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.

Yoooo Nintendo should sue. Reddit is publicly traded.

That's a great point. Even if it's used as a verb, it could mean throwing a banana peel behind you while driving.

Everyone named Luigi should sue for discrimination

Nintendo doesn’t want to raise the specter of association with Luigi Mangione. Heck, I bet they'd advocate for this, and would rename Mario's brother if they could.

Nahh deff upvote and then never log back in..

Welcome to the fedi verse, we got our own neo lib acolyte mods on Lemmy.world and you will get some bans from them.

Rest of fedi is a decently safe space for proper discourse.

And remember folks, deny the parasite profit and engagement

Luigi did nothing wrong

The enshittification of Reddit started when they hid new features behind API in order to push their shitty official app. Every next move just made the slippery slope steeper.

Reddit is a group of internet users with the vision of free speech, but directed by shareholder and policy makers.

So glad I ditched Reddit.

The fact that Huffman is scared of being Luigi'd makes me happy.

I knew Reddit was dying after they went public and immediately purged all the mods who didn't fall in line. It was disheartening to see so many users continue to shill for such decisions. Maybe it was a lot of bots, who knows. But watching this site explode in popularity after these new changes is encouraging. Everyone here should do their part to inform people of this place and continue to stay connected. Good luck everyone!

Yep I bailed. Might post one last thing that will definitely get me banned but I saw the “rule” and immediately came to open a new account here.. fuck Reddit.

[–] LeninOnAPrayer@lemm.ee 43 points 4 weeks ago (20 children)

They really expanded their banning too. My ten year old account got banned for telling a guy that was defending the third Nazi salute to "go to hell". Was banned and then had the appeal just confirm the ban.

New account basically uses your Internet footprint to ban any accounts you make. I could get around it but it just is not fucking worth it at that point.

If they want to keep Nazis on their platform and ban the people that tell them to go to hell Reddit will be like 4chan quickly.

Hell, I feel every website is becoming 4chan these days. Twitter and Facebook are cesspools. Fuck reddit.

I just got a 3 day ban. Here I am allowed to say that CEO assassination is basically self defense, right?

Just signed up here. I had my account flagged for upvoting on Reddit. Needless to say I was POed but so far I'm liking it here

That sent me here as well. What a great way for them to advertise for a decentralized information exchange!

Made my first Lemmy account after this bullshit! Took a split second to figure out, but Lemmy seems super rad so far!

Reddit is also banning and warning people for UPVOTING "violent" comments (or what they now consider violent and somehow right wing subs don't get the same censorship applied; or we'd see them bitch about it). It's now a dystopia.

So glad to be here. Reddit is compromised.

[–] bong_hits_for_jesus@lemmy.world 27 points 3 weeks ago

its not the servers or the domain name that makes reddit valuable, its us the people. we are what bring value to their platform. may freedom of speech live on ✊

I'm proud of the active community we've built at https://lemmy.world/c/luigimangione It's a great space to post any Luigi content, that may or may not have a proper place in the larger communities on Lemmy. It's great that former Redditors can come to Lemmy and see a niche community like they are accustomed to having, without fearing censorship like they did on Reddit.

Fuck Reddit. Long live Luigi!

One thing I just noticed about this place is that posts get a lot of engagement, but there aren't a ton of posts. That means there are a lot of lurkers, but not enough posters.

So if you just came here from reddit, start posting!

I eagerly await the Lugia memes to come.

Edit: not a typo, I’m expecting automod evasion.

[–] dumpsterac1d@lemmy.world 30 points 3 weeks ago (10 children)

Quite literally signed up for lemmy just now cause of this. So many of the sites that helped make the internet boring are committing self harm, twitter, fb, and now reddit - the old "decentralization" arguments were kind of boring to me but now I ache for the old internet and gosh darn it if the billionaires are making the best case against themselves.

Just commenting to say I deleted Reddit yesterday in favor of Lemmy! Happy to be here 🥰 #freeluigi

This is the final straw for me. Today, after years of accelerating decline, I deleted my Reddit account and made my Lemmee lurking official. My only regret is abandoning the the good people at Narwhal who always made Reddit better, but never had a chance to save it from its corporate-aspiring overlords. Good-bye!

And with that- I have deleted my Reddit account that I have had for 13 years lol. Fuuuuck that. I don't even care if that gets reversed after Nintendo gets involved. This is ridiculous behavior.

[–] theotherwoman@lemmy.world 30 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Oh no! Look at all the unique unfiltered user content I'm missing out on by leaving reddit for Lemmy!

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 29 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The one thing conservatives where right about: Reddit is a censored hellhole.
