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.

Reddit has negative respect towards the small communities, eh. The same ones that used to make that place fun, in contrast with overgrown shitholes like r/[we try to be]funny.
Reddit is only good for massively reposted memes at this point. Any real communities with any semblance of civility are better on Lemmy, in my opinion, thanks to Reddit's policy of shooting themselves in the foot.
Edit: even with memes, I've found Lemmy to be the better option.
I want /r/3dprinting ! The communities on Lemmy are dead

Dead communities or Bot communities. Pick one.
There's a few smaller communities on reddit that I like that don't have a presence here, which is unfortunate. I feel ya.
How open are the mods of those communities to promote the Lemmy alternatives?
I have no idea, but I just assume at this point that even mentioning Lemmy on that site would result in either a ban or a shadowban from Spez's lackeys.
And I want r/forhire. At least something like r/slave labour. As with r/3dprinting, Lemmy alternatives are dead. I was told to look for some alternative at Mastodon but I'm not a microblogging person, feeling much better here.
Especially memes, tbh. You can see the bots more easily when they try for humor, makes the reddit communities for it feel so uncanny.
