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
I joined Lemmy after the API fiasco in 2023. Was hoping more would follow but they did not. I still maintained an account here and on reddit for a while.
Then, my original reddit account of 12 years got banned for saying mean things about Nazis. Reddit admins really don't like when you are mean to Nazis. I made another account which miraculously lasted for another 13 months before getting whacked for ban evasion.
I continued to scroll on my banned account via Infinity because fuck the official garbage app. Now that reddit has quietly changed API privileges again, no more new accounts can request an API key so my read-only forays there will likely come to an end soon, when my banned accounts key stops working. I'm done with reddit after that. I'm fine with chilling here waiting for others to figure out they're in a cycle of abuse, and making the right choice by leaving reddit in the dust.
lemmy did see a jump when reddit started purging earlier this year, like 10k+ people. im in a forum where people use of and link farming to spam, so most probably went there too.
