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
Good, this will push more people to alternatives
More, yes, but still almost nobody...
The amount of people in the world is a pretty insane number, which makes "almost nobody" 8800 users visiting per day just on lemmy.world, and it's still growing pretty fast.
I'm fine with reddit doing their shit for the masses, and the ones with a bit more critical sense coming here.
45k monthly active users is already something
It’s not nothing but reddit claims about 270 million weekly active users. So it’s ultimately a difference of about 270 million (especially given that some active users here likely still use reddit and aren’t strictly a loss for them)
It’s a good thing though. The fediverse needs to grow a bit to feel less like a ghost town on less popular communities but when you grow too much you become a shitty community filled with bad decisions and poorly thought out compromises
Are the bots subtracted from that number?
You mean from the 45k? Hahaha... Ha... :(
Lemmy has a high enough user base to be entertaining and somewhat useful.
