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.

Same thing happened on my old account, no content after blocked everything that annoys me. Don't want to hear about how much you hate cars in every single thread, it's boring
Other problem is no matter what you post it gets downvoted, and that's why when I get access to reddit again I'll bail on lemmy because there's no chance of it growing. This is like leftist 4chan and it's tiresome to post here; never going to get new people this way
Honestly you hit the nail on the head with the "leftist 4chan" bit. I'm not someone who chases up votes or anything, but I do like when I see my comments resonate with other people and get the "agreement vote." That doesn't happen here.
Especially in the gaming communities of Lemmy the users are so hateful towards literally any upcoming "AAA+" game that gets posted about. Like you can't even say you think something looks fun without a bunch of people just coming to downvote you or give you shit for daring to announce that you're excited for something new.
