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.

Speedrunning a permaban on my 15 year old account. How many days do you think it will take?
Now I feel challenged to do the same and have my inactive account banned.
By this logic is the platform its self not breaking the rules by allowing a forum for the conversation to take place?
Getting band for something like this is like the equivalent of seeing a graffiti artist painting something on a public wall, smiling or nodding in approval, and getting a ticket handed to you around the corner for "participating".
If they make the rules they can't break them. Just like how our felon president walks completely free.
I overwrote all my comments with the following today :
Leopard Urinating In Geocached Inventory
I'm not petty at all 😅
Can you or somebody else with a Reddit account post a photo of Woody Guthrie to r/pics and/or some major history subreddit and title it “Woody Guthrie and his iconic guitar” but use the Reddit alien logo as a censor over the “This machine kills fascists” written on his guitar?
We all should crowd source buying Reddit accounts and just spam the fuck out of Reddit with Join Lemmy posters lmao
Or just stop posting there and let them rot.

Took less than 1 for me, but it was only a 10 year old account
I thought that Comedy was legal again?
So much for free speech!

Be sure to delete your old content. They did the warning: 3 day suspension:perma-ban combo on me (all in one day), so I couldn't delete mine.
HELL YES COMRADE, FIGHT THE POWER
fr though, this is such a badass way to get banned. don't even reply to them - just keep doing the thing, post, and watch as every pathetic attempt at intimidation gets hundreds of defiant upvotes here.

I deleted my 11 year old Reddit account a couple days ago after being banned for quoting The Sopranos. On r/movies. As a response to another Sopranos quote.
For most of those 11 years I had no problems then just in the last month I was banned sitewide twice (for threatening behavior, I was venting about fascists and used violent rhetoric I guess, mind you this was on a repost of that famous video of a Nazi getting punched), given this same warning you got about upvoting things they didn’t like, permabanned from r/movies (again for the same quote), I just reached my limit. Reddit was great for me for a long time but I am better off without it. I was on it too much anyways!
