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'm a lurker. I don't post on facebook or reddit or anywhere. Today I randomly got a message from reddit that my account was permanently banned for apparent repeated violations of their site wide rules. I have the ReVanced app on my phone that blocks ads on reddit just so those scumbags can't profit off me lurking, but it's the only reason I could fathom that is why I've been banned. Anyway I just wanted to vent so thanks for reading this if you did. Reddit fucking sucks.

You ain't missing a damned thing. Reddit is an AI content collection agency. It's swarming with bots, unhappy users, and those too dumb to find alternarives.

Getting banned on Reddit is literally easier than waking across the room. They're insane crybabies.

And nothing of value was lost

Do you have an email address associated with your account? I created my reddit account before email addresses were required. A couple weeks ago I received a site wide ban for unspecified reasons. On the main web site it just said that I had a permanent ban. But on old.reddit.com, it says "provide an email address to reactivate your account". So in my case the purpose of the ban was simply to force me to give them my email address, which I declined to do.

I was likewise banned for the crime of using a VPN and Reddit randomly deciding that was a breach of their ToS I guess. I appealed, but nobody answered.

I got banned for making a very dry unnoffensive joke with somebody about video games and they misunderstood it and threw a tantrum at me. I started laughing at them and asked if he was okay. He reported me and I was permabanned within a couple of hours. It's impossible not to offend people on Reddit. 😂

Haha what the hell. The admins are a bunch of cowards I swear. It's so bizarrely unreasonable that now I just pray for reddits downfall 😂
