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.

Not sure how long exactly, but probably more than 10 years. And I'm gone!
2013-2023.
12 years here on my oldest account
My 12th Cake Day was last week, which is how I discovered I had the Reddit app still installed on a test device that was my daily-driver a few years ago
My account is 13, but lurked a bit before that. Never installed the official app. Used RES for desktop, and Boost for mobile.
My cake day was July 11 2011 so almost 12 years to the day when I left.
I don't know. How long ago was 2015? ... Shit I'm old.
14 years here. Really optimistic for lemmy given how good the app story has become so fast. Hoping the user base keeps growing so that more niche communities hit a critical mass here.
Yep 10+ and I left about a week after RIF went down and deleted my account about a week later. Haven't looked back.
13 years here. Spent a few years before that just lurking.
12 year old Reddit account here. Though, for every end there is a new beginning. Looking forward to seeing how Lemmy continues to grow. 🙂
12 years, deleted my account and overwrote all posts and comments I could before I did so.

almost 11 years and over half a million karma.
12 years here sounding off
I was there since 2010, then I got banned for getting into spats with fascists. Fuck’em all. Reddit sucks. Free speech my ass.
Digg refugee, so my reddit account is 13 years old.
I put in something like 11 years. It's kong enough to understand that platforms can and will die in 10+ years.
Exactly 10 years. Haven't visited Reddit since mid-june. I miss it? Yeah, but fuck Spez
10 years, 120k karma
The changes would have had no immediate affect on me, but it’s the mods that made the place useable. I just can’t see it working after alienating so many of the people wrangling content
However I also expected to be next on the chopping block. I prefer to use a web browser and the constant nag to use the app was getting irritating, and they seemed to be eating away at the old UI to push us to the fiasco that replaced it (it probably doesn’t help that I use Safari on iPad and their attempt to get fancy is less compatible)
Not quite there yet, but 8 years and left with Sync.
12 years here. Few thousand karma. Fuck the corporate shit.
I just googled it. Reddit was made in 2005. That means I must've started using it in 2007 or 8.
I think I had 9, but a year or two of lurking prior.
At least 15 years here
Me, the modding had become a real quagmire.
There since 2009. That's about when I started mainlining the internet. Glad to watch it burn here with all of you. Cheers!
My oldest account is just under 14 years old. I only visit to check on the status of my data download, and check on one sub once a month.
7 years, still there to moderate because only half of the community wanted to leave. But that's it, no more frontpage for me.
Almost 11 years with this username, a few years before that with another account that was linked to IRL stuff so decided to dedoxify myself.
I'm glad tbh - Reddit's been tailspinning as an experience since 2016 at least, it's just become much more aggressive about hating it's userbase and free labour recently.
10+ years, I had really started to generate content the last couple years, and will now forever be at 49.5k karma. I even used the shitty app, but left for good when spez started talking about admiring musk. He's an unredeemable prick.
13 years here. Not going back!
9 years on reddit. I didn't post a lot of content or comments but I read a lot. As soon as they killed 3rd party apps, I left. And switched to lemmy. I like it here. I think I already posted more comments here, than on reddit. I don't miss reddit at all.
