No-one accused the Reddit leadership as smart.
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.
Redreader still seems to be pulling posts into a collection like r/all. I have had some theories about how it works and have always used it to have an uncurated experience.
I'm thinking it isn't opening r/all in reddit's API and it instead kind of builds that selection of posts from everywhere on redreader's end. I can't prove it but the fact it's working now seems to play into this. Maybe I'm delusional.
Either way, fingers crossed reddit doesn't get sick of blind people getting to control their own content stream and boot it off the API. Would pretty much fit the bill for their shit
edit: They're actually wanting to kill /r/popular as well which invalidates points I was making, comment withdrawn.
Since my account got banned I browse r/all and use RES to filter subreddits I don't care for.
It still appears to be there. https://old.reddit.com/r/all/
I got banned for 7 days last week for allegedly being racist. I can't be bothered to argue there point with poorly educated moderators.
Reddit decides to remove it all.
Still works perfectly fine under Old Reddit. Was refreshing the page and browsing it just this morning.
They're saying it will be phased out entirely...
It works, for now
I don't really get the hate for that decision. For years, r/all was just straight up bots upvoting posts. You had posts with 50k+ upvotes and about a hundred comments in total. And the karma farmers made sure you saw the same post 2 or 3 times on the front page, just from different subreddits.
