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.

MODERATORS
That’s right. Stick it to Reddit by checks notes using Reddit.
Exactly. This is about as effective as a border around a profile pic to stop global climate change.
You don't have to stop using Reddit entirely to stick it to them.
Using Reddit a lot less? You are contributing to the overall drop in numbers
Using Reddit to protest? You are reminding others of the reasons which may draw others away and drop traffic over time
Using Reddit to let others know of the viable alternatives? Again you may draw even more people away if they find alternatives that they enjoy dropping traffic further
Not using Reddit for anything other than protest? You reduce the value of Reddit by not actually contributing any useful community content that draws people again damaging numbers.
My thoughts exactly, this is still generating a lot of traffic for reddit, and more proves the point that it doesn't matter what they pull, as long as they do some cool stuff that only happens on Reddit, people will still go. Maybe using place for advertising the fediverse would be better but even then, still using the system. Don't know the answer, just not sure this is as effective as we would hope.
