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.

As long as they honor what people have currently bought, honestly this is the first time they've made a change I agree with. Awards were usually used for trolling from what I saw
It doesn’t look like they will. It looks like you have until September to use or lose. Also, it looks like if you bought premium, you’re just losing that “feature” with no replacement value for your money
It also looks like they are going to implement some kind of “contriburor” payment scheme.
I have an annoying amount of coins still. What do you think would be the best way to use them? If they're not showing up at all, it seems moot to award the anti-reddit/changes comments or posts.
I do too. I was given premium because alien blue and something else so I have tons and tons of coins. I don’t think it’s worth giving Reddit the traffic to give them out, especially if they are all going to disappear in a. Couple months anyhow. My account is still active I just haven’t been to Reddit since the 11th June.
I had premium for maybe a year or two, back when it was first implemented. Coins just piled up because of it and Sync didn't have the ability to award so I just forgot about them. (Or maybe it did have the feature and I'm a dum-dum)
I very much enjoyed ripping out all of the award code in Sync for Lemmy.
Love Sync! I think I've purchased it like, 5 times across two Google accounts and the pro/dev/beta or whatever versions over the last 10 years.
I did have a question; if Lemmy were to introduce flairs, would you want to reimplement them? I absolutely loved being able to see which team someone supported on r/cfb so I knew whether or not I could respect their opinion.
This is very important to me.
I need to judge people based on their favorite teams...
If Lemmy devs add it sync will support it
Seems like the bigger challenge is getting a CFB community populated on the fediverse in the first place.
Yeah they basically didn't care about the API stuff and I don't know that they ever shut down.
I'm hoping people can start migrating but I'm not hopeful.
Heyyy! Thanks so much for all the work you put into Sync (pro) over the years! Hopefully the transition to Lemmy hasn't been too much of a hassle. Apologies for not seeing the award feature in the app - I'm clearly a dum dum :-D

Ah I could only show awards, Reddit never allowed 3P apps to give / buy awards.
Ah gotcha. I'll take being partially dum-dum. Have a great weekend!
Give them to me so I don't have to see ads 😂
How many? I have some too, but not many, just 800.
