An anticapitalist tech blog. Embrace the technology that liberates us. Smash that which does not.

Also, if any significant portion of users nuked their comment history it would be trivial for reddit to block the user and undo the edits.

It would be trivial from a procedure standpoint, but not from a social one. It would be really bad reputation for Reddit - "this site doesn't allow you to remove your content from it". Problematic specially in Europe.

No one cares about their reputation.

No one cares about their reputation.

This is blatantly false, as advertisers pulling off from Twitter show. Something similar happened in Reddit a few years ago.

They do care about brand reputation. Don't lie (or worse, assume) that they don't.

Nonsense. What happened with the 3rd party apps thing? Mods were staging strikes, resigning, protesting. Pretty much worst possible case for brand rep.

They just held their ground, users continued, advertisers didn't/ don't care.

Don't labour under the illusion that some kind of people power exists.

For every 1 user that cares about this there are 100s of thousands that just plain don't care.

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.
