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.

You VASTLY overestimate how much anyone cares.
The president is a rapist with multiple high profile affairs and strong ties to epstein's pedophile island. It took the better part of four years for people to decide that spending time on a twitter that was increasingly just pro-nazi rhetoric, snuff, and porn was a bad idea... and they only did that because a different corporate owned social media site finally switched to open registration.
It doesn't matter what reddit leadership does or might have done. People will use the site until the Influencers switch to a different one. Simple as that.
I do think most attempts to explain stock prices is pointless. And it's just back where it was a year ago.
But if we're going to explain any narrative I think this one makes the most sense. I could also try to guess where the price will be in 5 years, which is also impossible. Why not guess 0? If we're having fun I might as well be optimistic.
... Okay. If you don't think there is enough evidence and don't like the explanation already given (the entire stock market is REALLY volatile right now because of the constant threat and enacting and repealing of tariffs) then... sure. I guess you can choose to make up whatever shit you want because it makes you happy?
That is totally not an incredibly problematic mindset and one of the root causes of the hellscape we live in.
Just explaining the upvotes and why I found it interesting. It's like astrology, there's nothing wrong with entertainment. Not everything needs to be correct or rationale. Sometimes it's fun to act you know? Anyone who thinks they understand the stock market movements is a dunce.
My astrology reading for you today is a positive mindset, sunny weather and rainbows in your wake. I know you'll have a rain cloud but it's fun to pretend! 😜
