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.

Lol nothing says we are afraid of the working class like banning subreddits on suppressed news they don’t want us to see. I came here bc I got a warning on my account for liking a comment that said “Luigi”. My alt account got banned for sharing the DOGE email list that is public info. Fuck Reddit. I’m done.

Well... that's just going to be most American sites going forward. That's why ultimately platforms like Lemmy are so important. What a lot of people here in the States don't realize is that this is a war on information.

Always has been my friend. It just took time for the fascists to catch up

[–] rockettaco37@lemmy.world 7 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

A lot of us are figuring that out the hard way

Lemmy is more important to those of us that live in countries without free speech. Like the UK. It's still unreal that I can type that and it's completely true. Although it's more unreal that thanks to government censorship I need a VPN to access this site at all.

Really? I'm accessing this on a UK government PC as we speak

We're not going to have that for too much longer in the US...

I've gotten permabans on multiple subs and also overall bans from reddit admin itself. Various reasons like pro-luigi comments, anti-trump comments, anti-israeli comments, pro-ukraine comments. Reddit is a propaganda platform now.

[–] Theonetheycall1845@lemmy.world 9 points 6 hours ago

Pro Anti 1% ban here.

[–] Stormy1701@lemmy.zip 6 points 5 hours ago

It always was.

[–] Doctor_Satan@lemmy.world 33 points 7 hours ago (4 children)

Yep. I am done with Reddit too. Just deleted my account after this bullshit.

[–] Theonetheycall1845@lemmy.world 9 points 6 hours ago (3 children)

What was the topic about? Sounds like you pissed someone off good 😂

[–] suite403@lemmy.world 6 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Crazy, ironically, I wouldn't consider most dem politicians liberals. They're just not as far right as Republicans.

[–] Andromxda@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 5 hours ago

I once saw a comment by a European explaining American politics to another European.

“Their left is our right, their right is our far right, and their far right are literal flag waving Nazis.”

TBH, getting banned from a sub for something that got downvoted there as well just means you said something in the wrong place to the wrong people. That exact same thing can (and does) happen in Lemmy too.

My only permaban in my 10 year Reddit history is for explaining someone making a reference to the MLP cum jar meme, and in hindsight, I did deserve that, even if someone did specifically ask what it meant.

[–] Doctor_Satan@lemmy.world 7 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

My only permaban on Reddit was making a joke about Nick Fuentes being doxxed. I said "an incel like him should be glad, now the ladies know where to find him if they want to share a cocktail with him", with a gif of a cartoon Molotov. Inciting/glorifying violence. Ok fine, that one was on me. Still funny though.

[–] Theonetheycall1845@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago

You did the right thing my friend.

JFC… looks like Reddit is now only good for old Tech questions.

[–] Tja@programming.dev 3 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

And hobbies. Sadly, even popular sports don't have active communities on lemmy, let alone more obscure activities.

Sub name checks out

[–] thickertoofan@lemm.ee 8 points 5 hours ago

[–] alxmg@slrpnk.net 9 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

I am so close to deleting Reddit too, among all other American services I’ve been canceling since the beginning of the new year.

[–] Jove@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

Do it, you don't actually need them.
