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.

MODERATORS
 

As a PSA, remember that the API changes don't only impact third party apps & accessibility tools, but also your ability to bulk delete or modify your Reddit history. If you intend to delete or modify your previous Reddit posts, be sure to run a tool like Power Delete Suite today before the shut down.

Also remember that as Subreddits went from private to public, there may have been posts and comments you attempted to delete but couldn't until they went public again. So if you ran these tools, you might want to run it again to make sure you got everything.

I hate that this comment got downvoted. It’s a valid thing to worry about and has generated some interesting replies

There is no reason to leave your old comments. Every question that has been asked may be asked again - on Reddit it on another platform. Most questions have been asked and answered elsewhere.

Google provided answers before Reddit and will provide answers after. Reddit was getting paid, though eyeballs, for it answers which were indexed on google. People sure as shit didn’t find answers by searching on Reddit - that site couldn’t find a relevant post if you quoted a thread title verbatim.

Reddit has made a statement that our time and effort is worth nothing, and we should return the favor. If Spez wants his billions by displaying answers, he should grab his keyboard and start answering them himself. If he wants memes he should fire up photoshop. If he wants AITA content he needs only post pictures of himself in the sub day after day. I don’t work work for free, and you shouldn’t either.
