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
 

This includes some porn subreddits as well as subreddits like /r/Drugs. Apparently due to being "unmoderated", but some were not. What are your thoughts?

Edit: apparently also subreddits like /r/transgender_surgeries are banned too. Definitely feels politically motivated. Edit 2: seems like at least some (?) bans are being undone, like the above mentioned ones.

I guess they had to make more room on their servers for bots and morons.

Well, their loss. I was in the top 1% of reddit karma for 2022. Think of how much engagement is being lost by me simply not being there. And engagement is what drives their platforms metrics.

It always seemed fishy that they offered to let me buy the innitial stock options pre-launch, at $30 per share. But at the time I was dealing with cancer, and had $0 income. So I had to decline. A few after the IPO launches I'm suddenly banned by an automod, with all repeals also being done by an auto mod that claims it was a human the reviewed the appeal. It clearly wasn't.

Weird; very similar story to mine.

The auto ban? The stocks? Or the cancer?

.......or all of it?

Ah jeeze I was walking my dog and missed the cancer part. Sorry to hear you had to go through that and I hope it's gone for good.

Everything else though, spot on.

Well now we need to see pictures of your dog! Hopefully you got him some of those dog boots so his feet aren't cold in the snow.
