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:

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **

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.

Don't care either way. I came because it really seemed like reddit was becoming a terrible place. The arbitrary banning and increasing warnings on restricting content made it time to go. I'm just grateful that lemmy is an alternative that (so far) seems to capture the spirit of original reddit, without all the increasing b.s.
I just hope that I become as comfortable with lemmy as I did with the reddit app. I hated switching from Comet to the reddit app. But, I got used to the reddit app, so I'm sure I will with lemmy. It's nice to have 75% of reddit, but a nice 3rd party app to use again. I'm new and learning!
It's a different vibe. It doesn't come with all sunshine and rainbows but once you find a niche it's easy to settle in.
It’s definitely really hard to replace my lighthearted subs, but I’ll take the actual sane discussion about news and fair moderation over that. Shit is too dire for me to get hung up on memes
