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.

I mean, fuck reddit. A lot of individual subs are horrible, and the site as a whole is awful. If you want to stay at it, I’m sure there’s somewhere where you can post the same content. If not, great
Not ever being able to use reddit again isn’t a huge issue for me. I was growing frustrated with it for a while.
What had me worried was that this appeal (which I’m presuming was done by a human) upheld the ban. Being told essentially “you’ve broken rule 3 which is tantamount to posting creep shots” had me worried, like I was in some kind of serious trouble.
What I find offensive and startling is when platforms accuse you of "encouraging violence" when you didn't. That even happened to me on Twitter (pre musk!) regarding Trump, and their system is you have to basically admit you did it and delete the comment to use your account again. So I was like wtf, in order to proceed, I have to basically admit I made a threat against the president? When I DIDN'T? All I said was I thought he'd be too old and unhealthy to run in 2020. More recently I said Elron Musk hates poor people and basically wants them to die, and Reddit said the same thing, that was "wishing harm or violence" on someone. I hate this AI moderation bullshit. It was a 3 day ban but I deleted my account and haven't been back.
