Ask HN: Where do you browse and chat outside of here? (ycombinator.com)
I used to really enjoy reddit but find it toxic and too “mainstream” recently so I moved to Lemmy but it’s quiet and kept a lot of redditism. I’ve been enjoying reading HN daily but want to read more than 20-30 top posts. I like the general kind attitude and professionalism as well as the interesting topics.

Why is there so much [deleted] on Reddit, they clearly didn't delete themselves? (ycombinator.com)
I can't ask this question on Reddit, because I have serious suspicions and the moderators banned me for fun when I registered on my LanskoyK account. If you open these questions on the Internet by searching on Reddit itself, the main answers are deleted along with the users, it's the same in politics, and not only there.

Warning users that upvote violent content on Reddit (reddit.com)
Today we are rolling out a new (sort of) enforcement action across the site. Historically, the only person actioned for posting violating content was the user who posted the content. The Reddit ecosystem relies on engaged users to downvote bad content and report potentially violative content. This not only minimizes the distribution of the bad content, but it also ensures that the bad content is more likely to be removed.
