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 died in June of 2023.
Bot posts, upvotes, comments from 1d accounts quadruppled since I'm very sceptical about the projected stats. It's like the first human users setup a social culture and as time progresses new users see the potentials and become the first "parasites" of a settled community. A bot army is just a tool.
We did.
I was one of them.
I had a reddit account before I had a facebook account, back when digg still actually existed, and reddit was basically just trying to be a better version of digg.
It was good for a while, and now its run its course, corrupted by ... so many different things, insane mods, insane political movements, and of course, money money money.
The internet utopia dreamed of in the 90s has crashed and burned and warped into a dystopian panopticon of hate, misery, greed and lies that a younger and more optimistic me was convinced could only happen in cyberpunk fiction...
' I had dreamed a dream, but now that dream is gone from me. '
it died the moment trump got 1st elected.
