Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.
7. No duplicate posts.
If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners.
The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body

It's total BS but it's not like the previous administration wasn't doing the same thing to a lesser degree. It's documented. It's one of 100 reasons I left Reddit 1 1/2 yrs ago. Propaganda and content manipulation sucks no matter who is pulling the strings. It goes way farther back too.

What is documented and could you provide a link? I don't think I'm understanding what you're saying.

Another solid reason to abandon Reddit.
This is why we need more competitors and especially federated platforms like this
And that's how I finally made an account here
same here.
Welcome! I came over during the api shutdown, I mained lemmy for a year, waffled back and forth the last few months. Reddit is such garbage, I dont even recognize it anymore. Its just those few niche subs that got me back but its not worth it.

Imagine being literally the richest man on earth and using your influence to delete mean comments that people wrote about you on the internet.
It's not about money, it's about power and control.
Damn straight. I always wanted to do that, man. And I think if I were a millionaire I could hook that up, too; 'cause ~~chicks~~ bros dig dudes with money.

Last time I signed up for Reddit it asked me to pick some of my top interests. One of the options was Elon Musk.

One thing Musk knows how to do well is run and moderate a social media platform.
Oh wait. Stop. Reverse that.

Reddit loves nazis. Say anything bad about Musk and you will be banned.
Obviously?
Spez has always been a alt-right coward.
I am not convinced that the image I recently saw of an extraordinarily strangely shaped human actually WAS Spez, but if it is, he needs to get some plastic surgery so he doesn't frighten children.
