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 originally joined Reddit in 2006, and became active full time after the Digg migration. My account was legally able to drive. I began using RIF somewhere during that time period, not sure exactly when, but probably over a decade ago at least.
It had been eons since I enjoyed interacting on Reddit as much as I am currently enjoying interacting with all of you on Lemmy. This has been a breath of fresh air, and I won't ever look back given the wholly unethical behavior of Steve Huffman as well as the decimation of third party applications due to the API changes. I joined Reddit when it was in its infancy, and I am happy to be here during the opening era of Lemmy.
I want to see this project become something great, and I intend to do my best to be an active member of this community so that it can thrive. I was never one for posting content on Reddit for some reason, but that is something I would like to change after migrating over here. I think there is useful insight I can provide to niche communities that relate to my work and personal interests, and I will try to do a better job of submitting content to further the goals of those communities when I have the time.
Edit - Since I see some people adding this
Mobile - Connect
Desktop - Alexandrite
