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.

Reading this: are they implementing ActivityPub?

Blockchain

Oh sweet lord, no. No, they are not.

Someone at Reddit had Blockchain missing in their buzzword bingo for 2023, I swear.

I think that's their point, to sound like the Fediverse but is actually a different way for them to get money and control the narrative. They're also possibly trying to take away shutting down shitty sites "by giving the communities control."

Like, they're giving users monopoly money, and try to pass it off as control. Like, the fuck are they gonna do with the monopoly money?

Plus imagine if users actually believe the monopoly money is important. We're back on the days of BB Forums where you can make a factual point but oops, you're level 2 and the forum regular (4506 posts) just called you a cocksucker.

Edit: Oh god, the moderator wallet thing. They're letting moderators moderate themselves. This is going to set off a massive amount of infighting as some admins will take the whole wallet and the other moderators will call them out and the seriousness of the whole thing (moderation teams not getting along) will get drowned out with all the people shitposting about fighting for monopoly money.

This is the stupidest thing I've ever read.

Simple - the illusion of control. And, I'm sure the users will.

Thank goodness, I wasn't the only one. I really thought they were talking about activitypub.
