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.

So, when your account is banned on Reddit, does that remove all your posts? Because that would be cool. I left Reddit back in mid 2023 and came to Lemmy. I tried to delete all my old posts there, but they wouldn't let me. I tried editing them and they reverted back to their original form. When I deleted them, they appeared to be deleted while I was logged in, but if I logged into another account the posts were still there. If getting a ban will get them deleted finally, then that would be well worth paying that cesspool a visit for a while.
I used react.dev to change all of my posts to say "[date] As per the legal owner of this account, Reddit and associated companies no longer have permission to use the content created under this account in any way."
I figured it sounds like something a lawyer would tell me to put. Just checked and my old posts still say that.
Though interestingly there was a silly fan theory I posted there that some shit entertainment media sites linked to and when I first changed the posts those sites were displaying that message. I've checked again and somehow they have the text from my post on there now. So that's pretty weird.
Thanks. I'll have to try that.
Fyi i think they meant redact.dev, not react.dev lol
Ah, that helps. I was wondering if that was the case.
Is there a particular subreddit that is spiteful towards the word Luigi? I’m going to try saying Loo-E-G and see what happens. Perhaps the bots won’t recognize the phonic resemblance.
Foolish of them to make assumptions. We're all just talking about the jazz legend, Louie-G.
Try Un-Mario
Yeah, I got a notice and I don't even know what for as I have never spoken of Luigi. My best guess is that I responded to a poster talking about the inevitability of the USA rolling into Canada and taking everything and there's nothing we can do to stop it. I wrote back that Trump isn't getting anything and that I will die to protect my country. Boom, warning email from Reddit. Fuck them.
I got a notice this morning just for upvoting a post related to him saying if I keep upvoting anything similar I could get permbanned. The best part is they don't let you know which post you upvoted that got you flagged.
Just woke up to my account being suspended for suspicious activity after getting a warning.
Reddit really hates Mario's brother. What did Luigi do to your wife, spez? Mammamia that's an abomination
This is the final straw for me. Today, after years of accelerating decline, I deleted my Reddit account and made my Lemmee lurking official. My only regret is abandoning the the good people at Narwhal who always made Reddit better, but never had a chance to save it from its corporate-aspiring overlords. Good-bye!

I just got a 3 day ban. Here I am allowed to say that CEO assassination is basically self defense, right?
In this house, Luigi is an American hero. End of discussion.
say that CEO assassination is basically self defense, right?
I'm also new but from what I saw people here go even further than that, I think I'm going to like it here
Most of the time, if I say “Luigi” I’m actually talking about the character. Mario’s brother. The lil green plumber. Not the real life guy.
I’m not sure what’s gonna happen to discussion about Nintendo games but if first names themselves can be banned from being said (even if they take on a new meaning due to slang) there’s something seriously wrong with the platform.
there’s something seriously wrong with the platform.
The country.... And the ruling parasite class...
It's official folks, Reddit admins have actually lost their fucking minds.
They lost them in about 2014.
This shit brought me back to trying to get into Lemmy. I'm sure this is the straw for others too. May reddit enjoy it's diggification.
Yep that’s what brought me here. Reddit is gonna be just as censored as every other platform. Fuck that.

That sent me here as well. What a great way for them to advertise for a decentralized information exchange!
