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.

For anyone wondering, you can still use it on mobile by changing the address to old.reddit.com in your mobile browser. So its still accessible on all mobile devices, just not on www.reddit.com.
They said they are going to kill .old soon
Have they actually said it? I've always assumed .old wouldn't be around forever. I'm sort of surprised it's lasted as long as it has.
Spez said that they don't have plans to shut down old.reddit.com anytime soon, so I guess July 31st is the last day.
Reddit really has become as reliable as Russian propaganda. Invert the statement and there's what will happen.
"We're totally not invading a neighboring country."
"We're not going to blow up a dam. Why would we do that?"
"We aren't shutting down old!"
One of these is clearly not like the other, but it's just as bullshit.
A lot of people, myself included, would have left reddit a long time ago if it wasn't for .old. The new design is crippleware. The mobile experience even worse.
That would be like a sumo wrestler climbing on top of the current dumpster fire and taking a giant dump on it to add to the mess.
If they do kill off old.reddit then I think it's toast.
