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.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

MODERATORS
If you didn't want to talk about Reddit, you didn't need to come into this community. You can go.
You're in the wrong neighbourhood buddy
Y'all have the whole rest of the Fediverse to not to talk about Reddit. This is the one community that is supposed to discuss it. Fuck off.
It's the endpoint of enshitification. Facebook and IG are like that for me. I don't see anybody that I know or the thousands of accounts that I follow. It's almost completely ads, suggested, and inflammatory content.
Easiest solution: Fediverse.
Are you browsing on a desktop? I don't see ads and suggested communities/posts with UbO enabled.
I haven't used it in a while, but I remember the experience being pretty good (dependent on your subs) when browsing 'old' mode, with ublock on to clean it up. Hopefully the former is still supported and the latter is still not prevented.
Yeah I forgot to mention I am using old.reddit. Combined with uBO, I've never seen ads or suggestions.
Ubo?
Presumably uBlock Origin.
