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.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Because they are Nazi sympathizers.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 hour ago

Because reddit is pro-nazi dump, of course. That's why we're here, isn't it?

Tesla is losing a pile of cash, anyone know how low it needs to go until Musk is going to get a margin call and the whole thing comes crumbling down? He has leveraged himself to the max.

I deleted my reddit account yesterday. I used Revedit and I realised that most of the comments I had made on there had been removed or hidden without me ever realising...

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 hours ago

I deleted my account yesterday too, I came to Lemmy on the API Exodus and very occasionally checked Reddit but never came around to delete my account until now. Same with my Twitter account.

Perma banned for a mild comment on some post about billionaires.. oh well

This is so sad to see. I had many years of fun on reddit. I wish it wouldnt have become so commercialized. Money just ruins shit too often

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 hours ago

There should be a law that when you go public ipo you have to change your brand name. It ain’t Reddit anymore.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 hours ago

wait, you mean ash cans and unobtainable dollars aren't the thing we should all be aspiring to?

[–] [email protected] 28 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

I just deleted my reddit account. 🤟😎

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 hours ago

Same. Too much censorship, too many bots

[–] [email protected] 39 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

Reddit sure loves to protect U.S. fascists.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

all the big media corporations do. so weird. probably a coincidence.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 hours ago

Just the US ones?

👀

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 hours ago

I started deleting saved posts and comments today - planning to delete my account when that's all done.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

It's become pretty clear that Reddit has chosen to slide into corpo-fascism. Don't be surprised when signs of dissent are squashed, when rebellious subreddits are systematically suppressed until they're removed entirely, when the accounts of those who resist are closed and IP banned. Abandon all hope of free expression there, they've chosen their side and aren't going to entertain the opposition any longer.

This is the advantage of decentralized platforms like Lemmy. One billionaire can't screw things up for millions of users. They would have to take over all 600 Instances in many different countries to control it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 hours ago

And then someone would just make a new instance or platform anyways lol

After 12 years, and nearly a million karma, i was permabanned right after HitlerPig was inaugurated, for repeating an opinion that i have stated many times. Nobody ever said a word until HitlerPig was in office, then suddenly I was permabanned. I came over to Lemmy, only to find i wasn't alone.

I suspect the reason is because Ohanion wamts to buy TikTok, and he knows that HitlerPig will be making the decision personally, based on who smooches his ass, follows his orders, and pays the biggest bribe. So as a show of good faith, he abandons Reddit's doctrine of Free Speech.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Reddit’s doctrine of Free Speech.

lol. this is the company that to this day makes zero mention of Aaron Swartz as a cofounder.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago

Man that is such a painful travesty. I can’t imagine trashing your friend and cofounder into the trash like that after what happened. We will remember Aaron.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 hours ago

no but see corporations are your friends and can be loyal to stuff.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago)

Deleted my Reddit account after more than a decade today.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 8 hours ago

I love the simple brilliance of "Elon Musk is a bellend", nothing more really needs to be said.
