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.

If this were written by anyone else, it would read as an absolutely sarcastic and ironically self aware lampoon-esque post

Knew before clicking it'd be crypto crap
What the fuck is in the water over at the Reddit HQ, lead?
Research shows that if you train AI on the output of other AI, there happens a "model collapse" where the AI makes more and more errors and distortions.
The same happened with tech bros.

Corporate centralized social media: advertises "decentralization" through crypto People on actual decentralized social media: "That's the stupidest thing I heard in the last 2 days"
Oh what complete fucking energy wasting bullshit that can be handled by a simple db. Just more corporate buzzword bingo from these jackasses in charge.

Sometimes I wonder if the people who work at Reddit have ever heard of Reddit.

I am so glad I made a bet with a friend about reddit being much smaller or dead in 5 years, it just keeps getting better for me.
Is this just a way increasing their perceived worth by making people buy their shitty crypto and locking it into the platform that can only be spent on reddit features?

So, they’re saying they’re going to pay people to post and mod, but in a cryptocurrency whose value isn’t listed here? I’ll bet someone’s already coding a whole bot forum to get all the community points.

Missed the crypto craze a bit late there.
They should put their money where their mouth is - give out shares of their upcoming IPO for Karma. 10000 Karma = 1 share or something like that. If you thought their system was broken before, just you wait!
Called it. It's crypto.
Lol. What a shit system. Apart from it being not as popular, Lemmy is a lot better than Reddit lmao.

Oh! So they know most of the people still on their platforms are gullible doom scrollers they can milk with crypto or whatever monetization scheme they want. They know they're scum and are cool with it.

tl;dr, it's more crypto bullshit and it requires the reddit mobile app.
Adblockers should add reddit.com as a shaddy and unsafe link
It’s a fucking blockchain. I’m fucking done. That’s it. I’m going to put the Reddit app in a folder and pretend it doesn’t exist.

This seems quite silly.
It isn't new, and framing it as though it were seems rather disingenuous.
