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'm not totally out, there's some gaming subreddits which are directly visited by the devs for feedback unfortunately. There's certain mangas I read and shows I watch too. But other than that, everything else is Lemmy.
I know that sounds really unimpressive, but it's actually a significant reduction. I'll only go for very specific reasons, providing dev feedback or discussing a new chapter/episode. That's a few times a week at best for not much time at all. I don't bother regularly browsing the subs for interesting content anymore.
A substantial part of my activity was commenting on politics and world news, and I've completely cut that out. "General discussion" like that is all on Lemmy now, and it's easily the majority. If I'm wasting time at work, it's probably on Lemmy now.
Same here. 11 years on reddit and most of my commenting was politics and news.
I drastically cut down my subreddit list to just a few niche interest groups. I don't post anymore.
Reddit used to be my community, now it's just a place I glance at while drinking my morning tea.
I've created accounts on both lemmy.world and Mastodon, and am browsing kbin, squabbles, tildes and discuit a couple times a week just to see if they are growing and what the current topics are. (Yes I know having accounts on both lemmy.world and Mastodon is somewhat redundant but I don't want to combine them. They each have different purposes.)
