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.
Those comments were the WORST. I can’t get an erection. I’m glad there’s no “edit: a word” “I also choose this guy’s dead wife” “I broke both of my arms, but my mom helped out” etc. comments on this side of the fence. Good riddance!
I don't see "both things can be true" or other equally irritating Reddit-coded expressions on Lemmy.
Nice how people don't feel the need to remind you that nuance can exist when they aren't used to talking to bots exclusively.
I think the only ones I kind of miss are the "you mean X, Y is" and the hell in a cell ones.
Shittymorph was so good, and just everywhere, you could never expect it.
My absolute favorite was an exchange where someone told a long rambling story, then there was a reply where someone said something like "man I thought this story was gonna turn out to be a shittymorph post." Then there's another reply where someone agrees and says "yeah I was just waiting for the part where he says the thing about how back in nineteen ninety eight the undertaker threw mankind off hell in a cell and plummeted sixteen feet through an announcers table." and obviously THAT comment was left by shittymorph. Motherfucker just showed up out of nowhere and did the thing without even having to string you along with a story first.
Ah yes, beetlejuicing I believe was the term!
Yeah, I never really hated shittymorph or the various novelty accounts. It was more copycats who killed every joke.
The swamps of degobbah was a great read when it first came out too
Every now and then you'll run into them. I partook in an x/y one a week or two ago
The switcharoos were kinda awesome and the whole linking of them (I’m going in) was pretty fun back in the day. It’s a shame the owners fucked that platform up so thoroughly.
Yeah, those tended to build a sense of community across reddit in a fun way.
I've seen the former on lemmy occasionally
You can't get an erection?
Does that meant his wife is single?
To shreds you say.
Man the broken arms story was wild
Lol, I still tell people happy anniversary and label edits at times, usually so the chronologically train of thought makes sense
And sometimes I think its just nice to have a reason to say I'm glad folks are here, and sharing this space with me 🤷🏻♂️. But I can get why people might find them grating
