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
I'm starting to give credence to the idea that spez is a scapegoat for the change (but he a worthless piece of shit regardless).
I wonder if Ellen Pao would let us make a meme of her eating popcorn?
The discomboulator is that the changes could have been had without need of a scapegoat.
It took a shocking amount of arrogance and contempt for the builders of that playground (the 'little people' who made this all possible) to so badly foul such a simple thing.
And opening the mouth only to change feet.
Extraordinary failure. One for the history books.
Spez made Spez the scapegoat by making a public spectacle of himself as the new face of corporate greed.
If he hadn't doubled and tripled down on the idea that he could do whatever he wants and people would just take it because they can't live without Reddit then no one would probably be talking about him right now.
I'm sure seeing "fuck spez" plastered everywhere on r/place right now has him weeping all over the giant pile of money he sleeps on
