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 get it. The r/place pictures are comical, nothing better than seeing Spez getting bombed in pixels. But let's be honest, all these posts showing pictures of reddit is just driving revenue to them. Every click is just you putting money in spez's wallet. Can we please move away and stop spamming posts about r/place? It really does not help this community grow and just makes us all collectively look like a petty ex. Can we please move onto some newer or better news? Let's move forwards not backwards.

What do you expect? This community is called Reddit. Should we be talking about Twitter here?

I think what OP is going for is that there are things to discuss about reddit that aren't tri-hourly images of the current status of the canvas and hourly battles between those rallying to put a lemmy ad vs those encouraging disengagement in the responses.

Speaking only for myself: I'm not lost, I subscribed here because I have a vindictive streak that makes me revel in the slow downfall of reddit. Buuuut that doesn't necessarily mean I love the slow time-lapse of their gimmick taking over my entire front page.

I'm not clicking on shit that goes to Reddit, I'm watching a dumpster catch on fire through binoculars. It's legitimately pretty hilarious. We gotta get content somehow, and use said dumpster fire to bring new users over whereever possible.

Huh? The screenshots reduce clicks. I don't need to go to reddit if someone else posted a ss.

Is there a "lost lemmings" community yet? 😄

I still visit Reddit plenty. It's not like I am trying to take it down, although that would be fine with me if it happens.
