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.

I came here at the suggestion of others on reddit. I'm still trying to figure out how to find the groups/info that I'm interested in. Looking forward to conversations where comments are unnecessarily removed.

depends on which ones, niche subs on reddit arnt found on lemmy sadly, and some are barely posting. i think by now you can guess which communities tha tpeople have come from, are the ones that were banned in large numbers.

mainly politics, news, reddit, tech,,,etc. i would avoid any conservative subs, or any subs that very biased to one extreme.

We are still pretty small (but growing!) so keep in mind more niche or focused communities may be less active. A common example is posting in a game community (like [email protected]) instead of looking for a specific community. However, if you're dedicated and could post a few times a week you can make your own community and people will come.

The best resource for looking for communities is still Lemmyverse as it tracks all communities (your instance search will only retrieve results from its users subscriptions.

Reddit sure loves to protect U.S. fascists.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 day ago

I deleted my reddit account yesterday. I used Revedit and I realised that most of the comments I had made on there had been removed or hidden without me ever realising...

[–] [email protected] 11 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago) (1 children)

I was blown away by how many completely normal comments (just part of discussions, not even political) have been removed. Pretty sure reddit automod is broken and I'm not sure if reddit devs are even aware of it

I deleted my account yesterday too, I came to Lemmy on the API Exodus and very occasionally checked Reddit but never came around to delete my account until now. Same with my Twitter account.

[–] [email protected] 35 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I just deleted my reddit account. 🤟😎

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 day ago

Same. Too much censorship, too many bots

[–] [email protected] 6 points 20 hours ago

I recently deleted my +10y (cant remember anymore how old it was) old account. I had not logged in with it since the first exodus.

In my time, I started from the old reddit, saw the changes to more modern UI twice. I "collaborated" with the pixel art canvas event. (twice?) (last was fullout among us dithering) And finally saw the full revolt against spez that ended my journey there. (plus the complete enshittification of the reddit app)

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 day ago

Because they are Nazi sympathizers.

Tesla is losing a pile of cash, anyone know how low it needs to go until Musk is going to get a margin call and the whole thing comes crumbling down? He has leveraged himself to the max.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Tesla isn't really losing anything except a bunch of fake market value. It was incredibly overvalued, and now this market correction is sorting itself out.

~$100 was what I've seen claimed, but I dont think anyone but the Saudis really know.

This is so sad to see. I had many years of fun on reddit. I wish it wouldnt have become so commercialized. Money just ruins shit too often

It's become pretty clear that Reddit has chosen to slide into corpo-fascism. Don't be surprised when signs of dissent are squashed, when rebellious subreddits are systematically suppressed until they're removed entirely, when the accounts of those who resist are closed and IP banned. Abandon all hope of free expression there, they've chosen their side and aren't going to entertain the opposition any longer.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 day ago (1 children)

After 12 years, and nearly a million karma, i was permabanned right after HitlerPig was inaugurated, for repeating an opinion that i have stated many times. Nobody ever said a word until HitlerPig was in office, then suddenly I was permabanned. I came over to Lemmy, only to find i wasn't alone.

I suspect the reason is because Ohanion wamts to buy TikTok, and he knows that HitlerPig will be making the decision personally, based on who smooches his ass, follows his orders, and pays the biggest bribe. So as a show of good faith, he abandons Reddit's doctrine of Free Speech.

This is the advantage of decentralized platforms like Lemmy. One billionaire can't screw things up for millions of users. They would have to take over all 600 Instances in many different countries to control it.

So where do I go raise hell with my reddit accounts that have not yet been banned? Automod seems to catch me fast at high pop subs for posts... But maybe the answer is making comments. Idk.

Why does everyone still care so much about what Reddit does?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

i think people were getting permabanned for the slightest indiscretion, or even the current reddit anti-luigi campaign.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

So, again… who cares? It’s Reddit.

I’m not trying to be argumentative at all, I’m genuinely asking why does anyone care that Reddit is turning full-fascist?

Was everyone not aware this was the direction they were going in?

Remember the last exodus? We talked about reddit a lot for a bit.

Now new people are coming and this is a good thing. Let them get it out of their system.

Maybe because it's the reddit thread?
