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 love it because the apps are much better.. The regular reddit app has too many notifications, and red reader is too boring, and laggy. I'm using liftoff and it is so much better

Same. If they kept RIF I never would have known how crappy Reddit is and I left and never looked back.

Yeah, when RiF stopped working I just stopped using Reddit. I didn't want their app with their random irrelevant notifications, nft shit and all the rest.

Can't believe how many people went through the same steps. I miss reddit, but post RIF, it was unusable

I use it on occasion on mobile. Oh boy is the UX bad. UI is too cluttered as well but manageable.
The mobile UI before the exodus was fine imo.

I use the full width/height card UI in Sync. The old style isnt my thing and I use(d) lemmy/reddit during lunch break.

Same. I was a dedicated user of Boost for Reddit (before the API Armageddon) and the only reason why I'm using Lemmy now is because they made an app for Lemmy (which I'm currently using).

Boost is such an amazing app and made Reddit tolerable

But Liftoff doesn't seem to be getting updates.

When this happened I went back to Eternity, a fork of Infinity, the app I used for reddit. That's also the beauty of Lemmy, there are lots of third party apps unlike reddit that banned every single one
