Mastodon and in email with friends. Is it a pointless venture to try and get a stable account?

I don’t think anyone should use reddit anymore, but you could try another browser. If you are not using google chrome on windows, reddit might be broken for you. It’s called poor web design and reddit is the definition of it. Try google chrome in private mode without any extensions enabled. If the login still doesn’t work, you have another problem.

Thanks. I wouldn't get near Google Chrome. I use Waterfox and sometimes Pale Moon and even more rarely Firefox.

As you should 👍

Maybe I should revert to Netscape Navigator. Or use Lynx in Linux.
