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'm tryin'. Is there a megathread somewhere where communities and instances introduce themselves and give an elevator pitch?
I've tried sifting through a massive list of instances but they're not often named something that gives away their philosophy and it is a bit tedious to click each and every one. Not to mention then having to locate communities.
But I'm chill and I'll just float around and explore. It's not the worst thing and it feels like early 2000s internet a little bit.
Not a mega thread, but a dedicated community !newcommunities@lemmy.world
I don't think there is, truth is, we are like about 5 seconds in the bing bang, it's going to take a bit of time for things to settle and start having identities, some instances are leaning left, some are right, some are somewhere in between.
Just pick any instance. They largely all federate each other and you can subscribe to communities from any instance. You won't miss out on anything.
A lot of instances are just general-purpose, I think, so any philosophy is kind of come from who's there, which you wouldn't know until you got there. But I find the list of communities on an instance is helpful. If there are more than a page or two, it's probably general-purpose, but a smaller number will probably show the interests of the people already there.
It certainly needs an experimental phase, I was just doing research and checking out instances and whatnot first few days. You might find this tool useful for browsing instances and communities: https://lemmyverse.net/
