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.

most of upvoted content on reddit now is bots, shills and feds...
genuine conversation will get downvoted and drop to the bottom while bad faith actors push their agenda.
and yet most people still don't appear to spot this shit.
That's because good subs with proper moderation do not have this issue. Just filter out the worthless default subs and all the neo subs.
Is there any better alternative to /r/CasualConversation? Genuinely asking, sometimes I take inspiration from them for !casualconversation@lemm.ee
Are there any notable or recent examples of fed posts?
☝️
Not fair, I’m off shift right now.
On an unrelated note, let me take a video of you saying you’re going to kill the president.
Anyway I thought fed strategy was very legal totally-not-entrapment stuff on 4chan but I suppose reddit’s big enough they should be there too. Hopefully for CSAM & foreign bot research, not sex work & steroids.
Didn't we have incidents where some army base had uncanny amout of reddit activity
I am just assuming they are around trying to find mentally unstable people to entrap so they can "fight terrorism"
These clowns are known to find victims this way.
Like that Muslim kid in NY. he was retarded and they tried to get him to do terrirism but he chickened out. They still prosecuted and mom had to go explain to the judge that kid is literally reatrded.
These "undercover" get paid for this 🤡
Point being they are always around
