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.

Damn that’s just strange. Reddits explanation still doesn’t really explain what “community points” actually do. I don’t really get what their angle is with this.

Why would they do a 180 (from recent policy) and talk about how subreddits should be semi-independent? And are they really planning on making “community points” based off if you moderate and post, rather than paying for them?

Well, the just dusted off the group of people who could read and do math. Now they have the people who will do what Reddit wants as long as it sounds okay. “These Are People Of Reddit. The Common Clay Of The New West. You Know… Morons”

PR, PR, PR. They have to tell all the little sheep to forget about that noisy kerfuffle and pile of sheared wool down at the end of the paddock. thats all in the past now. Only look forward to the new and shiny there's nothing else to see, move along! The wolf has your best interest at heart!

Monopoly money for services - if Reddit decides the games over money & board goes back in the box. 😐
