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 installed the official Reddit app and went on it to see what the old place was looking like now. My inbox was filled with spam. The "home feed" shows subs I never subscribed to. There are so many ads. Between the ads and the the extra subs in the feed, it's hard to just scroll. I also noted a lot of spam in some of the subs. Maybe they are subs with no mods? I'm not sure what's up with that.

I just got permabanned for calling Clarence Thomas a cunt because “the c word is sexist hate speech.” You have got to be fucking kidding me, reddit has become such a piece of shit I’m done with it for good.

meanwhile they haven't banned clarence thomas for being an actual cunt.

That's been a standard for banning in r/politics for quite some time. "Cunt" is the mod banhammer trigger word there. Clearly they have never heard of Australia.

Clearly they have never heard of Australia.

They don't have politics in Australia, silly. /s

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

r/Australia is notoriously easy to get a permanent ban for completely arbitrary reasons. the mods there are reddit neckbeard stereotypes on steroids

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Politics? That's a 'murican tradition. That's why r/politics only allows to discuss 'Murica, because there are no politics anywhere else. What? Did c/politics say something?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Yes I was banned there for saying I wouldn’t be sad if trump dies in prison or something like that, banned for advocating death lol

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I was permabanned for harassment for insulting spez during the 3p shit lol

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

What a bunch of fucking losers I can’t wait for their IPO to go down in flames, hopefully aided by some organization investigating and reporting the fact that like 30% of the website is karmafarming bots and chinese scam shills.

Haha no way I got banned for calling RBG a cunt for not retiring when she had the chance!
