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.

Reddit privacy moderators recently censored this content over a day after it was posted. IMO the reason is suspicious.

(There are no subreddit rules banning "political propaganda" or "character assassination." Nor does this comment appear to rise to either of those accusations: other non-removed comments back up the removed one.)

The point is mostly to contain the inevitable griping to some degree.

If there's a c/ where complaining about reddit is the default, then it's easier to channel such things to that c/ rather than dealing with it constantly in other communities. Can't say how effective it actually is, but that would be the point imo

Honestly, that's an interesting thing to consider and I hadn't done that before. I think my own extremely strong hatred for centralized social media clouds my ability to not have a knee jerk reaction.

Is PTSD from being in a techbro's walled garden a known phenomenon? LOL

i had a moment like, on realization that it's mostly ai-chat bots just fanning flames specifically designed to encapsulate you. shit is insidious...

I didn't say it was funny. I have PTSD, depression and an anxiety disorder. I've been in counseling for these things on and off since 2017.

But to clarify, the knee jerk reaction I referenced comes from my own triggers to certain things. So, that was an actual question; do people experience an instant PTSD-like reaction from their time on corpo social media after they leave it?

[–] Morphite88@thelemmy.club 4 points 1 day ago

I think it would be less like PTSD and more like cult deprogramming
