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.

MODERATORS
It’s an ugly mix of bots, foriegn influence campaign supported keyboard warriors, and poor humans caught in the middle of it
I'm not sure there's any way to tell.
The bots can pass a turing test, now.
I figure at some point it'll just be one random dude talking to bot shadows of themself.
You are bot? Because clearly I am not.
Bot or not the quality can't get any lower
I guess after you permanently ban all your users the party ends.
Post has since then been removed
I made a sub that got popular (in its niche). Good people. Little drama. Productive everything. For like 4 years. Then suddenly it's dying. Posts have dropped to 5% prior. I see no leeching competitors. I'm thinking maybe something deep is happening to reddit. Like organ failure. Or brain parasite.
Have you considered opening a community here, and pointing to it from your sub?
Ya, I've considered it. My enthusiasm ain't there anymore tho. There are members way more enthusiastic than me. I assume that they are aware of Lemmy. I'll mention it to them. They have a discord too.
It's generative art. That's the subject. A population of good prometheuses. /r/generative
Makes sense, enthusiasm comes and goes. Well done for building that community
