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.

The writing was on the wall when reddit restricted buying awards in anything but the official app. For some reason, I even have a vivid recollection of where I was in the world when that went down.
Back in 2014 RIF was $2 one time purchase for a completely ad free experience. I knew that couldn’t last forever, but I enjoyed the 9 years I did have.

Reminds me of Boxxy for some reason.
The original meme has the person's name as "katy", and Boxxy's real name is Catie, so whoever wrote the original might well have been parodying her.
Edit: After a bit more research, there's the tiniest sliver of a chance it might have been based on her pre-Boxxy online activity, because it pre-dates her use of the name, but it's probably nothing to do with her.
Maybe, but I'm pretty sure that copypasta was around long before boxxy.

This comment just gave me a little bit of PTSD
Makes me 'member these informative graphics on 4chan ~2008 that categorized users into oldfags, newfags and cancer. Anyone else 'member?
Ah yes the elderfags. What a time.
Eternal September just won't stop.
I pay the yearly subscription for Sync Pro, and I consider it a donation more than anything. I've gotten so many years out of that app, and the developer choosing to repurpose it to Lemmy made my transition here almost seamless from reddit.

For a lot of the OGs on Reddit it got worse after the whole AMA Victoria thing. That was really when Reddit went downhill. Before that Reddit was amazing with AMAs that kept you refreshing constantly to be live in the chat, and posts that were funny and discussion that felt a bit more meaningful.
We can look at a million things over the years and say this is when it went wrong. It's all hindsight 20/20. The reality is that we're here now, and, at least for me, I enjoy it here. 💜
Yes! That was when it was so blatent to any die-hard users.

I miss bacon reader =[
I miss bacon reader too ... sobs
apollo was so nice to use
I got great news for you!
Apollo exists for the fediverse!
Just look up „voyager“ app for iOS!
I currently just use the webapp (no difference to the app). To „install“ the webapp (iOS) just go to the website and create a shortcut on homescreen.
I love it and probably wouldn’t use lemmy without it!
Edit: I’m not affiliated
Edit2: source code on GitHub
Edit3: it should be available for Android too. Unintentionally made it seem like it’s iOS exclusive

I found a loop hole in the reddit-verse and am able to use bacon reader like its early 2023. I mourn the day this glitch in the matrix is removed from my devices. Until then, carry on!
Why has the reddit mascot got chips on its head now?
He's a wild and crazy guy!! Click on this wild and crazy guy for a coupon at McDonald's! Post three reddit posts telling us how great your McDonald's experience was for another chance to win! Woo hoo!
These days if I wanna check reddit on my phone I just navigate to old.reddit on my phone's browser.

I think the true cutoff for me with Reddit was when they perma banned me for commenting that I should in fact be allowed to punch nazis (pretty sure it was a mass report thing going on)
