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.

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.
For what it's worth, the start of my bans were bans from leftist subs for moderate positions. I used up one strike for joking that Trump supporters would voluntarily bury themselves with Trump to guard him in the afterlife ("inciting violence"), then i got simultaneously banned from r/workersstrikeback and r/latestagecapitalism because i said something to the effect of "voting against fascism shouldn't be seen as a loss, and it was a perfectly fine way to spend a tuesday ("neoliberal propaganda"), and then finally i posted on r/unpopularopinion that: "as bad as shit can be sometimes, i still don't think i'd do all that much differently", and then when people commented on it, if it was insulting, i insulted them back ("harassment").
The truth is, organizations just have a way of getting all fucked up, and you rise and retain your position by being fucked up. So, yeah, once something like reddit becomes a hot commodity, run by people with too much to lose, they wind up strangling the thing to death. (I hope that phrase isn't "inciting violence").
Oh, that reminds me of another of my list of repeated violations (12 years without any, then all of that shit in like 6 months).
I used the term "lame duck" in describing what you could reasonably expect from Biden when Israel started going after Biden, and i got a bsn for "ableist language".
Now, whether that one was a false flag?... i mean, it could go either way. I've definitely encountered that type of crap with leftists before as well...
For what it's worth: i'm pretty far left. I probably occupy a similar space as Bernie Sanders (in the sense that he's probably even farther left than he says, but he knows that nobody is going to completely dismantle the whole system just because he hot on a podium and told them to.)
i never actually visited in leftist subs, honestly they arnt very popular there, its mostly subs that can be astroturfed by right wingers or tankies(not in the sense of extreme left) of those subs.
