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.

They just don't give a shit anymore, they basically toppled down the world order that at the very least claimed to care.
It also doesn't really matter because Reddit has gone from trying to create centralized subs to doing the thing of putting everyone into their own cattle processing bubble. Try creating a new account and subscribing to the conservative sub if you want to experience how far to the side the rabbit hole goes. This is why young people are getting radicalized, their parents have no clue how their social networks are radicalizing them because they are getting a very different experience than them.
Incidentally and seriously, a few days ago I tried doing account recovery to the outed Ghislaine Maxwell email on reddit to see if I could get a confirmation whether she had had an account on reddit or not. Unfortunately, the page was fortified against that sort of account presence checking vector, I just find it funny that it seems to have coincided with her return to worldnews - I doubt I was the only one to try it. I also tried to access the account with some of the passwords that had been leaked.
Previously, a person who had claimed to work in the legal field had claimed ownership of the account in internal conversations and had denied being Ghislaine Maxwell. Which makes sense, her lawyer's are not her, and they acted in about the same way legal representation wanting to keep things undercover would act. She also attended the same events in Silicon Valley as reddit CEOs did, like Ellen Pao revealed. There's also a lot of work showing the coincidences between the posting / comment frequency and real life events Ghislaine Maxwell attended, and comments that were at least apologetic to pedophiles.
After trying to recover her account, it's the first time I ever got an account really shadowbanned and confirms that they've either begun to implement more stringent browser fingerprinting on their end (sessions were different but on the same machine and no browser obfuscation was present) or that they already have had it for quite a while but only seem to care to track them in certain cases. The account itself was rather new and benign, having tried to play nice avoiding controversial takes, so no cares given.
