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.

All it needs is a fuckton of awards next to one of the [removed] comments, so you know that what you missed was worth reading.
Fuck the major subs. I don't miss that arbitrary shit at all. And may I just add, fuck AwkwardtheTurtle in particular: seeing them get eaten by their own antics was just -chef's kiss-
What happened to him? I only know that this person was a (bad) mod on a whole lot of subs.
Wow, it only takes an online petition to get reddit admins to do their job. Very professional company.
Seeing that dick get his comeuppance is an incredibly rare Reddit admin W.
Wow. I've seen then mentioned a few times on here before but never knew the background. I'm a particular fan of them claiming they made john oliver famous through the spam.
The cynic in me absolutely suspectes reddit kept them around just for the traffic they generated. But as soon as the protests started it seems to have been "not like this".
As an aside, I absolutely dig your username :D
Sometimes I'm embarrassed to admit I have NO fucking idea what someone is talking about.
This is not one of those times.
Now just shut down /r/mademesmile . You'd have to go back to Mao's Red Guards to find worse control freaks.
