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
Looks like reddit is using the momentum of starting sub bans as an opportunity to ban things that might land them in hot water legally or politically
Damn removing the r34 subreddit really is the end of an era.
its not just anime porn. Multiple body part specific subs have been banned despite being actively moderated. I think it's a poem ban plus any thing that might be a bad look to the New Admin
Yeah thousands of niche porn subs got banned gor being “unmoderated” over the past few years. I think reddit is slowly trying to reduce the amount of porn on the website to appear better as a company.
They have been trying to become the new “Facebook but not for old people” for the last several years. Like they still want to be hip and appear somewhat niche, yet be mainstream enough to pull in users and advertisers and money. Spez seems to think you can still have it both ways. The extremely small (relatively speaking) amount of people who have left for Lemmy understand you can’t have it that way. (THIS SHIT AINT NO BURGER KING DAWG)
Totally worked for tumblr
It's almost like the free speech absolutists only really cared about allowing one specific type of speech.
Reddit's board has been fighting over whether to house porn subs for years now. Spez has been very vocal about how difficult that has been for reddit.
I cry a five gallon bucket of tears for Spez and his difficulties every night before I sleep.
I don’t either but anyone thinking there havent been attempts to axe porn on reddit at the top levels they would be mistaken.
