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.

I've deleted my account but only after I deleted or edited all my posts and comments. I actually used a script to edit all comments into a protest comment about reddit. If the script count edit, I had it delete
That script does nothing. They can reverse it. A guy here was talking about that. He had been a very heavy user in some tech support sub there. He used one of those accounts scrubbers and then went back to look a few weeks later and everything had been restored.
If I remember right he said he was one of the more well-known users on that subreddit? So he was probably somebody they looked at as being 'valuble'
The script works fine. What actually happened was that some subreddits were in blackout mode and therefore the comments were invisible but not yet deleted. When they returned the comments became visible again. Anything the script missed was because of the comments temporarily not being visible from the API. Simply running the script again was all that was needed once subreddits returned. My comments have stayed deleted after that.
