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.

Everyone please be nice to the influx of newcomers

If you cannot resist the urge to blurt out your alternative socioeconomic views try your best to at least do it gently

We may have our opinions about the qualities of Reddit. But the Daily Mail? I feel dirty, just having a link to that dump on my screen.

Voyager has an option to block specific websites/keywords which may be useful to you (depending on your device of choice). Not sure if other front ends have that but I think it's worth looking into.

Not thousands enough

Just log in on another server... Duh!

Reddit.com still works. Old.reddit.com does not.

Wonder if they've decided to finally do away with old reddit?

Edit: Old.reddit is back up for what it's worth.

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 10 points 2 days ago

Back up now for me, all frontends.

Reddit down report #420 this year.

Tell me when AWS or something is down. Reddit goes down so often it becomes a nothing burger

[–] SpicyLizards@reddthat.com 48 points 2 days ago

Nooooo, the poor 100 users and 2 billion bots!

[–] terraborra@lemmy.nz 19 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Not just the US. Can’t access it from NZ either.

I definitely prefer the vibe of lemmy but there’s still communities I visit on Reddit for reviews and discussions about more niche topics.

...butt I'm on the toilet! I need my precious!

I was looking something up and of course Reddit came up but kept telling me “YOU BROKE REDDIT”.

What a shitty way to express an issue that your site is causing for users. Just go ahead and blame the users. That’s great for noobs who don’t know anything and will legitimately think they did something wrong on their end.

I was wondering why it kept giving me a "you broke reddit" error. Not that Im visiting reddit for funsies, but its where just about every troubleshooting search result takes me, which is frustrating.

[–] ragepaw@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 days ago

It was you!!!!!!

[–] Mio@feddit.nu 3 points 2 days ago (5 children)

This problem cannot happen to feddiverse? All nodes just queue sending to others?

The bots that are reddit's biggest users can detect downtime in milliseconds.
