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.

**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 know! I feel the same way about American subs and American comments! No matter what the subject matter, no matter how interesting or even not interesting it is, most of the comments will be related to America! I wish there was some button to press that could purge all mentions of any said country, especially America. Yeah, we know you’re a racist fascist shithole, you always were, so well done for catching up with everyone else in realizing this, but I’m sick to death of reading about it. Give me some non-Yankee Doodle cats to watch!
Oh yeah? Well if you don't love America, you can just leave!
(Yeah, I know, but I just couldn't resist.)
So where are we supposed to go?
"We invented the internet after all. And that includes the fediverse."
Tim Berners-Lee invented HTTP, web servers and browsers, and is English.
Didn't he do it in CERN, an institution in switzerland?
Although ARPANET was started by the US?
Why yes! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Berners-Lee#Career_and_research
Yeah. The CIXP building in CERN has his original paper printed as a poster hanging in the doorway :-)
Dude has the most English sounding name ever.
I guess it bears pointing out, but still: whoosh! on you
On Voyager you can block instances, communities, users, posts and keywords from appearing. I recommend adding to the list every time a new intolerant prick starts stirring shit up.
And Reddit is a sinking, stinking corporate ship. Art is destroyed. Adults are alienated. Innocent folk are stripped of their rights to speak. There's nothing left for the community but fascists, conservatives and bot scripts.
This comment reminds me of that time my american ass and all my american family were in america and americad all over the place with how america we were.
Use filter words. Works well in the Boost app for Android. The more Ameeican specific words you add, the more American stuff you can get rid off (congress, MAGA, Elon, Trump, republicans, etc etc). Doesnt catch nearly all American stuff, but reduces it significantly.
