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.

I'm less Reddit these days than Jerboa, mostly because of Reddit's extreme us-centricity. Jerboa is better, but our nutty downstairs neighbours still fill up every social medium in Canada.

Fuck that asshole. No, Steve, this isn't envy, it's disgust.

According to the latest quarterly earnings, there has been increase in user engagement. However, I also read somewhere that 15% of engagements are from bots. My suspicion is that, in spite of the tiny minuscule amount of fake users posing as genuine, these bots create inflammatory comments to trigger and drive real users into responding more and thereby inflate user engagement and algorithms. These small amount of bots create a snowball effect of increasing user participation. So, in essence, the level of user engagement is fake and inflated.

Spez knows what he's doing. He is talking to the tech bros to get ideas on how to amass power and now he's one of them billionaires.

I had to use Reddit a few days back because apparently that's the only place DuckDuckGo looks for search page bug reports

It felt bad

I used to spend a lot of time there but yeah fuck spez and the oligarchy dicksuckery he's blatantly committed to

We do we insist on creating these entitled special boys who don't give shit about us?
