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 got a warning for upvoting too much violent content. I know it’s bullshit. I contributed regarding economics but nothing violent.
Done with Reddit.
Same here, but the bots don't even tell you the "wrongthink" post that you upvoted so you have no idea how to avoid upvotes that will flag your account with a warning/ban. It's fucking psychotic on reddit now. Like watching the Titanic sink at this point.
digg could not be coming back at a better time. I honestly hope that it's basically just reddit but with a better UI and not as many shitty rules. Going public ruined that fucking website and I always knew it the moment they started charging an obscene amount of money to use their API
The irony is that reddit ripped off digg's original UI nearly 95% identically. I hope they keep a similar format because the Digg redesign sucked and everyone hopped over to reddit, then reddit made that god-awful new UI that I can't even bother to use at all (you can opt out of the 'new design' in your user preferences/settings) but at this point, reddit is practically useless anymore. They'll probably be censoring any links to digg once it comes back up as people tell other users that there's a reddit alternative.
Never got my wrist slapped. But enforcing votes is beyond the pale.
Dipped my toes into lemmy during the last exodus (2023?) but I'm done posting to reddit forever now.
I can't wait for digg to finally come out, I hope it becomes basically a better, private, version of reddit, but you know, good. Lemmy is good too for now but I'm not exactly a huge fan of the UI, and not enough people are moving over yet. Again, probably cuz the UI is a little hard to figure out the first time.
I almost consider that a feature. Same with the sign up process, it may help keep a lot of bots out.
Delete account wipe your posts and replace with links to lemmy stuff
Use the add on Nuke Reddit History. They banned a few of my old accounts after I used it. They hate it.
Not the whole site but I got banned from World News a month or so ago for making a Luigi related Mario Brothers joke.
Such a joke. I am not even remotely a small time Reddit user either, been there for like 15 years and probably have over a million Karma across 3-4 accounts.
Yep, that’s why I’m here now. If I ever use my Reddit account I just refuse to upvote anything at all
