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
From one of the pages describing "reputation":
Governance Polls have a Decision Threshold that they must meet in order to pass. This is the minimum amount of weighted vote that the winning option must have for the poll to be considered approved by the community.
The Decision Threshold is set to a minimum of 10% of Points in a community and is updated algorithmically according to the activity on recent governance polls. As more votes are cast on Governance Polls, the Decision Threshold for future Governance Polls increases.
Governance Polls can be used to change distribution rules for Points or get input on other community decisions, such as content rules or flairs. They are enacted by Reddit in the case of distribution rules and the moderators for rules that require nuanced community input.
I mean, what do you say to this? They've gone completely insane.

Bahahaha fucking NFTs, a bit late to the party
reddit being reddit
In the real world, communities are independent entities, free to choose where and how they hang out. No one tells them what to do or where to go.
I guess the people who run Reddit really think none of their audience was educated by say... Snoopy.... or seen a "no skateboarding" sign in their life. You can just hang out anywhere IRL!
Am I just too old to understand this? I don’t get it at all. Does any of it translate to real money?
I don't if I trust crypto man now if they were paying in nfts which are totally lagit I might consider it
Well to be honest I never paid any attention to the old system either
Call me when you get past the “first step” where Reddit controlled NFTs somehow make communities independent from Reddit.
