Dont mind me just slowly transitioning over to Lemmy
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.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
I regressed back to Reddit for a bit. I'm back for good after I found out they're also suppressing anti consumption movements.
Reddit can keep all the NPCs.
Im here bc the app I used finally broke after the api changes years ago.
I like it but I do not understand the whole instance thing
It’s just like email. It mostly doesnt matter what instance you choose as you can talk with almost any other instance. There are a couple instances that have been defederated from most other instances, but they are few and far between. Anyway, it’s exactly like email.
Think of an "instance" as a server (or servers) where Lemmy is being hosted. So, lemmy.world is hosted by one entity while lemm.ee is being hosted by another. They just have different servers, but they can interact with each other.
Lemmy is what reddit used to be.
They have really unleashed the hounds recently it seems. I wonder how long before they start banning NSFW content.
Getting banned by reddit for posting rather innocuous comment is probably a good thing. Its UI is garbage anyway.
I got myself permabanned for saying even sharks don’t like Russians on a story about a shark attack. On that website since 2008, guess it was a good push in the right direction, it’s been getting shittier.
You must have missed the memo. Russia is fighting against sinful wokeness . Therfor you are in the wrong.
For anyone that still has a reddit account, if you have any good community subreddits, tell them to relocate to Lemmy :)
Suppressed_news is still around.
Might have been your post that brought me to Lemmy, too. Saw lots of folks saying they got warnings for Luigi/other content I am interested in, and decided I am out, too.
Will spend a couple weeks encouraging people in some of my niche communities, and then no more reddit.
After 12 years and over 900K Karma, I got permanently banned for repeating an opinion that I've posted many times over the past decade. Then Trump gets elected, and the exact same opinion gets me a permaban.
Now I'm hearing that they are banning people for UPVOTES! I wondered why Reddit had decided to throw in with the Nazis, and I this week I see in the news that Ohanion wants to buy TikTok. The new owner of TikTok will be personally chosen by HitlerPig, so Zuckerfuck has been kissing up, and now Ohanion wants in on it. HitlerPig will award it to whomever kisses his ass and pays him the most.
14 year old account for me. Mod of a million plus sub. 700k karma. Built fucking subreddits into real communities. Banned over a joke I made for a decade. Reddit is dying and we now have a new federated home.
Welcome aboard, the place is comfy and only really needs user numbers at this point.
ever since trumps first term, thier ban have been come very heavy handed against left leaning comments more so than right wingers, i pointed it out so many times over the years that this was happening. there was suspicion that r/politics was taken over by a right winger, that wanted to seem like both sides, its pretty obviously who was getting banned and what was getting posted.
I'm here because I replied to "let's not give them an inch" with "let's give them 9mm" and was permanently banned from politics, no recourse. That's the most left leaning sub on the website.
When they took API access away I was pissed but I stayed. But taking away my free speech, seriously? They can go fuck themselves.
that sub was, but it was taken over by a right winger that allowed astroturfing against the "left"
China's not going to let tiktok fall out of their control. If it gets sold it will be to someone beholden to them.
Shit, they perma'd me for constantly agitating in non leftist subs... I can't help it.
Don't leave us in suspense - what was the opinion?
I said that the traitors in the White House are lucky that we are such a tolerant country. In many other countries in the world, and even more in the past, on the evening of January 6, 2021, after their Insurrection failed, HitlerPig and all his henchmen would have been dragged out onto the White House lawn, and publicly executed.
I've written that many times, but after the Inauguration, it got me banned.
They like pineapple on pizza.
Shit, that might get you banned here as well... /s
Well, that is an actual war crime.
Reddit doesn't want users participating in the site. They want eyes looking at ads and that's it. Look, don't touch. We've got bots for touching.
Lurkers are more lucrative than posters.
i have adblockers on, so they never get ad revenue anyways.
Reddit currently has a beastiality sub. They don’t allow real images obviously but people post hentai and fish for more. In the comments, they give each other advice/describe their activities.
Reddit doesn’t care.
theres also pedophelia adjacent going in some of the medical subs, minors who were positng about possible skin issues was than DM for more pics, i think they shut that avenue down really quick.
