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 deleted my account and was in read-only mode for since they switched from old design. Now encountered this for first time. Time to abandon my habits

That's the symptom of enshittification I hate the most: killing access for users without account

Out of curiosity, are you in a region that requires age verification for porn/social media? No need to be specific about which one, I'm just curious if they are limiting these checks to where it's required by law or if they are pushing it out more broadly. This "requirement" from social media sites is one that the data mining ones are all too happy to have forced down on them.

Yes, Brazil.

I've seen those age verification checks been thrown around over the last couple of months - BUT -most of them are going that self verification route like Steam does: "if you are not a minor you can't access this, but please go ahead and put a MM//DD//YY that shows us you are not a minor. Ok we believe you, you are all set, enjoy".
