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 don't know what the users said, maybe they deserved to be removed, but it's still ironic

Reminds me of that one time Nazi Furries created their own convention for "Real American free speech non-SJW Furrys", where they invited all the "anti cancel culture" weirdos.

Went well the first year, but then the convention owner cheated on her husband or something, so the anti cancel culture peeps cancelled her. Flopped the second year. They're trying for a third year soon afaik, I wonder how that goes.

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

Haha I had this happen once after I criticized the mods of /r/SteamDeck. It lead to me also criticizing the admins. My comment got tons of upvotes, and tons of supporting responses, and we all got nuked. Then the mods reported me for harassment over it and I got the big boot. Best internet moment of my career tbh.

Honestly I have the feeling there are so many untold stories about subreddit moderators... It's really opaque. If you get banned etc nobody can really see it because it's hidden, so you never have any possibility to see if a ban is justified or not, it's like a secret court.

I wish the moderation history, like bans, comment removals etc were public. It would be hilarious.

And reddit admins explicitly tell moderators they cannot allow criticism of other subreddit moderators, which reinforce this bubble problem. If you get banned in one sub, you LITERALLY cannot talk about it on reddit, it's really insane, it's really shady, that stuff only happens in dictatorships.

Gives very strong "There is no war in Ba Sing Se vibes"

As I guess you speak French, we made a post about it on [email protected] : https://lemmy.world/post/14085006

Honestly I expected to be more upset over the ban, but I'm just like "meh" after 12 years, no less.

Meme sympa, aurais-tu l'original (juste en français)?

small note: my comment was removed by admins as an automated thing, no idea if I was report-bombed or not. I also received a warning.

I sent a plea and it was restored, and the warning removed.
