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.

“fuck u/spez” means absolutely nothing to anyone who isn’t familiar with Reddit, it’s just noise.

“FIRE STEVE HUFFMAN” is a clear, actionable statement that has a clear target and goal and actually has meaning to people who don’t know what Reddit is (like say, a potential shareholder or investor)

Idk where to put this since r/savethirdpartyapps got banned so post this wherever will get noise if you agree

Reddit is rotten to the core, the CEO is just to puppet in front of it all.

Replace the CEO and nothing will change as long as there are investors looking to make a profit.

To be fair, no one should fuck Spez, or do anything that would even temporarily improve the quality of his life.

[–] Fuck_u_spez_@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

He needs to get fucked, though, just not by another person.

But the people familiar with Reddit vastly out number the others that matter though?

We don’t need other people knowing who Huffman is, we need more redditors aware of what’s going on.

Fighting the wrong fight my friend.

[–] Usernameblankface@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I haven't seen the point of saying anything against the face of a group of people who are only interested in milking all the money they can out of reddit. It's just an expression of anger.

I have much more appreciation for "so long, and thanks for all the fish"

[–] lohrun@fediverse.boo 2 points 1 year ago

Or create more comment and repost bots to dilute the content even further, sure initially it’ll look like increased real engagement but it would drive more power users and content creators away

[–] c0c0c0@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Is this the right place? I feel like most of us in the fediverse are past "fixing" Reddit and are now just gleefully watching it burn.

r/SaveThirdPartyApps got banned?? When did this happen? What was the reason?

[–] lemmony@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Dunno but apparently r/save3rdpartyapps (number 3) is still there according to another commenter

[–] Darkassassin07@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Wait... I thought we were trying to get Huffman some bitches??

Cmon ladies 'Fuck Spez'.

Seems like a popular fellow, what's the issue?

[–] bownt@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

do not tell me how to live my life

[–] gon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I thought his first name was Fart?

[–] LazerDickMcCheese@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (4 children)

I think everyone would be better off ignoring Reddit and its staff completely. We can build a better Reddit 2.0, and it wouldn't even take a lot of effort. The last year or two of Reddit (from my perspective) was lackluster content from niche communities becoming unbearably toxic anyway.

Fuck spez is also an actionable statement tho:)

[–] n00dl3@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why would he fire himself?

[–] Beaupedia@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

He wouldn't, the board fires a CEO.

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

How about "Not My King", "I Stand with the Landed Gentry", or "Down With King Steven the Turd"

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

why compare him to a king at all?

[–] dhork@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

He started with the Landed Gentry nonsense. You don't get a Gentry without a system of Nobles and a King.

Besides, he's acting the part.
