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.

You can't even post on many main subs like /r/videos. I mean, it will appear that you're posting, but no posts are visible. I'm not sure what's up with those subs, they're very popular so should be getting a new post every minute, but there's new one every 20 minutes or so, so it's safe to assume nearly all are getting removed
there is a ton of shadow banning going on too I think, just completely discouraging for new real users
though they have identified me and my main devices and IP, I have created accounts on unrelated devices in an unrelated location and still been unable to make posts successfully. yes, they make show up to my user logged in, but not to anyone else
No need to guess: if you open the parent comment in an incognito tab, you often won't find your reply under it.
This typically depends on whether the subreddit has external links or links to ‘social media’ banned (where the latter includes YouTube). But also there's apparently a simple slider setting adjusting the severity of automatic moderation, wherein anything that could be remotely construed as even vaguely offensive will get your comment auto-hidden at the higher settings.
