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:

YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.

**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.

None of this would be a issue if the lazy fucks would migrate to other platforms like Lemmy etc, right now this app is very limited compared to all the various subreddits, people need to start making replicas of the popular and niche subreddits and make it easier for people to migrate
I would argue that Lemmy.world has even more strict rules than reddit. At least it seems like that sometimes. Certain topics are just deleted.
I think Lemmy is decent for memes and entertainment but I dont think it can serve as a proper discussion site. The moderation wouldnt work. Unpaid moderators cant keep this place open for good discussions because it requires too much effort. But its good for memes. I like Lemmy in that way. Its positive and fun.
How is the moderation landscape any different on Lemmy vs Reddit? Aren't Reddit moderators all unpaid too?
I think so, but people want to do it for a high profile site like reddit. Not so much for Lemmy.
I haven’t encountered this. Which topics?
Probably transphobia tbh. That's a hot button issue across Lemmy, as it should be.
The person you're replying to might be conflating .world with .ml or one of the other authoritarian left instances. On those criticizing any world power other than the US is called out as racism.
Yeah I never seen anything crazy on .world except some mistakes and a few power tripping community mods but nowhere near what reddit is. Maybe OP is thinking of
.mlwhich is an absolute shithole in every sense of the word.Either way that's the entire point of decentralization - you can just hop on a different server.
