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
"So, we’ve all had a... time on Reddit lately," Go_JasonWaterfalls wrote. "And I’m here to recognize it, acknowledge that our relationship has been tested, and begin the 'now what?' conversation."
If I was part of the organization responsible for making unilateral changes that only benefitted itself, I'd be embarrassed to start a message this way.
"Now that I've slapped you around a little, let's talk about what YOU can do to repair our relationship" is what it sounds like to me.
It's saying a whole lot about the so called leadership team at reddit. This language is infuriating.
They are so full of themselves. They are absolutely not demonstrating leadership capabilities either. This is just some guy trying to push his own agenda instead of listening and understanding. I don't think they are capable of understanding, or they can't hide their contempt for the people doing all the work moderating their site for them for free.
That's corporate talk. That's the kind of talk you'd expect to hear from any higher up executive of any company you can think of, that's knowingly fucking anyone underneath their feet over. Whether they're for profit or non-profit, private or public.
This demeaning, narcissistic, unaccountable and preemptively assuming kind of language that is shitting out from their mouths and through their fingers. And they wonder why we'll hate them for the rest of their lives.
It’s possible this particular admin is not an asshole, but yeah, this whole move is a big pile of hypocritical garbage.
They're not even offering ice cream. Not only does nothing they're offering address complaints, they're not even offering any unrelated things to entice/mollify the mods. Having a conversation isn't a reward.
Right? That’s who I wanted to post this article here. Everything Reddit is saying is just PR spin. I get that it’s their platform, but damn…they rely on the major contributors there to make them valuable.
It’s gross that they are putting the blame on those that cared and trying to backhandedly repair what they lost.
The way I read it they aren't even trying to repair anything. Just manipulate their landed gentry into being their corporate slaves again. With nothing of value offered to bring them back.
