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.
Yes, it only removes a piece of knowledge which could be helpful and save their time fixing bugs or trying out new things for thousands.
Yeah, the proper way is to become a place that can solve your niche questions so that reddit will eventually die. You don't have to "kill" it by changing your informative comments, help etc.
Nah buddy. The propper way is to abandon reddit with all of your data and go somewhere else. Maybe that somewhere else is Lemmy, although it probably won't be. By leaving your shit in, you generate clicks for their website, nothing more.
where exactly you will pass those answers for niche questions? unless someone creates a similar community in lemmy, it gains traction enough and someone asks same question? if that's the case, good luck for you, bad luck for that person who didn't make any mistake but wanted to find a fix, spez isnt the one who's going to be annoyed when you edit your comments, that stranger is going to be. let me know if any guys who edit their comments on reddit make and moderate similar communities here, i will be glad to be a member.
Okay then, why should I care about this niche information being on reddit? I want them gone. The comments that were made are made by me. I can do whatever I want with them.
i hope no one will be affected by your "niche and informative" comments being edited with "eat shit spez". have a nice day, and make lemmy or other forums that you find useful grow in an organic way.
Yeah, people will be affected. That's the point of deleting your comments from reddit.
but it's not gonna be spez or other reddit execs, the ones who are responsible for api changes but your average joe who just uses reddit to find answers to niche questions? anyways, idt you are gonna understand so it's useless to continue anyways. do what you want brotha. i doubt anyone will be affected by your informative comments being edited anyways.
And we are back to square one, and the protest that doesn't inconvenience anyone. It's you who doesn't understand. Reddit doesn't deserve being the site to go to for "niche info" and "troubleshooting". You know jack shit about me, yet you say "nobody is going to need them" without knowing what I do. Newsflash, robotics, CNCs, programming and a lot of shit you probably couldn't grasp.
then you prolly know how hard is to find some niche fixes that's not on stack overflow, their own forums, not even on some random chinese forums where you need to translate everything to understand it but unfortunately in some random archived post on reddit.
listen i am not pro reddit, if i was I won't be here. i could bring out other valid arguments but considering you are so adamant on things without trying to see on another perspective I can't continue this. It would have been even better if you did understand and tried to counter argument but even after multiple comments, you didn't. can't waste anymore energy.
if it doesn't try creating another place, not destroying the current one. create and moderate communities on lemmy that you are good at. make it grow, grow it big so people end up asking questions here instead of reddit so lemmy will slowly but surely become a place where people will find their answers for niche shit. that's the ideal way.
because all we wanted was to send message instead of trying to just destroy what people built?
we think alike but one is extremist and another one is pacifist.
