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.

Download a completely new browser on a PC. One you have never used before. Don't import any bookmarks or anything, don't log into anything you have ever logged into before, keep it completely sterile
Use a ten minute mail or similar address and create a reddit profile.
Don't link it to any social media accounts or anything
Then do nothing for a few days. When you first use it, don't interact a sub you've been to before, find something completely new. Build a little karma with bullshit stuff
After a week or so, you can reinstall the app on your phone, but you have to have logged out with all old profiles and uninstalled it first
Don't leap right back to doing what you used to do. Give it time before getting back into the subs you want, and make sure you keep doing the random shit so there's no pattern
Over time you can go back to old habits, but never log in with an old account, never link any other platforms or websites, and watch out for people who may recognise you and snitch to the mods
That's a lot of work to use reddit of all places.
It is, but it's something special to my fiancée and I, so it's worth it to me
Is the special thing about it related to your username here, or is it just a funny name? I mean, it could very well make sense if the NSFW lemmy instances don't have a good community for such a hobby!
Well, we certainly enjoy fisting together
We met on reddit. We troll each other mercilessly on the sub where we "met"
Eventually we met in person, the sparks flew and now we're engaged
Lovely!
Or just fuck Reddit. Not worth it. I did something similar, managed to use the account for a couple of weeks, accumulated some karma, all was going great, and then BAM shadowban! All those weeks wasted.
My advice is for those who still want to use it, not you.
If you don't, then that's great for you, feel free to disregard
Or course. Same, my advice is for people to not waste their time, because chances are they will still get shadowbanned, and these steps only make the accounts last a little bit longer.
