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
Every time a crypto bro says that users "should be paid for their posts" I think about what a horrible hellscape a platform would be when the main motivation to share on it is financial profit. Look at how many people on Tiktok are slaves to the algorithm and they don't even make money directly from that.
Right? It's already bad enough how it feels like the sole purpose of every blog is to push affiliate links. Every product review I have to wonder if the author for paid for it. Every YouTube video feels like the creator will push whatever scam pays them money.
Actually, on the YouTube video note, Legal Eagle has a great video about how many YouTubers pushed this scam claiming you could "buy an official lord/lady title by purchasing a 1 square foot plot of land in Scotland". Basically a rehash of those star registries from the early 2000s. So many massive YouTube channels promoted them with blatantly false claims. And frankly every time I see a VPN ad (because it feels like pretty much every YouTube channel is sponsored by one or another), I just know they're going to make misleading claims.
