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.

Reddit is a Nazi web site.

Yup. Also got my account suspension due to "suspicious activity" on "upvoting and engaging with discriminatory and violent content".

Meaning I upvoted posts condemning US's current position, and correcting the swarm of misinformation by US shills.

Glad I finally managed to nuke my entire reddit history and delete my account. F' that toxic cesspool. R/Europe and other euro-canadian subs already felt like more US and Russian shills were active than actual europeans or canadians.

i felt like r/europe was very "r/politics"-like, i distinctly remember one of my old acc was banned from there from a certain comment about ukraine, right before the banning madness began. and then one of the ukraine subs, r/ukraine or ukrainewareport was also getting more restrictive.

Never thought Reddit is so shady.

  • I literally just repeated a questionable source of a linked article (like "fox news" as a comment to highlight bias). -> 7 day ban
  • Then, i admit bad action: commented via long-time second account one single but wholesome comment during that period. (to someone in need in the same sub, giving a tip on how to handle bad lifesituation. not realizing its the same forum) -> permaban in that forum
  • 7 days of trying to talk as diplomatic and giving as possible to the mods, even revealing my innocence of my second account
    • ip ban on all my accounts without any other talks. (prolly the a mod forwarded that to reddit and they dont care at all about nuance)

had like 80k karma & original content posted over the years, but in the end: Gave me energy to join this community here and transfer.

Good riddance. Less american now, F Sillicon Valley more power to the people

i was annoyed how many foxnews articles was being posted on subs, do you people take fox news as serious enws?

some niche subs are super sensitive if you contradict them, something like r/gym bans you for even mentioning PEDS. i was responding someone qouting rob machelenny from isaip, said if he was juiced he would get that big, which was true by his own admission.

I was in a similar situation karma-wise. I was happy there until I saw how ruthless the mods could be. This is a better alternative to all that.

UK has a solid subvertising movement, I love it.

[–] gnuplusmatt@reddthat.com 25 points 18 hours ago

I love that its "Nazi, Nazi, Nazi ... Bellend"

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 1 points 9 hours ago

That's because they're afraid & hate when it happed, happens, and will happen again to Spez.

[–] Clbull@lemmy.world 11 points 16 hours ago

Because Spez is Elon Musk's little bitch.

[–] WoodScientist@sh.itjust.works 38 points 20 hours ago

Reddit is run by Nazi collaborators.

[–] Lord_Bork@sopuli.xyz 25 points 19 hours ago (5 children)

I am a Reddit refugee aswel. The moderators over there are way too petty. They removed countless posts from me for totally unclear reasons.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 3 points 9 hours ago

i think recent bans are coming from top down, aka reddit amins, and spez. the massive amount of people banned are from that right now.

[–] brax@sh.itjust.works 4 points 11 hours ago

It's dumb, you see posts deleted all the fucking time that fit the spirit of subreddits. Half the time the OPs don't even know their post was deleted by the mods, and there's absolutely no comment from the mods indicating why it was removed.

I miss 2010 Reddit.

[–] JacksonLamb@lemmy.world 8 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

I don't think most people realize, Reddit itself silently removes a lot of comments and posts, and not all of them even show up in the mod queues for mods to review them.

It's quite possible a Reddit AI removed your posts and no human even saw them.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 4 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

alot of the bans currently are reddit AI too. if you get that generic ban message, that doesnt give you the actual incident/comment of the ban, its most likely done automatically. its almost always "your account was ban for multi-violations on several accts" these are almost never repealable and you will get an AI rejection instead.

Because Reddit has chosen the wrong side of history.

Just like multiple German companies did when Hitler and his fascists rose to power.

[–] alp@lemmy.zip 4 points 9 hours ago

Those companies are still fucking filthy rich though.

[–] noxypaws@pawb.social 22 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

American companies too, IBM played a role in the holocaust.

[–] Auntievenim@lemmy.world 6 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

As did Ford and GE, and... something about a business plot?

Elon The Musky Husky needs a bath.

[–] Monzcarro@feddit.uk 60 points 23 hours ago (3 children)

I love all these. But what I particularly love is that there are three really clever ones and the fourth is like, fuck it, let's just call him a bellend.

[–] kameecoding@lemmy.world 14 points 21 hours ago (4 children)

My favorite part about UK English is that a lot of words are an insult, of course you wouldn't know that you donut.

It's also a village in Worcestershire, although that's two words.

I just found it funny in contrast to the others, but if it works, it works.

FYI, bellend is like dickhead.

"white power steering" that's brilliant(ly depressingly accurate)

White power steering is hilarious. Who ever made these is great

[–] Tempus_Fugit@midwest.social 26 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

If you can't post innocuous things like this to reddit, what is even the point of going there? That site went downhill extremely fast. Good, fuck reddit!

It'd probably because Huffman/Spez is a Musk wannabe.

[–] GeneralEmergency@lemmy.world 21 points 23 hours ago

I love the juxtaposition between the well thought out slogans and then just calling him a bellend.

[–] misteloct@lemmy.world 8 points 19 hours ago

I did Nazi that coming.
