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.

This is something that would really frustrate me if I was still on reddit. It feels nice to not care at all.
I've been using the official app a couple times lately (out if curiousity). It's ridiculous how little is left. Almost the enire feed is either advertisements, or algorithm. The plus side is that it is pretty obvious to distinguish them, but that makes that you can just scroll past 20+ posts without stopping. The feeling that gives me, almost always makes me close the app. Hilariously, I think this is exactly the opposite effect of what reddit engineers wanted to achieve with their enshitification.
I sincerely hope it is not their engineers that wanted this.
Somehow I doubt that they listen to their engineers at all regarding policy decisions.
If lemmy wants to succeed, we need to follow suit and remove sorting by all! It’s the only way! /s
I left reddit about the time they introduced /r/popular and I recall the announcement mentioning that they would remove /r/all eventually. It's been a long time, but this was coming.
It does kind of frustrate me that they're messing with people's dopamine receptors, trapping them in reddit for a bit longer
