Official replacement for Reddit's r/GamerGhazi
Content should be articles, video essays, podcasts about topics relevant to the forum. No memes, single images or tweets/toots/... please!
Community rules:
Be respectful and civil with each other. Don't be a jerk. There is a real human being on the other side of your screen. See also the Blahaj.Zone Community Rules
No bigotry of any kind allowed. Making racist, sexist, trans-/homo-/queerphobic, otherwise demeaning and hateful comments is not ok. Disabilities and mental illnesses are not to be used as insults and should not be part of your comment unless speaking of your own or absolutely relevant.
No gatekeeping and being rude to people who don't agree with you. Leave “gamer” stereotypes out of your comment (e.g. sexless, neck bearded, teenaged, basement-dwelling, etc). Don't compare people to animals, or otherwise deny their humanity. Even if you think someone is the worst human on the planet, do not wish death or harm upon them.
No "justice porn". Posts regarding legal action and similar is allowed, but celebrating someone being harmed is not.
Contrarianism for its own sake is unnecessary and not welcome.
No planning operations, no brigading, no doxxing or similar activities allowed.
Absolutely no defense of GamerGate and other right-wing harassment campaigns, no TERFs and transphobia, racism, dismissing of war crimes and praise of fascists. This includes “JAQing off”, intentionally asking leading questions while pretending to be a neutral party. This also applies to other forms of authoritarianism and authoritarian or criminal actions by liberal or leftist governments.
NSFW threads, such as ones discussing erotic art, pornography and sex work, must be tagged as such.
Moderators can take action even if none of the rules above are broken.

MODERATORS
So when can we expect the mass influx of users to lemmy etc?
Can't come soon enough IMO. Not necessarily because I want Reddit to suffer, but because I want Lemmy to thrive.
But they can't force them to moderate or to not immediately delete every post made.
Yes they can. By replacing the mod teams. Again.
Sure, but that is a really lengthy process. Reddit would really like to avoid that, too. They want the moderators to be good little slaves and nothing more.
Gonna require much more effort to do it, likely won't be considered peaceful or legal protests but it'll still be possible. Events like this offer a solution, a much more ugly and unpleasant one but a solution regardless. Every company has security holes, Reddit is no different. They can only deny the peaceful kind of protest, not the kind that would really hurt them.
Sh.itjust.works shitty automod removed my comments, so I'm reposting them on another account.

Shit just doesn't work 😔
Pretty sure there's only bots and people who aren't leaving as long as they have something to break up the time with now and then.
