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.

People are saying Canadians are getting flagged for even saying/upvoting "elbows up" (I am not Canadian)

Trump's attempts at censorship would make Hitler proud

Oh no, someone pushed a button on the internet to support justice.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

Slippery slope.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

You have to at least give them credit for leaving this up in the post - "Due to reddit admins being complete fucking morons"

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

This is new. I have never seen this before. Reminds me of mods of groups banning people just because they are subscribed to other groups that those mods don't like. So much for free speech

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 week ago

Luigi dindu nuffin. Reddit is is big mad normies sided with the american hero and their psyops failed.

Get fucked parasites

So what would happen if the user upvotes something benign and then the OP edits their post to something violent?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 week ago

spez can just edit the comment for them

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago

They dont care.

This is not about being reasonable this is about rooting out dissent when big events happened like a dead CEO recently

I got mine this morning. Coincidentally, I signed up here this morning as well.

Don't anger The Wizard and you'll be fine.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago

Welcome, enjoy it while it's small

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

Logging in is punishable by ban. You're banned! You can contact moderators through /dev/null. But consider that ban disputs are punishable by ban. Being banned is a violation of the rule #38563-a and punishable by ban.

For multiply violations of the rules you are permamently banned!

Good day.

Welcome! A few pointers to help you settle in

Feel free if you have any questions

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

Welcome to Lemmy! It's much, much slower here, but a lot of people (myself included) see that as a plus.

Please don't be discouraged if your niche hobby isn't represented here. I'm not one to talk, but if the community for it doesn't exist, go ahead and create it! 😁

Now I'm starting to think that getting banned from reddit and them not telling me why and instantly denying my appeal was just a test. What a garbage website and moderation.

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 week ago

You have upvoted the incorrect opinion, consider this a warning. If you continue to upvote incorrect opinions, you will be in violation of our Terms of Service and your account will be suspended. Upvotes are to only be given to approved opinions, as determined by our moderation team.

lmao Reddit has become a complete joke.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Why are they even making a show of this? Couldn't they just show you different numbers, they're fuzzed anyway, or shadow ban you, or any of the other ways to make your votes disappear?

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The show is the point. Users are supposed to self-censor out of fear, which is far more effective than any form of automated censorship. Reddit just implement the "chilling effect".

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

That place is a cesspool, I hope they get chilled into leaving. Even if they go to bluesky, get tf out of there.

[–] [email protected] 60 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Wow, they don't even tell you what they decided your "violating actions" were.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 week ago

Turns out Pig Boy is not only a big fan of that Twitter Twat but also of Kafka.

[–] [email protected] 41 points 1 week ago (2 children)

They literally said that they don't want to tell, because it will lead to users gaming the system. 😒

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 week ago

users gaming

Gamers are truly the most oppressed class.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 week ago

Guess I'll die

[–] [email protected] 72 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I’m sorry, we found that you watched a post that was against our content policy for 5 seconds instead of the maximum allowed time of 3 seconds. We will therefore suspend your account, thank you for understanding.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago

I'm sure Orwell didn't really expect telescreens to become a real thing, but we have very literally welcomed surveillance devices into our lives and homes. Now, it's just a matter of who starts actively using them as a monitoring device.
