    Reddit is becoming typically right wing where they allow people to discuss various topics as long as their answers don’t disagree with their political leanings

      I don’t think it’s long before it dies off and goes the way of Facebook. It’ll have users sure, but it will be long past producing any content worthwhile

        Nah, they will keep the corpse alive and possibly even more thriving (at least to the shareholders) with bot accounts. It is quite clear that a shitload of AI bots are being tested out in various subs at the moment.

        Edit: An example of such an AI bot.

      Where presumably it will be perfectly OK, putting the boot on the other foot so to speak, to discuss making Scotland part of England.

    With all those banned keywords, is it possible to post anything at all anymore?

    The r/AskBrits subreddit on Reddit has banned users from all “anti-British sentiment”.

      Askbrits 62k members.

      Askuk 2milion members.

      I got banned from the latter because of their stupid absolutely no politics rule. Lots of questions can’t be answered without it being down to politics.

    Is this even „news” in the literal sense? The bigger subreddit seems to be r/AskUK, anyway, and they don’t have this petty rule (62 thousand vs. 2 million).

    But yeah, really petty indeed.

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.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.
