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 am a Reddit refugee aswel. The moderators over there are way too petty. They removed countless posts from me for totally unclear reasons.

[–] b_tr3e@feddit.org 1 points 9 hours ago

I didn't even wait that long. The site has been going noticably shitward for a long time. Powertripping mods with absolutely no sense of sarcasm or (gasp) humor, complete asshole userbase, comments and posts getting more and more idiotic. I still have an account but I don't feel any need to go there anymore. Reddit was a certain day-spoiler, retrospectively.

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 0 points 9 hours ago

I've never known a bigger zealot than a r/athiesm user, nor a bigger power tripper than a Reddit mod.

Reddit is run by Nazi collaborators.

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 63 points 19 hours ago (2 children)

Because Reddit has chosen the wrong side of history.

Just like multiple German companies did when Hitler and his fascists rose to power.

[–] noxypaws@pawb.social 18 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

American companies too, IBM played a role in the holocaust.

[–] Auntievenim@lemmy.world 4 points 12 hours ago

As did Ford and GE, and... something about a business plot?

FYI, bellend is like dickhead.

[–] kevin2107@lemmy.world 4 points 12 hours ago

so Elon is treating the ceo got it

[–] Monzcarro@feddit.uk 55 points 20 hours ago (3 children)

I love all these. But what I particularly love is that there are three really clever ones and the fourth is like, fuck it, let's just call him a bellend.

[–] kameecoding@lemmy.world 14 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

My favorite part about UK English is that a lot of words are an insult, of course you wouldn't know that you donut.

Any politician we find to have done something stupid, regardless what party or country we'll call a bellend, it js means dickhead, also very literally.

[–] noxypaws@pawb.social 16 points 16 hours ago

"white power steering" that's brilliant(ly depressingly accurate)

[–] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 101 points 23 hours ago (6 children)

Because those who appease our new robot overlords will be handsomely rewarded! (Or at least tortured slightly less)

[–] Xanthobilly@lemmy.world 22 points 22 hours ago (7 children)
[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 26 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Turns out the Basilisk was just Rich People.

[–] VeganCheesecake@lemmy.blahaj.zone 15 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

I never got the motivation this "otherwise benevolent superintelligence" would have to behave like this. There seems to be absolutely no benefit whatsoever that could be derived retroactively punishing people for not working on it (hard enough). Whether or not it does is immaterial to the motivation of those who were convinced it might.

Also, focusing on one possible future scenario and completely ordering your life around it seems, like, dumb.

[–] Danquebec@sh.itjust.works 3 points 11 hours ago

Yea. Punishment only make sense in influencing future behavior. Once the AI exist... it already exists...

[–] imPastaSyndrome@lemm.ee 24 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

Info hazard! INFO HAZARD!

SOMEONE DEPLOY CONTAINMENT OR A COUNTERMEME

Gnmghhh

[–] yucandu@lemmy.world 7 points 17 hours ago

For some reason this pixellated mandleblot took me back to 1993

[–] stoy@lemmy.zip 16 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

This is one of the dumbest shit I have ever read.

[–] samus12345@lemm.ee 6 points 16 hours ago

It is also regarded as a simplified, derivative version of Pascal's wager.

Pascal's wager is really dumb, too, so this tracks.

Lemmy.ml admins be like: "We're not so different, you and I."

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 0 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

felt like that site/instance is mostly shills for right wingers. almost anyone have an acct on there or post form there always a right winger doing it.

[–] Hermit_Lailoken@lemmy.world 3 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Is that a Falling Down reference?

[–] Realitaetsverlust@lemmy.zip 4 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

No it's a reference to .ml being an authoritarian shithole. Just as reddit as this point.

[–] avidamoeba@lemmy.ca 0 points 7 hours ago

Authoritarian - yes, nazi sympathizing - no.

[–] SolidShake@lemmy.world 76 points 23 hours ago (19 children)

I wish the US knew how to protest

If you can't post innocuous things like this to reddit, what is even the point of going there? That site went downhill extremely fast. Good, fuck reddit!

I did Nazi that coming.

White power steering is hilarious. Who ever made these is great

[–] Sludgehammer@lemmy.world 30 points 20 hours ago

It'd probably because Huffman/Spez is a Musk wannabe.

[–] GeneralEmergency@lemmy.world 21 points 20 hours ago

I love the juxtaposition between the well thought out slogans and then just calling him a bellend.

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 7 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

The issue I have with this is that they left Trump out.

[–] misteloct@lemmy.world 4 points 16 hours ago

That's the point. I'm sure it pisses off Trump to some degree when we don't focus on him.
