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.

MODERATORS
Sadly, they only removed access to new API keys. Existing ones still work, for now.
Why this is "sad" is because Reddit has learned from the past. They won't immediately take drastic changes that will immediately piss off a big chunk of their users. Instead, they'll do it slowly so fewer people will feel the immediate impact. But eventually, this will affect everyone.
And why this sucks for us is because if there's no massive outrage like the one in 2023, there won't be a mass migration to the Fediverse.
Maybe if spez is in the Epstein files...
Then again, do we really want to hang out with redditors that badly?
I sometimes read comments over there for certain niches and even then no we do not.
Lol people still using Reddit... The Internet is fucking cooked.
People still use facebook and that's been bad since 2012 or so.
Since kony
Wait reddit now hosts games? But in a proprietary format? I'm scared but what language do they allow?
Russian.
Likely but not what I meant
I'm surprised they haven't put their language model slop bucket behind a paywall yet. Won't someone please think of the shareholders! /s
