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.

Im sure you will find people here that appreciate your art. Welcome to the cool and free, but sometimes clunky, side of the internet.
Thanks! It is kinda hard to navigate but slowly getting there
Its hard to imagine, but back when the first major reddit exodus happened, it was even more clunky. Now everything is mostly stable, federation works properly, image and text formatting is pretty user friendly in the web UI, etc
The only stuff that will always stay unintuitive is linking to communities and posts and users and stuff.
For example when i open this community from my instance, the URL in my browser is https://discuss.tchncs.de/c/reddit@lemmy.world
But the proper way to link it, so it will always open in the instance of the user that clicks it is !reddit@lemmy.world
With posts, comments and users there is no syntax like this i think sadly.
Yes and it lacks a simple explanation. "Insta is pictures and reels" "Twitter is short sentences or images". "Ah well lemmy is a selection of instances that etc etc etc" puts people off
Lemmy is a link aggregator. Thats also what reddit is. Just a bunch of communities with link and image posts that have comment sections. After picking a server the average passive user on a lemmy mobile app will never really be confronted with the federated nature of lemmy again. Its only once you start posting and enganging with communities that you notice they all have weird different urls.
"Lemmy is independent Reddit" has worked well for me
