The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

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.

Lemmy isn't THAT hard to use, but it's def not as user friendly as Reddit at first glance. That's why I waited a bit to come here. Turns out that it's not that hard, but it def does NOT look friendly when you come from Reddit. So many versions, you don't know which one, so many instances, etc.
But reddit has become such an asshole if one doesn't subscribe to their exact political narrative, I finally switched over today. I legit got banned because I posted a news article about the Green Party to the r /politics sub.
I immediately used VPN and just created another account, so not a huge deal. But then I was like, why? I want something new. Fuck reddit.
So the news that reddit may start charging is just icing on that shitcake.
The Boomers and Xoomers can destroy Reddit like they did Facebook while Spez sells the data from the golden years.
It won’t last long. I am guessing almost all of prime Reddit years have been scraped and the interest in the AI shitposting that remains won’t be worth much for anyone.
