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.

Remember when Reddit said they wouldn’t touch old.reddit?
People understand they can just leave that site, right?
I wish more people would leave and bring their niches over here. There’s still so many things missing on Lemmy.
I have so many posts to share, questions to ask, and things to do....but Lemmy is not as robust with users. And I refuse to participate on reddit. I need an /c/ xbox360hacks.
I got answers and engagement from communities that seemed dead on Lemmy due to lack of users. You should just try to ask your questions... One answer that truly helps is already enough usually, you don't actually need 100 users upvoting the same answer or 12 different answers where only 1 is good. For many things, low engagement is already sufficient.
Yeah, I browse All on Lemmy which I never would do on Reddit, and engage with whatever posts I connect with. I wonder if there are others who do the same.
Posting to new or "inactive" communities I think is less of a shout into the abyss on Lemmy compared with Reddit.
I do browse on all as well.
You can try on !xbox@lemmy.world or !retrogaming@lemmy.world
Every tv show I watch I have to go to Reddit to view the conversation. And bite my tongue cause I refuse to log in and give content.
Same with watching the political debates. That was my preferred method of conversation.
Which shows are you in? We had some episodes discussion on !showsandmovies@lemm.ee, but they never really took off. If you are interested in a show, you can maybe try posting there and see if other people want to discuss it with you?
Same here with various niche things. Reddit had a much higher percentage of jerks, though, so I'm overall better off not participating there.
