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.

MODERATORS
I regret deletng it a bit too early but I don't regret the deleting itself.
Even tho I spent a week manually deleting comments and posts and then also used a program that allegedly deletes everything on an account, I am still able to google a couple of my older comments. They're no longer attributed to me (it says [deleted] as the name) but the content itself is still visible to anyone ... and I wanted to leave nothing of value on that site. But since the account is deleted now, can no longer manually nuke the leftover comments, which irks me a bit.
I have to admit, I did feel a bit nostalgic at one point after leaving, but just looking at the "front page" of my ex-main-sub for half a minute fixed that pretty quickly. I've legit never seen so many lazy shitposts in that sub at once, and everything that wasn't a lazy shitpost was a post complaining about said shitposts, and the only two posts that were neither a shitpost nor a cmplaint, were super obvious Karma farming bots stealing content from the "top of all time" section. Total dumpster fire.
Long story short, I like it better here.
