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.

Small price to pay 🫡
I remember when reddit also used to show 0, then it was one ad, people lost their shit, and reddit said don't worry, it's just one.
Side note: I never cared about ads on reddit. I cared about the loss of down votes, their treatment of the RES folks, their shitty app, their shitty hosting, etc.
But this raises the bigger issue, how do we pay for this? I'm on kbin, I have trust issues with money, but nobody is even asking for money low key Wikipedia style.
I've said about YouTubers if they made their own/joined a Peertube instance. At least I know the money wouldn't be going to money hungry CEO's, but directly to running their server or supporting them in SOME significant way
Isn’t that kind of like what Nebula and Curiosity Stream are?
I think curiosity stream is a bit different, but nebula and float plane are both creator run and owned and as far as I'm aware both are good to the people making content for them.
I saw a blog recently that had a subscription for a tracking free experience. I just thought it was strange because I either had to consent to all tracking or pay
in the first rounds of the adblock wars, there were several cases of users paying the subscription, whitelisting the site, and immediately being hit with malware …
