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.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Lol nothing says we are afraid of the working class like banning subreddits on suppressed news they don’t want us to see. I came here bc I got a warning on my account for liking a comment that said “Luigi”. My alt account got banned for sharing the DOGE email list that is public info. Fuck Reddit. I’m done.

Might have been your post that brought me to Lemmy, too. Saw lots of folks saying they got warnings for Luigi/other content I am interested in, and decided I am out, too.

Will spend a couple weeks encouraging people in some of my niche communities, and then no more reddit.

/r/conservative and /r/conspiracy are still open... What a fucking shit-ass website. I don't get why they don't just # rm -rf the whole fucking thing already.

Clearly they're pissed that people are still using the site. They've made efforts to stop it by making shit redesigns, releasing a shitty app, user profiles, shutting off the API and trying to force people to use their shit app.

They must be seething that people are still using it and they've found a new way to try to get people to stop. Of course, they could shut the site down, but these are execs we're talking about - their forté is ignoring every elephant in the room and then creating "solutions" that completely miss the problem.

They're in the business of selling "organic" content to AI companies, but those AI companies don't want advertiser-unfriendly language in their datasets.

Reddit is compromised.

I’m done as well. Fuck them.

[–] AloneYogurt@lemmy.world 108 points 23 hours ago (8 children)

Man the censorship is just vile too. It's not like "Oh this incites violence" it's "anything and everything that we and our shareholders don't agree on is gone".

Worst part is if any other countries went after them then they would just restrict it to US news.

People saw this coming from miles away since the rumors came out of reddit going for an IPO.

Question is why people keep getting outraged?

[–] misteloct@lemmy.world 8 points 14 hours ago

We were pissed then and we're pissed now. The only difference is there's a real alternative. Lemmy is a lot more polished these days.

Good. Welcome to the new home. It feels like Reddit 2009.

Lemmy has been my #1 discovery of 2025

I came here with the API changes, but I knew there would be future waves. It’s so nice. I believe in Lemmy and the promise of federated media to help technology work for humans.

Make advertisers into bad words "hellofresh the rich" " squarespace the ceos"

[–] dzso@lemmy.world 14 points 15 hours ago

I think you mean "Nintendo the CEOs"

[–] skittle07crusher@sh.itjust.works 23 points 18 hours ago

This is, excuse me, fucking brilliant

Its truly nuts over there. I have now had 5 different accounts perma banned and im tired of evading their fingerprinting just to bypass each pan for similar comments. Like nothing that the general public would find controversial even remotely.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 12 points 16 hours ago (3 children)

It's crazy to think how hard people work to evade the system that is designed to get you to leave.

Like, it speaks to the addictive nature of social media. How many hours? How much research? How many different angles of attack? All to... what? Shout "Donald Trump is a bad president" into the void amid a sea of bots and /r/HailCorporate influencer accounts? (Incidentally, RIP HailCorporate).

Time to leave reddit altogether

[–] kava@lemmy.world 51 points 20 hours ago (5 children)

Reddit may actually be doing a lot of people a big favor.

Today Trump's DHS went out and arrested a Palestinian student at Columbia for participating at a protest a year prior. Our federal agents are becoming like the KGB- hunting down political dissidents.

I believe that is just a start. I think people would be wise to be careful about the things they post online. If you do post content you believe the administration may not like, I suggest making an anonymous account with an email not linked to your personal name.

I have a hunch that people will be arrested in the near future for posting things online.

[–] krashmo@lemmy.world 34 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

That may be true. Still, don't let them make you afraid. That's the goal. They can't arrest all of us.

For posterity, fuck you Donald Trump and fuck you Elon Musk. Send the goons after me and prove you have thinner skin than an apple.

I’m so happy to move on from that shithole. It’s a massive psyop at this point.
