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
I haven't looked at the front page of Reddit since the exodus. I have used it to deshittify Google search results but that's it. I imagine it's absolute garbage by now.
Same. Unfortunately I still need to visit smaller subreddits to get answers on niche topics, but that's my only use for it now. In and out; 10 minute adventure. Not spending all day on the front page like I used to. Any more time than that on the website, and I'll just end up getting into an argument with some Gen Alpha idiot who feels the need to butt in and say something ignorant. 10-15 years ago you'd only see that kind of behavior during summer break. Now /r/SummerReddit is all of reddit.
I hope that one day I can finally abandon that shithole for good.
Even the smaller subreddits on niche topics seem to be dying. I suppose the lost good will (and loss of third party mod tools, or course) caused many of the superusers to leave.

My gosh that Reddit app icon is horrible. It looks like a terrible meme NFT or something. ...Which was probably the aesthetic they were going for, to be clear.
ik reddit has nfts,which makes sense.
Never used any of that clients always used offical New Reddit web client even on mobile. I moved to Lemmy because it's FOSS. That's all ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Makes me 'member these informative graphics on 4chan ~2008 that categorized users into oldfags, newfags and cancer. Anyone else 'member?

reddit was not great after like 2015. It just completely shit the bed in 2023
I found a loop hole in the reddit-verse and am able to use bacon reader like its early 2023. I mourn the day this glitch in the matrix is removed from my devices. Until then, carry on!
rif gang
Relay for Reddit will always be my favorite. It had a nice tablet mode and the "swipe to do everything" interface was nice.
I have yet to find a decent replacement for it. Voyager is alright but I swear that it was designed to maximize unintentional button presses. It's so easy to accidentally go to the community or the user's profile when I just wanted to click on the post. And I can't even count the number of times I accidentally collapsed a comment when I was trying to edit or upvote it instead. This is why the swiping interface was so nice. Made it almost impossible to unintentionally do the wrong action.
I miss Relay so much, but unfortunately the developer decided to play by Reddit's rules and start charging people to use the app. So it's never coming to Lemmy.

Now: RedditIsFucked
Represent. I do miss it sometimes, but it's probably better that I don't spend as much time online.
Reddit made it unusable on mobile again.
I use Firefox + unlock, but naturally it's just slower and less convenient than rif.
I use reddit a lot less now. Practically don't use it on mobile as I noticed.
Oldreddit + Oldlander extension is way more convenient on mobile browser.
Apart from going there through a search engine I've never used Reddit again since they killed the API.
I use reddit for special interests. There are some subreddits which are unmatched sources in terms of expertise. Be it a game I am currently obsessed by or serious job related discussions about the newest embedded tech...
It's sooo hard to get away from games. You've either got Discord which is a shit show, or reddit which is an ad riddled shit show, but at least the comment and discussions are relatively structured.
I miss Apollo. It was just so good.
I still use it to follow the war in Ukraine, but that's it. It can burn once the Russians are defeated.

I miss bacon reader =[
I miss bacon reader too ... sobs
What I used before leaving: copypasta
(A bot allowed to replace all comments with an edit to avoid being farmed by reddit or sold to AI)
I edited all my comments, then deleted all of my comments, then deleted my account and two-factor. Then Reddit restored my account and all it's comments and I can't remove them again cause no two-factor 🙃

For me it's not the app ecosystem. Reddit used to feel like it was a platform run by its community now its very company run and controlled.
