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.

Ah, yes, typical reddit addict having withdrawal syndrome.
Don't look back...
Is it withdrawal symptoms if I'm only curious out of spite?
Same, lol. I gave up reddit as soon as the protest started. Been on 4chan to pass the time, but lemmy has really picked up the last week.
Yes. You have to break away 100%. Cold turkey is a bitch!
Lol I wouldn't really call it a bitch, I haven't been on since they announced their plans. I just want any corporations to burn when possible
Lemmy is my new Reddit addiction. With Lemmy becoming more vibrant I’m missing Reddit less and less, though Lemmy still has a ways to go.
Getting better daily though.
Tbh this is filling that void. Think I checked reddit once since Apollo died
Never again.
Haha.
I find the best way to handle withdrawal is to change your habit. I spent time grabbing a few books, and spent a few days with my Kindle or with Foliate fullscreen on my HDTV.
So before, I'd probably spend time answering r/firefox, looking at r/firefoxcss - now I start with 1/2 hour reading Great Expectations. After reading a chapter, I play the same chapter via audiobook - meanwhile I have a couple of TV/Movie versions queued up to watch after finishing reading.
After that I'd probably get into some DadJokes - I can do that on https://lemmy.world/c/dadjokes
Next up, an hour reading The Midnight Library
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using an URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !dadjokes@lemmy.world
Good bot
Hello!
May I ask why you are listening to the same chapter after reading it? :) Is it to retain the information or just to not miss anything? Do you do the same regardless if you're reading fiction or non-fiction?
They still make books? 😉
Most movies and tv shows are from books, and reading the book is 99.5% better.
Think of talking Bladerunner movie and doing it as a 30 minute short.
I’ll be honest I was having withdraws until I found out about memmy
Stay strong!
Oh I am lol. I just wanted something to browse during work and Memmy does just that
That's how it starts!
As much as I want to, I still gotta browse Reddit to get updates related to my niche.
Excuses, excuses.
i have relapsed for the past several days... mostly because my app (boost) has not yet been shut down.
i have been enjoying my fix, but I it does leave me feeling dirty.
As a fellow booster... You're a whore 😉. Hoping rmayayo really does put together a lemmy/fediverse app.
I'd LAUNCH the Rocket!
There's a registration up on the Play store to download it once it releases, and he did a pretty open announcement on the Boost for Reddit app.
I'd say somethings coming of it, at the very least.
Yeah, I'm in. Supposedly automatically downloading when available.
