That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

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.

Legit question -not tryna start shit/trigger intentionally: has this kind of reddit response ever happened before? Ive been on reddit for the past 10+ years, but as a comfy lurker. I remember "internal" reddit issues when the 3rd party thing was a thing.
(Quotes bc, from my POV as a lurker/casual user, the upset regarding reddit nixing 3rd party was too meta for me to really understand beyond "this is bad for reddit users")
I've gained enough info by casual usage-proxy to move over to lemme. But ngl, im not grasping the magnitude of why "reddit is bad now". I dont disagree, but i couldnt explain on my own to an outsider why i agree with that sentiment.
Obviously, censorship is bad mmmkay - I'm not questioning this. I have a gut feeling that making the switch and getting my global info from the fediverse is a good call. I just can't express why, and am requesting assistance from the community's exp in how I can express that. This seems like as good a topic ad any for a platform to discuss the matter.
I was there for 14 years. I never heard of some shit like that.
Same here man and neither have I
