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.

10+ years from now reddit will be at reduced popularity, but still a major player in the social media scene. i say this because i left other social media sites before the term "social media" existed and those old sites are still chugging along, making money for the new owners despite a 75%-ish drop in users and content.
i've been wantin to leave reddit for a while and the changes gave me the final straw i needed to make the jump; you should be leaving reddit because it benefits you somehow. there's nothing you can do to affect reddit unless you have enough money to affect a change in its direction.
It will probably resemble myspace: https://myspace.com/
As a worst case scenario; I bet it'll becoming more like digg
Reddit’s actually less of a major player than it feels like when you’re in it.
Look at its place in The Internet Map: http://internet-map.net/#6-146.44287523142916-86.10421783299574
that’s pretty interesting. for all the talk of tumblr being “dead” it’s still bigger than reddit on there. I never left tumblr but I would not have guessed it’s so big.
