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.

...so they got rid of awards in favor of adding arrow shaped awards?
“Supports the creators” makes me think they have a revenue split and they got rid of the old system to prevent people from not knowing the difference
Yeah this also conveniently happens after they made everyone's Reddit Gold invalid. Pretty damn shady if you ask me.
Need influencers if they are going to IPO
Don’t want to lose money by having to split something people bought a year ago
"supports the creators?" like the person who created the comment gets paid? probably not. I've made zillions of witty upvoted comments and I haven't earned a dime. Where does that money go? Into spez's pockets.
Supposedly you can cash these golds out if you get 10 of them, at a rate of $1 per gold, as long as you live in the US. I figure that the left-most gild is equivalent to 1 gold, so Reddit is keeping roughly 70% of the money you pay through this system.
Oh great. More incentives for bots to run rampant and rehash old posts and comments...
Maybe its time to start botting on reddit
The "levels" doesn't even make any sense, a splink of different color?
What a lol.
Yes, but do you see the last one!? It is colorful on the outside and golden on the INSIDE
