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.

Texans lawmakers are going to push a new law making it illegal to record police and cite this incident, guaranteed.

That was the top comment.

It’s not a question

They can try that and it won't matter because of Turner v Driver. We certainly appreciate the hard work of the Batthousai.

The ones that weren't deleted yet were commenting about what the officer was doing.

I'm going to bet the whole comment thread will be nuked.

It’s adorable that you think the same shit doesn’t happen here. I’d urge you to read the mod logs.

r/news has the worst moderators on reddit by far. Like I seriously suspect they're children.

Was banned for calling out atrocities by Israel. And this was long before October 7th. The way they responded in DM made them sound like I was arguing with a 14-year-old.

[–] SassyRamen 8 points 2 months ago

Yeah, I don't miss dealing with this bullshit.

Mods absolutely made reddit unusable for me. I mainly lurk in the news subreddits and they're all the same. I got perma banned and instantly muted on some news subreddit i don't really recall for saying an article's title was clickbait. I got perma banned on worldnews and news for different instances of criticizing Israel.

I even tried using the platform to do other non politics things, like commenting on those am i wrong type of subreddits and got perma banned for not being supportive. Got banned in about half a dozen, despite never being there, for commenting on other subreddits.

I honestly cannot understand how people use the site without being permabanned nearly everywhere. You don't even need to be combative. They use permaban for literally any minor infringement or disagreement that turns up and then mute you if you try to discuss it. It's so frustrating. Thank goodness for Lemmy. There's a lot of weird propaganda here, but at least you're not permabanned.

Everywhere little by little is becoming like this. Youtube keyword snipes your comment and never tells you anything about it. It's hard to find places to discuss the hard subjects now. Everything is for the advertisers.

I’m guessing comments were to the effect of “they probably had it coming”.

Something in the spirit of

officer-down

Probably

I think it starts with the letter A

Not defending cops here. Did you know that it used to be illegal to help slaves escape slave states? The more you know. 🌈

Anyway, I can't tell if this is a sarcastic comment by you or not so... Uh... Please say sike?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

ACAB is a well-known acronym.
My comment wasn't pro-cop.

[–] RedSeries 8 points 2 months ago

I wildly misunderstood, my bad! ACAB

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

According to unddit they where deleted too quickly

[–] [email protected] -4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

You are going to ignore that this same shit happens right here on lemmy?

EDIT: and just like Reddit, they only downvote and lack the balls to respond.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Of course they lack any balls to respond. Community here is mostly bunch of garbage socialists and communists patting each others backs.
