You Should Know
YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.
All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:
**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the 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 non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer 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.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
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- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

Excuse me, sub-what? ಠ_ಠ
are we at the 'shall not be named' phase?
We really shouldn't be. The more we say Reddit here the more likely the fediverse shows up in Google instead of reddit right? 😂
Good point!
No but vocabulary, understanding things, can be important. Instance and communities are names of the tool.
No wonder why there is debate to block thread or no...
I didn't mean to imply we couldn't say "Reddit," just to remind that Lemmy communities aren't called "subreddits."
I think, in this case, OP was trying to say that the site could help you find Lemmy communities based on the rules and topics of a subreddit, as the site lists Threadiverse communities (Lemmy and Kbin) and servers in messaging apps such as Discord and the Matrix network under the names of subreddits, like !196@lemmy.blahaj.zone under r/196
I meant this. Just thought it was easier vocabulary for those (including myself) who are brand new to the fediverse. In time it will change, but as of now I do still read communities as subreddits. 14 years there and only my 10th day here, but stoked to be here!
Ah, I understand, it's hard to get new terms into your system that quickly.
Just call it 'sub'
They have a name. They are called communities. A user subscribes to communities.
~~I always thought of it as Sub Rehabitation, like changing where the sub lives, and .rehab would be the closest TLD for it.~~
