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 just joined because of this. i was waiting for lemmys community to grow a bit larger first but r/all is literally the only reason i browse reddit at all. these idiots are playing themselves with this crap
That's the problem. All reddit users are waiting for lemmy to be larger without actually wanting to be part of making it larger. It's a vicious cycle. Fortunately for us reddit is hell bent on shooting it's own foot
I comment frequently and occasionally post, which puts me in the top % of users per the 90-9-1 rule
I believe Lemmy is pretty lively at the moment.
It's good enough now.that I don't get bored but there is still a narrow range of topics that are lively at the moment.
It is in some communities. But there are certain places I used to see pretty regular updates and engagement on Reddit that either don’t exist here or are absolute ghost towns. You can say that’s because of a different user base and different priorities and that’s fair — but then you can’t complain about low involvement/engagement by people who want to participate in those communities.
I miss the thriving, active subreddits for fountain pens, watches, and calculators. I tried being the change I wanted to see in a watch community, but after about a week of being the only poster, It just kinda felt like I was just showing off my watch collection. Fountain pens is a bit more active, at a few posts per month. Forget about calculators.
Yeah. I’m a fan of some less-popular musicians who have a few hundred Redditors and at least a dozen active participants. Here it’s literally me talking to a wall. Or no forum at all.
That's a shame. I think I've been talking at my coworkers more without those spaces, probably more than they are interested. But yeah, the empty communities here are just like yelling into the void.
I work from home; my coworker is a dog.
ok, but if we want to change we have to start at some point
Welcome and thanks for joining. I hope you can realize the irony of not joining because not enough other people joined.
Me too. TI don't understand this move
Nice! Browsing by All here works great, just block the communities you aren't interested in. I started out subscribing to ones I wanted but the smaller scale makes All decently readable. If there's a community you wish was here feel free to start it!
Browse by All, Top 6 Hours gang rise up
I do Top 12 because I try to touch grass on occasion.
Heck yeah, even browse by New is manageable sometimes!
I like the "new comments" section myself
Reporting for duty.
Is there a way to block communities without having to enter them? Sometimes I'm like "icch, that's nasty", but I have to get all up in the nasty to turn it off.
There should be, yeah theres some real... eccentric folks here. Maybe a future update will allow "block community" right from the post. Not to my knowledge, apart from going to your user profile settings and typing it into the actual block list.
If you go to your settings, there should be another tab up left that has all the blocking options
Okay, I can just c&p the community name to that page. Thanks!
Welcome!
Welcome friend!
