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:
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.
The mods at r/popculture pointed it out. And then the screenshot above.
The subreddit drama
Damn I thought reddit would stay save from the new usa censorship. Next step will ban liberal or anti trump posts and communities for sure. Seems like I moved to Lemmy at just the right time.
The fact that people still use reddit is insane to me.
They keep permanently suspending ppl so theyll wind up here, almost like someone working there secretly wants the fediverse to do well and is shifting the population over by permanently banning them (I dont really believe this before ppl argue like im stating a fact)
I've been on lemmy for like a year and
the worst thing that's happened on lemmy is that nicole botspam
meanwhile Reddit has done at least 3 heinous unforgivable things in that time
yeah, just got banned, it seems like today i finally begin my lemmy journey. How well does it hold up for deep subject matter knowledge that i found in some subreddits over the years and how is the best way to tap into that knowledge with lemmy? Does google index them or is their native search better than whatever reddits search was?
got banned for trying to help reddit too. Threatened to punch anybody that upvoted violent content and to knock it off! Being a bootlicker is one thing, but the gaul to be ungrateful to someone trying to help!??
That is a bridge to far and I say "Good day, sir."
Now lemmy gets the opportunity to impress me, I hope it is grateful for the chance.
They have gone full grayface mode. I understand not giving a damn about a few individual users, but now they are on a complete power-trip that will destroy them.
Play a charicter specifically to get downvotes, even ASK or subtly imply you should.
Make a bot to downvote anything you dont explicitly upvote, but make upvote button un-downvote posts.
Who said button must corralate to intent? Dont dislike this post OP, i worked really hard on it!
Time to invite them over?
they ban for upvoting "eat the rich" too.
yet reddit admins never had a problem with thedonalds posters litteraly saying people should be shot and other violent rhetoric for years. the key difference is this time the billionaire class got upset.
I would upvote this post if you didn't include mention of Luigi in the title. The image and the extreme action isn't about Luigi at all. A mod was banned for upvoting an article from The Guardian about Donald Trump. If it were actually about Luigi then that would actually make more sense as a decision from Reddit admins, but it's not. The user was banned for upvoting trustworthy news about Donald Trump.
I mean this is political censorship. Just plain and simple. Well done reddit. And i am against violence. But the thing that touches me the wrong way is the idea that not guilty until proven completely got lost in this case. And dont get me started on the united healthcare topic. Ia this still allowed on reddit or will it get shadow banned?
You think Trump is innocent until proven guilty? Because that's what the post is about. Luigi is only mentioned in the title, in quite poor taste imo
We all know what’s gonna happen next. The Admins will lock out the remaining mod and take it over for being “unmoderated” and install their own puppets like nothing ever happened.
It's not like we don't have mod drama but at least when you're federated, stupid decisions get limited to a single instance and others can simply defederate. Does allow for pretty... erm, interesting views you don't see on Reddit.
Also the modlog is public so you can at least see who was banned for what.
Nah, mods can just lie in the modlog. Verify that shit, don't listen to someone just because they're an authority.
Unless they're a .ml admin. The admins of lemmy.ml are always perfect.

Man goes to the doctor.
He says "Doctor, I am miserable. I have been banned from one of my favourite Lemmy instances for no good reason."
Doctor says "Treatment is simple. db0 runs a community for disputing wrongful bans. Go argue with strangers. That should pick you up."
"But, Doctor..." says the man, "I was banned by db0."
Yes you verify by opening the mod log and looking at the removed comments.
That's too hard for the average Lemmy user. They need a mod to tell them what to think instead of reading comments.
That's the beauty of it.
The drama I prefer is power tripping mods who hate your username, hates that you use acronyms, and hates your server.
The drama I dont want is power tripping developers of Lemmy telling end users (us) what we can/can't post using the software.
Out of the loop somehow, what is (this) Luigi all about?
Luigi Mangioni is going through trial for his murder of the United Healthcare CEO. Lots of people rally behind him as a symbol of fighting against the system and the system is not too pleased about it.
Luigi wouldn't hurt a fly.
His alleged murder.
Thank-you very much. I knew about the shooting but didn't recognise the name.
Again, thank-you very much for your service!
I'm having difficulty deciding whether that was what the US second amendment was intended for, rather than letting their kids shoot each other in school.
It's definitely higher on the list of desirable outcomes than kids shooting each other. Whether it's above or below the neutrality line depends on what day you ask me.
Luigi would be a hero if he were the guy who did it
I hear you. 🤔
My pleasure
Let it burn.
How long till the people still using X, Meta, and Reddit products will start to be featured on [email protected] and other related communities?
