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.

Warning: Elon Musk now has Huffman bending the knee. Whitepeopletwitter, iselondeadyet and loads of other Elon critical subs have been banned or suspended.

Just a warning, Reddit is no longer a safe place for free speech, it is compromised.

Woah, looks like a post from a few years ago must have gotten stuck behind a file cabinet!

A reddit thread about this is what actually led me here. Reddit has been on my shit list for a while, it's cool this place exists.

Non-corporate owned media is going to be the only way to escape the continued enshittification of the internet.

Huffman isn't bending the knee. He's been deep throating Musk for quite a while. Even before the whole API thing, it was known the he saw Musk as a great role model.

Yeah, Reddit hasn’t been safe in a long time. If people are only just now realizing that, it’s because they’ve been extremely sheltered from… Well… Gestures vaguely at everything

[–] [email protected] 1 points 33 minutes ago

You are correct. I didn't realize how shit it was until I focused on being more security minded. I ditched almost all centralized social media. I'm working to get rid of Facebook and hopefully google next. That's going to be hard .

Could there be a better example of why not to remain on Reddit?

The United States of America has become comfortable with bending the knee to petulant man-children. What an utterly pathetic time to be an American. Truly embarrassing.

I missed reddit simply because I can't find the fucking porn on Lemmy (though I realize now that it might be because I"m on lemm.ee)

No I have no reason to miss it

You may need to check the "show NSFW" button in your settings.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 hours ago

I do, but it never shows up on my feed

Some Lemmy instances block lemmynsfw, so you won’t see it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 hours ago

This is a little too vanilla and 3D for my taste, but thank you

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 hours ago

At least there plenty of Blahaj Hentai on Lemmy.

Eventually, someone will Luigi Elon. Absolutely no one will care.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 25 minutes ago

I’d care! I’d throw a massive fucking party.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Hey now... for about 10 minutes a bunch of people with names like Groyper1488, IdFuckMyTeslaIfItHadATailpipe and BitcoinKing will be very upset.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

They won't care that he has been luigied, they will care about their shytocurrency.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 hours ago

Hence why the period of mourning would only be 10 minutes.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 hours ago

what was that song again the slave owners sang? 'land o'the freeeee' or sth.... it gets funnier the more history they produce.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 hours ago

Good. That will only sped up Reddit pulling a bluesky on their asses.
All they need to do is find a distributed alternative that won't bend the knee to any one entity.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 8 hours ago

Most have come back, /drugs for example. The admins said its a glitch, I can't beleive that and glad I'm here. I have no doubt reddit will get on its knees in the name of $$$$$$.

Welcome back! Lemmy’s a decent amount better than it was a year and a half ago :)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 19 minutes ago

Well, we're a lot angrier because of
