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.

So I've been ban from Reddit for 4 months now and got my first appeal denied. It does say you can appeal within 6 months I don't know if that means if you don't get your account back your basically done or does it mean what ChatGPT thinks it means. That after 6 months I can try another appeal. I really want to get back on Reddit. I mean really it's way more strict than Facebook I think. But I really do miss Reddit like a lot and this would be a relief if I have a second chance.

Does it fucking matter? Take the hint. You can still log into your account and edit comments. Wipe that shit clean then close your account and never look back. Nothing there is worth participating in anymore.

Reddit has a way bigger and open community than Lemmy.

Yeah, and my honest response to that is "too damn bad". Reddit is a dying platform and they will continue to abuse you for profit.

I got banned for reporting obvious spam bots and Reddit never even responded to an appeal. They don't give a flying fuck about any user. Make an alt and run the gauntlet of the automatic ban evasion detection, or never go back again. Those are your options, sucks to suck.

I commented on a post about how shitty misogyny is-- on a sub about shitty misogyny, and the post got brigaded by MRA chuds. So many comments were calling women slurs, grouping women together by saying women are all whores, you name it. Many were upvotes and allowed to stay.

I got permabanned for MY Comment the next day. I tried to appeal and it got denied. I didn't suggest violence or even harm. I didn't drag them. I just didn't say "Not all men."

Reddit bans are incredibly biased and I swear given out by right-wing incels. I'm trying to ween myself from Reddit. Lemmy is good because I'm not endlessly scrolling content. Hopefully the ban actually just gets me closer to being off social media.

I agree left reddit never looked back literally asked a question in a sub and was banned like what it was about the exact product the sub was for.
