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.

MODERATORS
Painting the whole of reddit based on the actions of a single non-admin moderator on a religious subreddit of all things feels dishonest as hell, tbh.
Well, an admin not stepping in also speaks volumes. They were more than happy to step in when we complained about API changes.
Yes, reddit admins are famously shit and famously have the most skewed priorities in history, but that still doesn't make this cherry-picked example a good representation of reddit as a whole.
The post is not trying to explain what reddit is. The post title says "Reddit is now allowing advocacy of Child Marrige because they don't want to be seen as islamophobes".
This is a true statement, since admins not stepping in means they are allowing it. The image is good evidence of that.
Seems to still be up, first comment, just minimized for some reason: https://safereddit.com/r/karachi/comments/1kpfo1j/whats_your_take_on_this/
Oh, I was expecting it to be a recent thing, not from months ago. That's why I didn't see it on their profile.
Reddit deleted my NSFW subreddit for no reason except it was competition for the girls they personally pimp out. They 100% take an active role and could deal wirh this if they wanted to.
to be fair the vast majority of administration on reddit is now automated by bots. If you've ever been admin banned it tells you as much. So the real issue should be what filters/flags have been applied and why would the bot ignore something like this post/mod?
Yeah, I walked away from reddit a couple of years ago now. I've been over there occasionally searching for something in particular and niche community this is definitely not the vibe for most of it.
