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.

MODERATORS
 

Shredding up my Reddit comments (editing them to say fuck spez, linking to Lemmy and Kbin, not deleting but I don't care if they do end up deleted) and I got this.

I also got several hilarious AutoMod replies from different protesting subs. r/ProgrammerHumor requires a code block with an import statement before every comment, and r/shitposting has completely banned the letter B.

EDIT: So this is an AutoModerator message as pointed out by @SilverShrimp0 so might just be the r/absolutelynotme_irl mods trolling

That's from AutoModerator, which is configured by subreddit mods. Messages from Reddit admins would not come from AutoModerator.

Huh, I just realized that but I'm not sure what the AutoMod rule would be in that case.

[–] TheBig2023Meltdown@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's definitely subs automod, I used the delete tool a few years ago and got multiple messages telling me to stop scrubbing my comments

[–] Korne127@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's actually really interesting that subreddit mods set it up that way that it notices if someone changes so much so quickly and send such a message. I would have never thought of that, but I mean I guess it makes sense if they want to keep the subreddit content. Still really interesting. So these mods probably want to intimidate the person to get them to stop?

[–] TheBig2023Meltdown@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well it worked on me lol.. I stopped deleting my comments and just deleted my account

[–] Korne127@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Does that keep your comments forever?

[–] TheBig2023Meltdown@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes, but your account becomes "unlinked" from that comment. The user is shown as [deleted]

I tend not to delete my comments anymore because many people use Reddit as a source for information and I find it frustrating when a potential solution for me has their comments deleted

[–] Korne127@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, I know that with [deleted], but thanks for the answer.

That's just interesting for me because I thought a company would need to delete all information about a user if they delete their account… I wonder if this is conform to the GPDR.

[–] TheBig2023Meltdown@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have no idea about the gdpr aspect but I would assume it's fine because that comment is in no way linked back to you. I could be wrong

[–] Korne127@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why is it not linked to you? I could write my name here, my address, any personified information. And I think even without that a company must delete everything it got from you if you want.

[–] TheBig2023Meltdown@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

By that I meant linked back to your Reddit account

If you wrote any personal info on a public forum, it's probably already been archived somewhere anyways especially with Reddit (I can find most threads on archive.org)

I get what you mean by deleting your comments too though, but all I know is that Reddit doesn't do that. It just keeps the comment but makes it "anonymous"

[–] Korne127@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I know that most stuff is archived and everything, but my point still is that I thought that companies like Reddit have to delete all content a user generated like that. As I said, that's just what I'm pretty sure the law here was like, but I mean, probably I'm wrong. It's still very interesting to me; I might look into this at some other time.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.mindoki.com 1 points 1 year ago

Okay so where is that nuke script before it won't work anymore?!

Against the rules to use an adblocker? WTF.

[–] K3zi4@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Used it last night and wiped 12 years of history from my account, rewrote several comments to say I was an RiF user. It actually got me banned from a couple subs for spam. Not that it matters, shame it had to come to this!

[–] Korne127@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Have you downloaded the content before or anything like this? I mean I know that's a deeply personal stuff, but I could never imagine just deleting so much I put time into before I get a backup and can at least personally still have it.
