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
Why would you delete your reddit posts? I understand that there's a protest and chang in API pricing is unfair and all that stuff, but think of all this people looking for a solution for ther problem
How are they responsible for the API pricing that you have to punish them? At least migrated all of the posts to Lemmy before deleting them, please
Irritating people looking for answers is part of the point of the deletion. They can and will find answers somewhere else, and if they keep finding blanks on Reddit, they will start ignoring Reddit search results. That is what will hurt Reddit, not just having less data to sell through the API. ... and don't worry, everything on Reddit is backed up somewhere else anyway, if you are desperate for a specific post or comment.
Those people can thank reddit... for trying to monetize the content people gave it for free.
Not particularly practical. You can repost all the content but you can't migrate the comments that have the solutions.
Weighing the cons of losing the history vs the cons of Reddit continuing to exploit others content exclusively for their financial benefit... I support anyone who chooses the nuclear option.
I just look for one of the archival sites that has snapshots of entire pages. I used the Wayback Machine last time I needed something.
I hate that this comment got downvoted. It’s a valid thing to worry about and has generated some interesting replies
After reading the comments in that file power delete backed up for me. I did the world a favor.
I don't want reddit to get any traffic from my troubleshooting or solution posts anymore. Sucks for people looking for solutions, but eventually people may learn to ignore reddit posts on google and the like.
I said it on Reddit and I’ll say it here. No one is under any obligation to practice this perceived “selflessness” of leaving their comments for any reason. Nor to act as a replacement for google’s failures.
Who is to say that they even have an answer someone needs? They don’t want their shit fed into AI. It’s their shit to do with as they please.
It’s sad but it’s their prerogative. Reddit don’t care about them and they shouldn’t care about Reddit. Gotta find a dedicated message board with the answers. Like in the days of yore.
