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.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Lmao, so decades of child’s shooting up schools, 2a is a-ok!
Resistance to ICE gestappo, 2a banned?
Well it’s on brand for this country at least.
It's Reddit. It's a cesspool run by trash humans.
So yes, you can talk about guns and the 2nd amendment all you want when children are being murdered in school, but if fascists control the government, you gotta stop that, because you're now an "agitator".
Edit: Actually, to be fair, most Reddit users are good enough people to grasp that fascism has come to America and fascism is bad. So calling the site in general a cesspool isn't necessarily accurate. The shitstains are mostly bots and a small percentage of trash humans. The real issue are the trash humans running the site and dictating the rules that have driven us all to Lemmy.
Yeah, corporate advertisers.
Can't speak of violence guns or anything else, lest it upset the VERY kinds of people looking for that "Disney" sensibility the Mayor of Minneapolis refered to last night, after he got asked about dropping the F-bomb in response to the shooting yesterday.
It's squeeky-clean and "sanitized" for your protection, now that it had it's IPO and went mainstream.
Come on, what do we all expect? Everyone here is old enough to know how this all rolls.
It's all got to be puppies and daffodils and fairy tales that keep the shoppers feeling safe and spending.
Capitalism 101: Keep the consumers warm and fuzzy.
Well, I got bad news for you on that front, too.
I know. I'm not saying Lemmy is perfect. But the only censorship I've experienced was on .ml (surprise surprise) and I haven't been banned, not even from an individual sub/instance.
It's got problems but it isn't Reddit levels of trash.
Lemmy allows me to support our Constitutional rights. That alone makes it better than Reddit.
The issue here is that there isn't really a way to ban anyone. No matter how many times they vote or how many AI chat bots they use to keep their accounts active.
