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.

"Social" media is dying, these 2 or so generations will be looked upon partly curious partly estranged in the future, I'd like to believe things regulate themselves through chaos. And I'm curious how and to what it will transform. Too slow, so much is certain. It's all so painfully slow until the celebrity voyeurs and TV substituters get it at last.
You've never heard of Tiktok?
Have you seen the quality of content on Tiktok?
No, because I don't have a Tiktok, but I've heard how shit it is. The point is that people aren't using less social media, they're using more. They just migrated to new ones. It doesn't seem to be dying any time soon.
The trend I've read recently is that most people are moving to more private social media (private discord servers for example) and it looks like federation might be gaining some popularity with large social media companies, which I remain cautiously optimistic about
Yeah, there's plenty of good stuff there.
