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:
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.
SimilarWeb has just released traffic estimates for June. According to these estimates, Reddit's traffic has seen a 3.36% month-over-month decrease.
For comparison, here's how traffic has changed for other popular social networking websites:

The more I'm learning about Lenny's markdown the more I forget about what's her face
Does it include clicking onto the site through a google search for troubleshooting or something? Or is it registered users? Because I would count as using reddit in that case, even though it was through an Adblock and I didn’t click any further.
It's an exciting development! I have been looking forward to having such an overview available. It will be interesting to follow the progress—I see great potential in Lemmy, but it requires a larger user base to make a significant impact (in my opinion).
So, let's hope that the traffic jumps over here instead - and that they bring along the good posts 🤞🏻
I have just visited reddit for the first time in quite a while , the picture imo is pretty grim for reddit. Dead subs , little actual life , and when you log out the front page is dire. I think that actual content is key here and that is where the crisis for reddit is shown clearly. Talk of the protest not working is just that,talk , in reality reddit has been deeply effected imo
Huh. I'm surprised it's around the same as Facebook. Two additional facts I'd like to know about the other social networks in order to make a comparison:
That's a disappointingly low number. I was honestly fully expecting closer to 30% drop.
I think I would be surprised if it is in the double digits. With that said, I wouldn't expect it to have been in full force in June. Many people kept using it until the apps ran out. But I do think the people that really care is a relatively small group.
What I would love to be able to see is:
-The change in numbers for the official reddit app
-The change in traffic through July
-The change in content creation through July
I honestly expect the numbers to be 5-10% but I doubt we'll ever get reliable numbers for most of it.
So they also lost ranking (I assume to discord that moved up in to 4th place)
Seems like they just updated their mobile site, you no longer get the annoying popup telling you to download their mobile app!
I'm glad to see there are viable alternatives. When the niche subs move, it's game over for reddit.
Let’s keep that trend going
