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
 

This is one thing that I'm still scratching my head about. Like, Reddit said no once, and everyone just shrugged and moved on.

I'd understand if most just threw in the towel completely and never wanted to work with Reddit at all, but it seems most would prefer continue to work on their apps.

And since most apps were free or even FOSS, why not say screw that, and make a (perhaps) last update with a field for the user to enter their own key?

Of course only a few users would take advantage of that, but then there's even less reason for Reddit to actually care about that, if they could even detect it at all.

I know some forks may pop up, I'm just wondering about the devs themselves.

A shit ton if people have been fighting hard for the last month. 8000 subs, people have been campaigning and making dedicated web sites to follow what's up and to connect. There's been immense effort put into this from lots of people.

A few hours of work to pull the dev's key out and make the fields editable doesn't seem like much in comparison.

(I'm not demanding anyone to put their time for free to do this or anything. I'm just curious why this was such a no-go from the start while all the other campaigns were on full throttle.)

Ed: Btw look how e.g. Nintendo is hostile to everyone and yet people keep making fan games and whatnot...

Pretty sure 99% of the people here participated in the effort, when Reddit showed they wouldn't budge after the first blackout, we knew the fight was over, why beg to stay over with your abusive partner?
