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.

Idk if you are old enough to remember digg but that’s what Reddit replaced when Digg made some changes to their policies. And so the cycle continues.
The funny part about digg coming back is that their main selling point (absolutely stupid and tone deaf in this environment) is that they're using ai to moderate content so it "helps mods". It's going to crash quickly. Considering AI and making reddit go public are the reasons we hate the site now, it's destined to fail. Unfortunately the future is going to be built upon huge corporations attacking usage of anything but their services and alternatives popping up that people flock to. I fully anticipate bluesky to become ruined within the next few years.
I'm glad something is happening to cause this shift, but causing massive amounts of misery and distrust is not what I thought would spur it on. Good news for those of us who know what life was like before fb and google ate the internet is it's actually really liberating seeing the internet as this wide open place again.
I'm so tired of AI and bots, man. The mainstream internet is run by bots for bots, at this point. Just looking at a YouTube comment section makes me realize 85% (at least) of the comments are political propaganda/disinformation bots and crypto/money scammers.
Right now, you can tell who is a bot or not by AI generated or Pr0n looking profile pics, copy pasta tactics and the age of the accounts (with comment history and how many comments they typed or spammed), but eventually it'll all blend together into a moshpit of bots posing as people, that all "think" and say the exact same thing about every topic imaginable so that the actual human beings reading won't notice the rich are trying to influence them to think a certain way to influence politics. Fk that.
I need alternatives to YouTube, btw, if anyone knows any that aren't supported by Nazis and can tell me, I'd appreciate it a bunch!

I'll look it up, thank you!
its so gross to see"woke" in the comments, when anything remotely showed that the video had "Race swapped, gender swapped" in a show. the show isnt for you lol. just the recent invincible episode, there was indication that one of the "variants" had feelings for the same sex and people had to call it woke and roll thier eyes. these prop/con trolls never use the word virtue signalling , since it doesnt sound as "offensive" as woke.
cycle of enshittification.
