Also, please no "tHiS iS eNgAgEmEnT fOr rEdDiT" comments. Would you rather have no such banner? As I'm not pushing anyone to become a long-term active user on Reddit, I don't see any benefit for the company from this. If you have a spare account, this may be a good cause to fire it up for a few hours.

For anyone concerned about traffic to reddit, the absolute best thing you can do is find ads next to "offensive" content and e-mail the CEOs and marketing departments of those companies saying you won't use those products due to their ad placement on reddit. Literally nothing else will hurt them faster.

[-] somethingsnappy@lemmy.world 28 points 1 year ago

I'm fairly sure leaving the platform will hurt more. I left June 30th. Haven't looked back.

[-] morrowind@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

If you use an ad blocker and don't buy premium then reddit doesn't benefit from you outside of any content you post

[-] TheGreenGolem@lemm.ee 13 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

You increase the daily/monthly active users count if they count only visiting people as well. Only by 1, but still. If they are using that number in any kind of negotiation with other companies to persuade them to do business with them (ad-related or otherwise), you probably wouldn't want to increase that number.
Not much, but it's honest work.

Edit: I'm not talking about this message in r/place in particular. I think this is awesome!

[-] mojo@lemm.ee 85 points 1 year ago

Wow, we were allowed a few pixels for a few minutes, granted by our corporate overlords whom valiantly watch over every pixel to ensure they get the maximum IPO value! Just kidding, the bots decided to make it another flag or osu image or some stupid shit.

[-] genoxidedev1@kbin.social 35 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

The message has been there since day 1 surprisingly they haven't tried censoring it yet.

edit: sorry should have fact checked it's being overwritten by shitstains with some W1 poster whatever thats supposed to be (bots of course)

Nobody will come to lemmy if they don't know it exists so it's worth it even if it gives reddit so engagement

[-] oryx@lemmy.world 56 points 1 year ago

Love that our text has anti-aliasing lol

[-] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yeah, it also kinda helps against vandalism: our lone 3x5 A has not been amogussed once AFAIK. I also helped design the Horalky wafer for Slovakia.

Sadly this message is already being overwritten by bots

Edit: the message about 3rd party apps is also being overwritten

[-] hoodatninja@kbin.social 35 points 1 year ago

Luckily the group doing the message about third-party apps is very coordinated so they have so far been able to protect it for a few days now

[-] dhork@lemmy.world 43 points 1 year ago

So it didn't take long for Reddit to turn into bots interacting with other bots

Not a theory anymore. It's becoming a real life experiment at this point.

[-] Lakija@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

That is spooky. Of course I had to go look it up. Contrary to that first part of the Wikipedia page, this is no longer conspiracy. It’s becoming the reality.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_Internet_theory

That’s Reddit for real now. Especially with the rise of AI and similar

[-] torafugu@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Reddit is Deaddit.

[-] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I was going to ask if anyone was using bots to keep their messages up. That's cool!

[-] fne8w2ah@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago

Spez ist ein hurensohn!

[-] genoxidedev1@kbin.social 18 points 1 year ago

I'm using the script now thanks for sharing is it only for the join-lemmy message?

I'm just not interested in Reddit anymore. Haven't logged in since July 1st. Deleted the app and, I'm just lurking to see how this shitshow will end up. My 2 cents is that Reddit will gradually fall since a lot of the content creators, moderators and engaged people have left and a lot more will leave. It will take a lot of time but it will.

[-] GenBlob@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

Great work guys. Now let's keep lemmy on there

[-] i_ben_fine@lemmy.one 13 points 1 year ago

You can tell reddit sucks now cuz r/place doesn't have gay and trans rainbows shooting all over

[-] Jcb2016@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 year ago

Hehehe, This is amazing!

[-] joshhsoj1902@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 year ago

I actually feel a little sad seeing the BaconReader logo there. I had been using it for so long, and for the last 4 or so years it was the only way I used Reddit.

When I signed out of BaconReader that was the only place I was signed in, and I was pretty sad when I uninstalled it. Seeing the logo there brought that emotion back.

[-] AlexWIWA@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

I honestly kinda don't want the general population of Reddit to join. I like that this place feels like pre-redesign Reddit.

The culture of the community massively started shifting around the time Alien Blue got bought out.

[-] dullbananas@lemmy.ca 40 points 1 year ago

Everyone deserves to be able to find salvation from Reddit

[-] AlexWIWA@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 year ago

Yeah you're right

[-] overlyanxious@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 year ago

eh maybe, I thought each server would have it's own little community culture unlike reddit. if you want to see less people and enjoy a more specific culture you could join a server akin to what u want, was hoping it'd be less one place than the many interterting places i was sold

[-] AlexWIWA@lemmy.ml 16 points 1 year ago

Federation makes it feel like one big site. I'm not saying I want to exclude people though. I just selfishly like the vibe right now

Who fucks a pez?

[-] Hillinthemtns@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Just signed up because of the banner. However…its got “.org” at the end currently. I’ll commit to helping keep it correct then swear off Reddit.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

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.
