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
No, user numbers are not down because of a Google change. User numbers are down because they went ban crazy during the election and Luigi stuff.
If you ban people who produce your content, your site quality & engagement declines. It’s not rocket science.
Btw, they’re definitely reversing some of these bans to try to pull people back, and inflate the number of “returning” users. They permabanned two of my accounts for wrongthink during the election, and they’ve already reversed one with no prompting from me at all, after denying appeals months ago.
I got an account strike the other day and a post removed "by Reddit" according to the message for saying something to the effect of "protests without a threat of violence behind it doesn't mean much to those in power these days" on a thread about some ongoing protests.
Something about a site rule violation for advocating for and/or calling for violence.
My accounts were permabanned because Trump said Liz Cheney deserved to be shot, and I said I didn’t care because she’s called for the deaths of millions of people overseas. Banned for “advocating violence,” simply because I didn’t clutch my pearls that a warmonger was threatened.
Why does his head look like that?
Dollar store Ken.
Because he’s a greedy little pig boy.
Leftover lube residue from him removing it from his ass moments before the picture was taken? I didn't click on the thumbnail just my default assumption...
Its a side effect of a diet that is a little too heavy on the pineal glands, so, I was told.
He eats pineal glands??
As someone who has to check reddit once in a while, they've begun to completely hide the topic and replies of some threads. Luckily, old.reddit still works. I'm not going to log in to see shit that is public.
I wonder if the "google search benefit" also includes google down ranking lemmy instances
"Plunge"
Lemmy poster OBLITERATES claim on NBC article. Readers OUTRAGED.
-13% after hours on one day is huge. Many stock markets having emergency stops if the main index drops by 10% in a day.
NVIDIA's stock tanked a month ago, and it's already back up. Nothing really changes. There's no such thing as a "plunge" in the stock market, unless a business is truly going bankrupt.
It's referring to that after-hours part.
Jfc that thumbnail of Huffman's face triggered me. How did he manage to make his face look MORE punchable??
With the power of ai they managed to create the most punchable face ever. So he only had to follow the blueprint laid out for him.
Reddit has said it is working to convince logged-out users to create accounts as logged-in users, which are more lucrative for its business.
By "convince," they mean:
- Popup to automatically sign in with Google
- A button right under where you close that popup that shows a QR code to install the app
- Bottom bar on mobile telling you to make an account
- Clicking an upvote or downvote button instantly sending you to the account signup page, even if clicked by accident
- Full-screen popup only on mobile to download the app if you're accessing anything NSFW (includes posts that simply have too much vulgar language, and are considered "NSFW" in that community, as well as any account page for an account that has ever made an NSFW post)
Yes, very convincing, heavily coercive even!
old.reddit still works... And it's still a far superior experience to the shit they churned after.
So glad I got banned from that site (Not for anything wrong, I just pissed off the wrong power hungry mods which resulted in a site wide ban.)
Same here. The mods there are just power-hungry wankers.
I love when I'm troubleshooting something, click on a record link from like 2018, and get a modal encouraging me to "join this trending conversation!"
Cant open any unverified communities, which is very arbitrary, any small community now requires the app
That's part of the enshittification rug pull, they take over as the hub of forums for most of the internet and then gatekeep as a power play.

[email protected] if you want to help promote Lemmy Piefed Mbin to new users!
I always thought he was a little piss baby but pigboy works too
Close, but that's Texas Gov Abbott. Easy mistake, as they're both giant pieces of shit.
Fuck spez
Bros face looks like my cats anus while sliding a cookie out.
Reddit has benefited from Google search updates and internal site improvements that have helped it gain a significant amount of new and returning users, which the social company refers to as logged-out users, over the past year and a half. Reddit has said it is working to convince logged-out users to create accounts as logged-in users, which are more lucrative for its business.
Expect to see more login paywall bullshit from Reddit.
The best way to increase the usage base of a social media site is to block people from accessing it. Everybody knows that.
There isn’t one damn thing that shit hole site could ever do to get me to log back in.
Well, maybe deleting my account
Fair point
What if every time you logged back in Spez would get kicked in the balls?
They should make an app for that.
Fuck. You found one of my many weaknesses.

It's almost like communication platforms shouldn't have profitability as their main goal... maybe they could be... distributed... like some sort of... federation. Yeah. That's it. Then everyone would follow along like... lemmings or something
In other news, Lemmy stock mooned infinity% from 0.00 to 0.00 plus beans.
Beans!
Reddit shares plunge after missing engagement numbers due to fall off following enshitification
Holy hell how much plastic did Huffman invest to look like a dollar general bond villain.
