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.

So now that it's 100% clear that he has the hatred of the reddit community, he is in the perfect position to make all the changes no one asked for, and do what the board believes is necessary to fully monetize Reddit, and then get "sacked" with a nice and hefty severance package.

He played the part of fall guy perfectly. The "I adore Elon Musk" interview was the cherry on top.

[–] genoxidedev1@kbin.social 13 points 1 year ago (2 children)

That's what I thought for some time as well but I don't think the guy that has been there since the very beginning would be the fall guy. Maybe he's just that stupid.

[–] vmachiel@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

He could be if he wanted out anyway, and just wants that sack of cash.

Disregarding the current "fuck spez" thing, I'm kinda amazed people are not bored yet of bots drawing flags. r/place was only fun the first time around.

[–] Lazerbeams2@lemmy.world 35 points 1 year ago (2 children)

If you look between the seriously struggling Canadian flag and the big circle that says OSU! There's a carefully animated Bad Apple music video. It starts pretty much right away so it should be easy to keep track of

[–] synodic@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

That has to be the most creative thing I've seen on r/place since the first time around. Very cool!

Holy shit that's amazing

[–] DScratch@sh.itjust.works 29 points 1 year ago (3 children)

So obviously controlled by bots, what’s the point of it anymore?

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

It should have been one and done. I had some respect for the bot makers the first time around for writing the code and organizing people to make big things happen in such a short time but the second year of it had the majority of pixels placed by bots from the start.

I was following it closely the first year because I thought the whole thing was so cool. Pixel bot wars isn't very entertaining though...aside from FUCK SPEZ being so prominent

[–] weariedfae@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Some of the bot areas are even in the same spaces as last time :|

[–] Guildo@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Can somebody explaine me how bots work here, if anybody needs an account? I mean I understand that you can have many accounts, but how do bots work here exactly?

[–] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 12 points 1 year ago

If color(square[x,y]) != color(template[x,y]) then color(square[x,y]) = color(template[x,y]) else if x < max(x) then x = x+1 else x = min(x) and y = y+1 loop.

Something like this but better, with a lot of bots some of them would keep updating the same square, other would move to change other squares.

[–] hardypart@feddit.de 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

That ending. I'm truly amazed how people worked together here. Just wow.

[–] lazynooblet@lazysoci.al 10 points 1 year ago

Lol yeah I laughed out loud at the ending. The misses asked me what was funny and I just went quiet with "you won't understand", it was either that or I rant for 10 minutes and she starts thinking of divorce again.

[–] baked_tea@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Sorry to burst your bubble but it is scripted. Most of it all actually

[–] SCmSTR@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

Fuck Steve Hoffman
Fuck spez

[–] johnthedoe@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

It definitely didn't look as active and fast paced to me compared to last time. Still goes to show the majority are still enjoying Reddit and that's fine I guess

[–] Clbull@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I don't see Spez remaining as CEO in the next six months. The moment Lemmy gets an app that isn't complete dogshit, many will flock here.

[–] Wooly@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Unfortunately, that's really not how it works. The masses don't care. Just like Netflix profits increased after the crackdown, most people just use the Reddit app and don't give a fuck.

Tbh, with how small lemmy is, it's really not got much draw for most people. I still miss the long conversations and multiple comments. I've only seen like 50 comments on here at best.

[–] bstix@feddit.dk 2 points 1 year ago

Most of the Lemmy apps are better than the official Reddit app. For Android I'd Currently recommend Connect or Voyager. Both are fine. Connect is more advanced, and it took me a while to customize it to my liking. Voyager is more simple. Coming from RiF, I'm really impressed with both, because not only do they do exactly what I expect, but they even do it better.
