That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

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.

It's positively maddening. Especially since that Spez has turned Reddit into a walled garden experience now, I no longer want to rely on Reddit for answers. Google is just a mess of garbage blogs full of link rotted 'answers'.
I no longer used reddit daily. But I still use it (without an account) mainly for research. Reddit no longer exists. It's just a databse of answers like stack overflow to me.
Interestingly I even relay even less and less on searching reddit through google. I use bing ai and bardai since their dataset upadates daily.
I don't have access to Bard (Canada) and I don't use Bing nor Edge, but ChatGPT is usually pretty good at telling me what to look for or giving me an answer that's close to the real thing or has the right keywords. However, it's really often just wrong enough that people replacing a search engine with it and use it for information is kind of worrying...
