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.

Do we know how many they lost in the first exodus last year?

not enough, but Reddit will blunder eventually so all we have to do is keep Lemmy alive and avoid extremist capture (looking at you lemmy.ml) and Lemmy will win eventually. Unfortunately, that's kinda hard to do as there was voat, prismo and 20 other reddit alternatives that didn't make it.

lemmy has a lot of potential, I didnt like the userbases of others, lemmy is also easy to use and hasn't had any bugs for me, only confusion was choice paralayis, initially went with lemmyworld too and almost uninstalled because of no piracy, found out the rest dont block it

[–] ShinyLazarus@lemmy.world 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That comment is why I'm here now.

Too bad I've blocked reddit at the router as well. Not really.

Modlogs being public by default makes this place more credible

[–] imaqtpie@sh.itjust.works 37 points 1 day ago

Please link this thread too for context and screenshots.

And give old.reddit link, I can't even fucking use that shitty UI they have now, it's so bad.

Thanks

Reddits user policy having you grant us a worldwide, royalty-free, irrevocable, etc. license to modify, adapt, preserve anything you've said as well as your name, username, and likeness is wild.

Selling user content for money training AI, while providing nothing themselves. Mfs killed forums by making reddit seem nice and convenient, then went and ruined it, just working for free, power is its own reward. Ghislaine maxwell being a power reddit user will always be wild to me.

[–] 3dmvr@lemm.ee 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Also insane to me they went public with all of the illegal stuff constantly posted on there and the only moderation being volunteers

[–] 3dmvr@lemm.ee 7 points 1 day ago

How do advertisers feel comfortable with the NSFL posts on reddit being shown next to their ads

So that means they feel threatened by us, that's good news!

[–] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Reddit deleted it? That seems underspecified. Was it actually the company / admins?

[–] 3dmvr@lemm.ee 1 points 10 hours ago

what company its ran by unpaid labor

It's afraid

[–] Blaze@feddit.org 22 points 1 day ago

I just made a post on !fediverse@lemmy.world to discuss how to promote Lemmy on Reddit: https://feddit.org/post/7090265

[–] Die4Ever@programming.dev 33 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (4 children)

I think it was when it was edited to include specific links to Lemmy instances, instead of the join-lemmy.org website

I still see the comment on Spaduf's profile, but it shows as deleted in the post

it seems like copying Spaduf's comment to r/fediverse worked, but in r/technology it got deleted for me too

for me it seems like join-lemmy.org, lemm.ee, and even lemmy.world are safe but some of the others will get your comment deleted

I'm not sure what motivated their selection because lemmy.world is the biggest one so I thought that would be the banned one

[–] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 8 points 1 day ago

I made a similar comment here and it appears to be up from my end: https://old.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/1i6rp3o/decentralized_social_media_is_the_only/m8ho3d6/?context=3

So either the auto mod is targeting one of those few links I did not mention or this was removed manually.

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

Some subs have filters up for certain domains as well. I remember at some point I was trying to share like a youtu.be or goo.gl or something that should've been innocuous because it was the regular corporate shortened domain, but the filter kept deleting the comment.

So they might have something getting triggered on the .xyz or one of the other less common ones

Probably regx

Ttrpg sprouted directly from hatred of Reddit, so that’s understandable. But really, I think they’re just incompetent obstructionists

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 15 points 1 day ago

Didn't they start doing that back when Spez effectively killed 3rd party clients, kicking off migration off his shitty platform?

[–] reksas@sopuli.xyz 10 points 1 day ago

got to be more obscure, make them work for their censorship

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Sure it wasn't a pissy mod? They are control freaks after all.

[–] 3dmvr@lemm.ee 2 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

reddit is run by the free help

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 3 points 19 hours ago

Pretty much. Free labor.

[–] Internetexplorer@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Not surprised
