Lol he’s such a fucking pussy I don’t get it
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.
Surprised my account wasn't banned but warned.
Anyway, deleted that garbage.
Amen doing mine still too with redact. 15 years. I joined them with the digg exodus.
I have several niche interests which are discussed heavily on the respective subreddits but basically don't exist on Lemmy. I use Lemmy far more than Reddit by now but I cannot do without Reddit. I am a lot better at avoiding Meta services.
Because people as a group are dumb. You know what the fascists can do when people stay on reddit instead of moving to lemmy.
Because Reddit killed forums and this is the closest thing we have left.
In addition there are unfortunately a lot of solutions on there. I've uninstalled reddit a long time ago and don't browse/scroll it, but for specific topics and especially IT stuff I sometimes find solutions there. I may find em on stack exchange or any of the other various sites, including company forums, but sometimes Reddit will have the right solution. I'd rather it not since it seems to perform even worse these days, but it's the unfortunate truth
Social Media is designed to be addictive. That said, isn't the user base mostly bots at this point?
Troll farms and A.I. and bots, OH MY! We'll never get to the Emerald City this way.
Wow, the enshitification wave is originating with Elon, I guess.
And yet people post on that shithole with so many great alternatives that aren't owned by one person or centralised.
This is that freedom of speech he keeps talking about right?
THIS is why I finally left Reddit. Happy to be here!
Welcome to the new old web.
Me, too. Welcome! You’ll like it here.
Hey mate! It's a really nice place to hang out. It's quieter, but better quality and I've barely seen nastiness or drama
Only thing I’m missing is more active niche subs, but hey, gotta start somewhere. Blue Sky over Twitter, Lemm.ee over Reddit.
Yep more and more people will defect from reddit. Half the posters there are bots anyway
Amen amen, and an extra holy amen for good measure.
Amen, amen, add some ramen, and season to taste.
Welcome! We're glad to have you! Let us know if you need help getting oriented.
Won’t someone rid me of this meddlesome South African?
Question: What's the difference between a Tesla and an upright vacuum cleaner? Answer: The position of the dirt-bag.
Porsche: FAST . . .Ferrari: FASTER . . . . . .Tesla: FASCIST
They also instituted a site-wide ban against Luigi supporters... Ask me how I know.
I would love to see exactly the elon posts that got banned, because that's when you know you struck gold
I mearly suggested that there should be more stepping on toes, on a post about a news article about Republican toes being stepped on by judges, and they sent me a warning that "I was advocating for violence". Like, no, my sweet summer child, if I was advocating for violence, my rhetoric would be more.... violent.
Edit: Decided right then and there I was done splitting my time between reddit and the fediverse.
I tried to appeal, because sure.. if a community has rules, and I break them, I can own that. But the post had already been "removed by moderator" so I couldn't even see what it said. It wasn't even in my post history. I asked "The offending post has been removed, is there a way to see it so I can address the issue regarding my ban? I'm willing to admit when I'm wrong." I've been banned before, I know how it goes.
Response: "Your appeal has been denied." End of story. Not even a fair chance at appeal. Nothing I would have said would have mattered, because it was pro-Luigi.
It's okay though, Reddit will be the next Twitter/X in a few months. Nothing of value will be lost.
Yeah when I started getting suspended for simply upvoting Luigi comments, I realized it was time to leave.
I deleted my 13 year old high karma account. And now I’m adjusting to being a new Lemmy user.
Did you actually get a message that said "because you upvoted"? I still don't think they track and suspend based on upvotes to something
It's a recent development, but yes they do that now.
I had so much karma.
Too bad I couldn’t cash it out for nickels or something.
I was close to a million karma when they permabanned me after 12 years. I would have reached a million this year. People like us, with years of steady posting and high karma, built Reddit, and suddenly we're all declared troublemakers, and kicked out, for doing what Reddit was created for - having lively discussions about controversial topics.
Kind of a microcosm of what's happening to other demographic groups in America, and will be happening with even more in the future. The administration will declare that any group they don't like are "Terrorists," and willnbe sent to thebEl Salvador torture prison with nonduebprocess at all.
Can we take a moment to note what percentage of pics are of this guy steeping his fingers? It’s too flattering, given the destructive role he’s taken on.
He’s either hopping around dressed like a mall teenager from the 1990s, wielding a chainsaw dressed like a mall teenager from the 1990s, or straight faced with steepled fingers.
What should be posted is him Seig heiling or meme style imagery comparing his plasticine face with Mark Zuckerberg. That’s it.
He also does not know how to wear a hat judging by the photo.
Elon is babying the hair plugs. Hats that press down on hair plugs are contraindicated. He could not, as an example, wear a knit beanie tight across his head.
I guess every way to treat baldness is really inconvenient. I’d rather just give up and shave my head than be forced to take a bunch of meds or wear hats weirdly to keep my fake hair safe. (I’m saying this as someone who has so many bald family members that I think it’s only a matter of time for me)
