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:
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.
THEN WHY ARE YOU STILL USING REDDIT?!
And worse of all, using the official Reddit client... ugh...
Are there still any other options?
Old.reddit on browser. Or redreader
I personally use rdx.overdevs.com. It's UI is absolutely fantastic. It's read-only, but that's perfect because I've resolved to never post there again
If you like read-only, can I recommend Stealth?
oh cool, i didn't know about it! Is there a way to customise your feed and subscribe to certain subs in Stealth?
Revanced 3rd party apps
I use it because there are two communities I still want to see, one is a kebble sub, and the other has torrents which are easier to find than going to a torrent site.
I was part of several kebble subs, but when the APIcalypse happened, I decided it was time to let go of all of it.
Because lemmy isn’t nearly as large as reddit and most of the communities I’m in are barely (if at all) active on lemmy
Be the change you want to see in the world. I loved r/writingprompts, and the one on Lemmy is practically dead except for me posting a prompt about every day or so. I've been tossing memes from my collection into different communities just to get content out there too.
He is obviously using both reddit and lemmy. Just because he stops using reddit it wont make the topics he follows on lemmy magically active.
Anyone who still uses the official reddit app at this point is just unsaveable
Yeah seriously, OP; WTF.
EDIT: Relay still works. If you have to use a reddit app, use that.
Redreader works as well due to the disability exemption.
Fucking assholes. Even Twitter lets you see your inbox with notifications.
Musk, observing from the corner: "write that down, WRITE THAT DOWN'
What if I told you you didn't have to use reddit?
Fuck spez.
I urge everyone to accept this, then flag every email as spam and just have it move to junk, that's what I do on sites that enable predatory things with email
lmao that’s a good idea.
Or just block the whole email address
I report it/flag it as it can blacklist the domain server side due to reports
I stg Reddit is turning into xitter, feels like there are way more bigots and edgy racists, lgbt hate etc.
Fucking disgusting
if you have the same thread across two subreddits, the comments just repeat, lol, clesrly botting going on.
was looking at a goal thread /r/reddevils same top comments verbatim in the /r/soccer thread
I'm still adjusting to lemmy where very few people are trying to be edge lords. It keeps surprising me to read through the comments on a controversial topic and there's only a few of them, and they're always very heavily down voted.
"stg"?
I think it means Swear To God
That makes sense in context. Thanks, friend.
enshitification intensifies
This might be a server side error, actually. Here’s a comment from someone on r/redditmobile:
“For me, it displays the “no notifications” prompt. I think there is a server/app error that is causing notifications to not display. The “enable notifications and email” pop ups that occur when checking the activity screen might display instead of the “no notifications” box might appear if you do not have them enabled.”
Haha. Anyone staying there at this point is getting what they deserve.
Here’s come another wave of Reddit refugees.
I can’t believe people on here use the official Reddit app that’s beyond trash. I visit Reddit once a week and it’s to the “old” subdomain with an adblocker.
Stop rewarding corporations for their piss poor behavior and decisions.
It sucked before too. Certain types of notification were only viewable in the app. If you had one, it would give you an orange envelope on the mobile site, but nothing new could be seen inside. And it wouldn't even tell you what's happening so I just wrote off the entire notification system as broken. So if I got a reply on Reddit I wouldn't know because there's no indication. I still won't ever install the app and I'm now less likely to do so because I hate push notifications.
this is the problem with putting a dying star at the center of social media. It's like a white dwarf, heading for a black hole. That's physics. It's inevitable. And then we, the audience, we get sucked into that black hole. Are you with me? And the only way to stop it is to not put a dying star in the center of social media. Now, reddit is a dying star, a supernova. And when it explodes, It will have amounted to nothing
It amazes me that people still use that horrible app, while authors just constantly fuck users, and make their experience utter shit, while showing a fuckton of ads.
Re*dit moment
Rexxit.
