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.

I said nothing at all that would be seen as a threat. All I did was share the article. I’m so glad I found this place. Reddit is trash.

I deleted my reddit account and fully moved here. Also giving mastodon a try, though I never got into Twitter.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago

I’m dipping my toes in Lemmy and Mastodon, and they’re both awesome so far. I’ll just let my Reddit account wither away. 🤷🏽‍♀️

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

blueskys sadly closer to old twitter mastodon held off on qts forever, sharkey has the best ui/ux havemt really used it tho, wish miskey wasnt xenophobiv or whaatever

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Bluesky is becoming a Nazi hellhole like Twitter? 😢

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

From my experience, far from it.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Wow yeah nothing violent in sharing that article (which was a good read btw).

I havn't been on reddit since july 2023, and yeah it seems like it's gotten even worse since then.

Welcome tb the the fediverse!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Thanks! I love it here so far. 🤗

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

reporting right wing and russian trolls also gets your banned too most of the time.

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

That is so lame.

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

No don't hurt me!

"He went to jail for Trump, was forgotten by Trump, but still believes in him."

Jesus Lmao

This dude would have burned at Waco given the right set of circumstances

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

A lost cause. And they expect me to feel sorry for them hahahahaHAAAAAHHH.

“It’s like you’re out of jail, but you’re still in jail,” Biggs says, speaking about his feelings after being released. “Now I’m more of a burden on my family. I’m not bringing anything to the table.”

wow almost like he understands what millions of people go through every day because they had drug possession ten years ago and are caught in the parole-recidivism cycle

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

No but those are the REAL criminals, see? He was just being a PATRIOT! /s

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Welcome! Need any help navigating Lemmy and the fediverse?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I’d love to know more about the Fediverse! Particularly an alternative to LinkedIn. What do you think of Friendica?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago (2 children)

The alternative to LinkedIn is not using it because you are not a degenerate.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

I swear LinkedIn is just a massive circle jerk for HR goons.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

That’s for damn sure. I should look for a LinkedIn Lunatics community here. lol

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

I have no experience with either I'm afraid.

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

Anything you have to share about Lemmy or the Fediverse is much appreciated! ☺️

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Best place to find communities your instance may not already know about is this site

(remote communities only federate over once a user subscribes)

Make sure to have both English and Undefined selected in your profile settings (next release should fix this)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Thank you!! Much obliged ☺️

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

There's definitely more I've accumulated over the past couple years but those two come to mind first. There is also a tool that automates the new community federation process here if your admins participate.

Feel free to reach out in the future if there's anything else I could clear up.

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

I think you'd be hard-pressed to find a LinkedIn alternative. It's too business-oriented for anyone to care that it's under corporate control. In some sense, that's the whole point.

My understanding of Friendica is that it's supposed to fill a niche similar to Facebook. I've never used it though.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Thanks for replying! I guess I can trudge through Indeed. LinkedIn makes me sick.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Now they’ve accepted my appeal. 🙄

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Just give up on that shit hole. I was banned for a joke I made for a decade. “Old man is old. Is he dead yet?” Thats what got me banned.

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

I once got a warning for site rule 4 when I told a fetishist she shouldn't be in a subreddit for minors regarding that fetish. Somehow that was suggestion sexual exploitation of minors. I suspect that user reported my comment out of retaliation to try and kick me off reddit. I didn't appeal it because I figured i would just avoid that topic in the future and it was only a warning, not a perm ban or suspension.
