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:
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.
Edit: apparently they're posters you can download https://drive.google.com/drive/mobile/folders/1KPaA4jNHcWLFNbjl4M1Q5HxXROnZtYXd
I feel like everyone here either doesn’t like Reddit or has been permanently banned. Like me lmfao
probably the latter, i was permabanned on 5+accs at once, when i was temp banned on an old one. found out reditt was deliberately doing a massive sweep to eliminate as much accounts as possible early FEB.
too risky to even make a new account or even comment on most sub with my only one that is partially flagged. i tested by commented a bunch on a niche sub that isnt monitored heavily by filters or mods.
That's an interesting point. I wonder how many Lemmy users have had nothing to do with Reddit. I can't imagine that many
There are a few. One thing to point out is that Mastadon users can (albeit in a clunky fashion) view and interact with Lemmy communities. I could see someone who is only into microblogging services interacting on a community here when they would have never signed up for reddit.
Just left reddit...getting used to lemm.ee now
i saw .ML and .WORld, WEVE been told to avoid .ml, and world i cant even get registered anyways, and since you can just use account on this one and look world post.
let me tell you how you get removed from lemmy.world
Reddit sure loves to protect U.S. fascists.
all the big media corporations do. so weird. probably a coincidence.
I just deleted my reddit account. 🤟😎
Same. Too much censorship, too many bots
I came here at the suggestion of others on reddit. I'm still trying to figure out how to find the groups/info that I'm interested in. Looking forward to conversations where comments are unnecessarily removed.
depends on which ones, niche subs on reddit arnt found on lemmy sadly, and some are barely posting. i think by now you can guess which communities tha tpeople have come from, are the ones that were banned in large numbers.
mainly politics, news, reddit, tech,,,etc. i would avoid any conservative subs, or any subs that very biased to one extreme.
We are still pretty small (but growing!) so keep in mind more niche or focused communities may be less active. A common example is posting in a game community (like !games@sh.itjust.works) instead of looking for a specific community. However, if you're dedicated and could post a few times a week you can make your own community and people will come.
The best resource for looking for communities is still Lemmyverse as it tracks all communities (your instance search will only retrieve results from its users subscriptions.
I deleted my reddit account yesterday. I used Revedit and I realised that most of the comments I had made on there had been removed or hidden without me ever realising...
I was blown away by how many completely normal comments (just part of discussions, not even political) have been removed. Pretty sure reddit automod is broken and I'm not sure if reddit devs are even aware of it
I deleted my account yesterday too, I came to Lemmy on the API Exodus and very occasionally checked Reddit but never came around to delete my account until now. Same with my Twitter account.
Fuck reddit.
Hell yeah brother.
Hey, how about we leave the needless gendering of everything on reddit maybe? Gentle reminder that not everything needs to be gendered and (especially on Lemmy) there are lots of folks who might be put off in some way by this, because it feels very much (at least to me) like something (particularly white cishet) dudes say to each other and not something that applies to folks of all genders and communities, like "friend" for example. Not trying to imply that you are any of those things (even someone who is okay being called dude, I'm not calling you that, intending to be giving a vibe on the statement without judging you) just that that's what I think of when I see that and I wouldn't necessarily mind if someone said it to me (especially in person; I'm currently masc presenting at the least, not sure yet where I actually land) but thinking of others who might feels like something that happens on Lemmy that differentiates the community at large from reddit. Not saying it's always like that, check my recent comments if you want to see examples of how some folks are def still trolling here, but it's better and I hope we can continue to wear that diversity and respect as a badge of honor sort of.
I recently deleted my +10y (cant remember anymore how old it was) old account. I had not logged in with it since the first exodus.
In my time, I started from the old reddit, saw the changes to more modern UI twice. I "collaborated" with the pixel art canvas event. (twice?) (last was fullout among us dithering) And finally saw the full revolt against spez that ended my journey there. (plus the complete enshittification of the reddit app)
Because they are Nazi sympathizers.
Tesla is losing a pile of cash, anyone know how low it needs to go until Musk is going to get a margin call and the whole thing comes crumbling down? He has leveraged himself to the max.
Tesla isn't really losing anything except a bunch of fake market value. It was incredibly overvalued, and now this market correction is sorting itself out.
~$100 was what I've seen claimed, but I dont think anyone but the Saudis really know.
Perma banned for a mild comment on some post about billionaires.. oh well
Same, the french would've had my back
This is so sad to see. I had many years of fun on reddit. I wish it wouldnt have become so commercialized. Money just ruins shit too often
It's become pretty clear that Reddit has chosen to slide into corpo-fascism. Don't be surprised when signs of dissent are squashed, when rebellious subreddits are systematically suppressed until they're removed entirely, when the accounts of those who resist are closed and IP banned. Abandon all hope of free expression there, they've chosen their side and aren't going to entertain the opposition any longer.
After 12 years, and nearly a million karma, i was permabanned right after HitlerPig was inaugurated, for repeating an opinion that i have stated many times. Nobody ever said a word until HitlerPig was in office, then suddenly I was permabanned. I came over to Lemmy, only to find i wasn't alone.
I suspect the reason is because Ohanion wamts to buy TikTok, and he knows that HitlerPig will be making the decision personally, based on who smooches his ass, follows his orders, and pays the biggest bribe. So as a show of good faith, he abandons Reddit's doctrine of Free Speech.
