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.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

It take a few week on Lemm.ee IIRC. Most people wait for a bit, if that's really important for you you can have a look at https://lemmy.zip/.
You can export and import your settings from your settings account using the default UI

Dozens of dozens of dozens of dozens of dozens... 112,744 to be inexact...
Lemmy Total Users by Day: 1,352,936 for 3/12/25.
Divided by 12, that's 112,744 and some change... probably a couple of baker's dozens in there....
Looks like ~53k monthly active users, I think that's a better stat, since it doesn't include people making new alts and abandoning their old accounts.
Then that's 4,416 dozen, give or take a baker.
But all in all, I'd say that lemmings are much more active than Redditors - just based on responses to my posts and comments. I've earned 15k karma on this account, far more than any of my vastly older reddit accounts. Take that for what you will, but I've personally found the community here much more active, especially as of late.
Content quality is drastically better too.

Hey fellow redfugees!
Welcome! It's nice and comfy here, if a little less of an infinite content-hose compared to Reddit. You might need to do a little more heavy lifting yourself in terms of posting and commenting, but on the plus side - people actually read what you post, instead of being drowned by a deluge of spam and bots! And discussions are mostly friendly and civil!
I kind of like that we have to choose to participate to make this work. Sharing something might actually be worthwhile. I’ve had my fair share of viral posts in my day, but posting hasn’t been a priority of mine since before the days of Lord Gallowboob.
It’s refreshing to be in an actual community.
I kinda like that it's smaller here in terms of content and users. I left reddit back at the API thing, I'd been on there over ten years and was spending easily an hour or two a day on there. Here, I pop in, check it out, get a similar experience - but I don't get stuck in endless scrolling or stupid arguments. Instead I'm reading more books.

One more sailor on your ship of freedom! I hope I can bring something useful too
Hello!
Welcome and dont forget to tip your local server administrators. Servers are not free.
Keep it away from corporations by donating today. :)
Lemmy and Mastodon are like "PBS" social media.
