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.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

MODERATORS
They nuked almost all my accounts the other day. I talked a bunch of shit on the direction they are going and missing Aaron's leadership. I walked away and here I am. One account I never log in on and with only 3 posts, perma banned. It was obviously targeted...
I just logged in on my NSFW account and lo and behold it has been permanently banned haha. Literally zero comments on it. It wasn't banned when I deleted my main account after having made comments having a go at reddit and the admins and the current situation, so they're clearly a bit butthurt and retaliated by .....banning my account that never actually does anything other than lurk.....which you can still do while permanently suspended lol. Funny that the ban message says
on an account that has never posted lol
Fucking cunts I tell you, they are slicing (figuratively) their own throats
That message sounds like they've retroactively banned my deleted account too, unless it's just a generic message. People were apparently seeing their deleted comments and accounts get restored so I wonder lol. Restore and then permanently ban you so you can't edit/destroy your comments.
So they look like a more active "community" for the investors. That tracks w/ (fuck) spez is record... That greedy piece of shit.
They did the same to me, I was the top moderator and creator of Animalsbeingderps and Amsterdaments, and had 10-11 years of almost daily content and discussions, I was in general quite outspoken about conservatism and racism on reddit, and the IRL cultures that breed these types of mentalities. I was also pretty active on vaporents which was in nono territory for a while. First all of my alt accounts were permabanned, then the first time I made a comment on lemmy against reddit's actions with this account, my main account was also permabanned. Bloody priceless.
Derps was one of my favorites! I was outspoken on the admin team and racism but to be transparent I am Conservative in a Libertarian scope. You do you, just don't infringe. So we are opposite of the scope both getting massively banned, maybe we have more in common than we think? Still suck to put in that much time and get the raw end.
Will there be a new animalsbeingderps community on lemmy?
Honestly I hadn't even considered it until this moment. But I don't think I have it in me anymore. Though I do hope that it exists at some point. Lemmy could do with more cute animals.
Understandable. Well thanks for putting effort in that community on reddit, it was one of my favorites:)
Animalsbeingderps was a great sub! I knew they were tracking all reddit accounts but to monitor other websites is downright Orwellian.
I worked at the same place as Aaron Swartz, actually. It's also gone to shit. RIP Aaron.
We lost a good man to corp/gov tyranny that day.
I did the same. Except I kept the porn stuff. Cause you know the advertisers love that stuff.
NIIIIICE, monkey wrench in the system! I have alts I don't use to keep my NSFW subs up. I just have to get creative they don't find the connection. It kills me cause none of them are HC, mostly fetish models I to an interest in...
Same, after I said:
I assume they've been browser fingerprinting for a long time since they banned 8+ accounts, including ones I haven't logged in to for like 4 years (I created a new account every time one hits ~10k karma for privacy)
Just found another one perma banned, 1 post Karma 3:1
