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.

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 know how I know boomers are not on Reddit. Because shit like this happens to them and they don't bother fighting it, they just go vote for a MAGA or a socialist and hope to watch the country fight each other on CNN and Fox.
From r/paulmccartney, posted on 3/31:
Thank you, FDT, for making me aware that macca had a reddit account. I won't be following it, but it's intersting to know that it exists.
You know McCartney is British, right? Quite famously so?
You know there are non US citizens who can be boomers and some have even been seen wearing MAGA hats, right?
If you think the same shit isn't happening everywhere else in the world then wtf was Brexit about?
Oh yeah, fascism/vice-signalling definitely becoming more prominent here too, though mostly because the media makes them prominent. They tend not to show the "hope not hate" or "march against racism" rallies. A bit too hopeful
Sadly, socialism-lite is the nearest thing that tends to come up. Like "we can keep capitalism and billionaires, but a bit less" rather than stopping it
