Oh yes we do, we want the community here to be like it was in Reddit before the meddling of that greedy, right-wing asshole-in-charge allowed maga to flourish there, and before he fully and officially enshittified the interface.

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.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

MODERATORS
It was always naive to think Lemmy was somehow immune from the bullshit of Reddit culture. It may be immune from a centralized authority that can ruin all instances, but in terms of the culture, it is the same. Whoever thinks differently is just drinking massive amounts of copium solution.
This exactly. The reason people left reddit is because of the actions of the people running the site, not the user base or culture.
I guess the difference here is that there isn't a defined group of people running the side
- admins have some power, but users can switch instances in 2 clicks
- devs have some power, but other compatible platforms exist (https://joinmbin.org/ and https://piefed.social/ for people reading this)
- mods have some power, but modlogs are public, and people will create other communities after powertrips
Fucking yeesh. The problem with Reddit isn't Redditors and mods, it never was. The problem is the Reddit admins and owners. Let people do what they want, it literally doesn't affect you.

Uh...
I got permabanned from commenting on r/insaneparents for "giving medical advice" when I was just sharing my own similar experience and saying that a good psychologist helped me put things in perspective. It was my only rule break and they didn't respond to my messages asking for forgiveness and to be reinstated other than a threat to fully ban me if I kept contacting them... Some mods are shit.
The flaw in this logic: We had memes over on reddit. Why are you posting memes here? If you want to post memes, you should go back to reddit.
Yeah, also Reddit used to be good. So why not make it "like there", but just 7-10 years ago
So you don't like immigration?
