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.

At 8 years young I am way short of the long term Reddit membership criteria, but don't think that is really important, rather what matters are the reasons creating Reddit refugees and how they transition.
Personally I am transitioning away from Reddit as organisational goals are, in my view, trampling the community foundation of Reddit.
My personal transition to the Fediverse is not friction-less, and there are new community norms and tools to be aware of. In my case I have reverted to RSS to monitor key Reddit subreddits, where the fediverse does not yet have the critical informational mass, have started posting to the fediverse, and already learned new stuff such as there being different tools and expectations when it comes to things such as cross-posting.
Like others have said I encourage patience when it comes to Reddit refugees such as myself, encouraging rather than denigrating our ignorance when it comet to getting to grips with the fediverse, and all of its differences and tools. We will all be stronger for that in the long run!
