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.

They ban those who agree too. Just later.

According to the investor page from Reddit, they have 100 million unique users. Kicking a few hundred here and there doesn't have an impact on that number. At that point individual users are worthless to the firm.

Ironic how they refered to their rule #1 "Remember the human", when I got permabanned for litterly nothing.

50 milliion are bots, a large amount of them are probably RU

To me the Bitcoin and crypto subs were a really weird place. Like 1 in 10 are long term investors and the rest are like "lol just wasted my grandparents savings I'm done. And just 20."

The futurism sub was the fucking weirdest, at least for a really popular front-page sub. Every other post in there is some kind of bizarre prayer to the machine god or something. There are literally people in there planning for how they're going to use all their free time and wealth once they gain access to some kind of digital messiah AI that they think is going to emerge sometime in the next several years (or the last several years, they're really loose with predictions) and when it does, it will grant them and everyone else god-like powers to play the stock market and become fabulously wealthy and immortal.

None of that is a joke. When asked about how literally everyone can become wealthy, they usually just pile on you for being "narrow minded" and make references to how a very small number of people back in the 80's doubted the internet was going to be a big deal.

I'm all in for discarding opinions. As long as who post them can argue in a civil maner, show souces and accept objective data.
