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:
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.
Reddit improved their anti-ban evasion system, cuz it's the sixth or more failed attempt at evading a permanent ban. Never more, I am staying here.
FUCK YOU, SPEZ!
I finally overwrote all my comments and deleted my account. 16 years there, but as soon as I checked the front page this week before deleting, every comment and post was the same old "this" and "take my upvote" and vitriolic hate toward different or uncommon opinions, zero dialogue, such a mess
Thanks lemmings
You forgot "and my axe", "to shreds you say" and "I wish they didn't remove awards so I could give you one", or maybe even the 'rare' "take my angry upvote and leave"?
Yeah I like that we can actually hold real conversations here, as far as 'real' goes of course.
You forgot "this is the way"
^^ This
Take my upvote and get out.
Thanks for the gold kind stranger! (Well not anymore hehe)
Yup. It feels like I am usually talking to individuals here, which is much more enjoyable than flailing in an overwhelming monoculture.
Y'indeed I love seeing notifications here and reload every few minutes to see if someone replied to me (not now obviously because I'm high and forgot to reply to you earlier and it's also taking me a good few minutes to type up this reply).
On Reddit I usually hoped that everyone upvoted, of course, and that none of them reply. Especially when I argumented with someone, because I'm actually really bad at argumenting about things I perceive as negative. [...]
The rest is just a stoned tirade (I didn't want to delete it because I find it amusing), there's no Tl;Dr to be made, just don't read it unless you choose to make me a god and want to use the genoxidedev1 lore to practice that new religion. Anyways:
[...] I'm also bad at argumenting about things I'm good at, which only leaves me being good at argumenting about things I'm bad at, but I'f im good at argumenting about things I'm bad at it would mean that I'm good at argumenting about me argumenting about things I'm good at, so, if we use that logic for all the other things I could be doing I'm actually the best at everything. Wow. I just lost an argument against myself, cool or something.
That was quick, thanks! Have one back

2 people giving me positive status effects in such little time, I wonder what the boss fight is gonna be..
how do you see reply notifications on kbin
I also choose to beat this mans dead horse
That's a new one to me! Because they still had awards the last time I used it.
Yea that's just what replaced the "Have my poor mans gold 🏅" now, which still somehow comes up too.
Hold my updoot, I'm going in
Plenty of that shit on here mate
And pun chains, and a guy quoting a Simpsons episode followed by 12 more idiots quoting the rest of the episode. Painful. I see that shit in lemmy but not nearly as much.
Just make sure to check again in a day or two. At the height of the purge, reddit was shown to be restoring deleted or over-written comments to what they were before.
I know that they were restoring deleted accounts, but I don't think there's any way for them to restore over written comments to previous versions, so overwritten comments are probably more important than actually deleting the account, although you can delete it after you overwrite everything.
Nothing is ever deleted from Reddit and edits are stored. Deleting it doesn't actually delete it, it just marks it as deleted.
This is information coming directly from Reddit devs/admins over the years.
Can you link to evidence of comments being timestamped, restored or archived by reddit? I've read about both deletes being reversible and edits being stored, but I found no incontrovertible evidence for comment iterations being stored or recovered, although there seems to be a lot of anecdotal evidence for deleted accounts being easily restored by admins, which would make sense.
No because I can't be bothered. Its common knowledge and again, this comes from multiple confirmations even from spez himself.
I've heard that repeated, but I haven't seen any evidence of it with regards to overwritten comments. Deletions, yes, but so far there doesn't seem to be any cause for concern for restoring overwritten comments.
I had stopped using Reddit but hadn't deleted my account, your comment reminded me to do that. Just deleted it. :)
Nice. The increase in content is not worth the headache and tedium.
