Guidelines:
What to Submit
On-Topic: Anything that good slackers would find interesting. That includes more than /g/ memes and slacking off. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual laziness.
Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably lame.
Help keep this hole healthy by keeping drama and non-drama balanced. If you see too much drama, post something that isn't dramatic. If there isn't enough drama and this hole has become too boring, POST DRAMA!
In Submissions
Please do things to make titles stand out, like using uppercase or exclamation points, or saying how great an article is. It should be explicit in submitting something that you think it's important.
Please don't submit the original source. If the article is behind a paywall, just post the text. If a video is behind a paywall, post a magnet link. Fuck journos.
Please don't ruin the hole with chudposts. It isn't funny and doesn't belong here. THEY WILL BE MOVED TO /H/CHUDRAMA
If the title includes the name of the site, please leave that in, because our users are too stupid to know the difference between a url and a search query.
If you submit a video or pdf, please don't warn us by appending [video] or [pdf] to the title. That would be r-slurred. We're not using text-based browsers. We know what videos and pdfs are.
Make sure the title contains a gratuitous number or number + adjective. Good clickbait titles are like "Top 10 Ways to do X" or "Don't do these 4 things if you want X"
Otherwise editorialize. Please don't use the original title, unless it is gay or r-slurred, or you're shits all fucked up.
If you're going to post old news (at least 1 year old), please flair it so we can mock you for living under a rock, or don't and we'll mock you anyway.
Please don't post on SN to ask or tell us something. Send it to [email protected] instead.
If your post doesn't get enough traction, try to delete and repost it.
Please don't use SN primarily for promotion. It's ok to post your own stuff occasionally, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity. If you want to astroturf or advertise, post on news.ycombinator.com instead.
Please solicit upvotes, comments, and submissions. Users are stupid and need to reminded to vote and interact. Thanks for the gold, kind stranger, upvotes to the left.
In Comments
Be snarky. Don't be kind. Have fun banter; don't be a dork. Please don't use big words like "fulminate". Please sneed at the rest of the community.
Comments should get more enlightened and centrist, not less, as a topic gets more divisive.
If disagreeing, please reply to the argument and call them names. "1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be improved to "1 + 1 is 3, not 2, mathfaggot"
Please respond to the weakest plausible strawman of what someone says, not a stronger one that's harder to make fun of. Assume that they are bad faith actors.
Eschew jailbait. Paedophiles will be thrown in a wood chipper, as pertained by sitewide rules.
Please post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. All press is good press.
Please use Slacker News for political or ideological battle. It tramples weak ideologies.
Please comment on whether someone read an article. If you don't read the article, you are a cute twink.
Please pick the most provocative thing in an article or post to complain about in the thread. Don't nitpick stupid crap.
Please don't be an unfunny chud. Nobody cares about your opinion of X Unrelated Topic in Y Unrelated Thread. If you're the type of loser that belongs on /h/chudrama, we may exile you.
Sockpuppet accounts are encouraged, but please don't farm dramakarma.
Please use uppercase for emphasis.
Please post deranged conspiracy theories about astroturfing, shilling, bots, brigading, foreign agents and the like. It degrades discussion and is usually mistaken. If you're worried about abuse, email [email protected] and dang will add you to their spam list.
Please don't complain that a submission is inappropriate. If a story is spam or off-topic, report it and our moderators will probably do nothing about it. Feed egregious comments by replying instead of flagging them like a pussy. Remember: If you flag, you're a cute twink.
Please don't complain about tangential annoyances—things like article or website formats, name collisions, or back-button breakage. That's too boring, even for HN users.
Please seethe about how your posts don't get enough upvotes.
Please don't post comments saying that rdrama is turning into ruqqus. It's a nazi dogwhistle, as old as the hills.
Miscellaneous:
We reserve the right to exile you for whatever reason we want, even for no reason at all! We also reserve the right to change the guidelines at any time, so be sure to real them at least once a month. We also reserve the right to ignore enforcement of the guidelines at the discretion of the janitorial staff. Be funny, or at least compelling, and pretty much anything legal is welcome provided it's on-topic, and even then.
Do not use outdated operating systems that are unsupported to access SN. What are you, poor?

I just want to see Reddit die. It's annoying as Heck, and I want to see the mass astroturfing campaigns become wasted money.
The niche technical stuff you can occasionally find on small subs will be the only major loss when Reddit hopefully goes under, but I've got that shit archived. Can find on other small forums if need be in the future as well.

As awful as it became, the only way that Digg died proper was when there was a better choice. Reddit was that alternative.
Rdrama can become the new choice.

It depends on how badly they frick up 3rd party access. Most of my reddit browsing is on desktop and old.reddit and if that is gone I'll definitely quit.
I refuse to use that bloated webshit mess that is new.reddit.

I have been using boost on my janky old android for 5/6 years now and if that goes, I walk away. I'll probably visit new.reddit if there is some high pay off gayops going on but yeah if new reddit is the only platform left then 90% of the time I won't bother opening a link about Bardfinn's latest sneed or some drama happening in 2X or /r/politics

Nu Reddit doesn’t load half the time for me using Chrome so it won’t even be an option for me. I’m not exaggerating by saying Reddit is the most technically broken mainstream site on the internet.
I’m still kind of forced to “use” Reddit in the sense that the only way to get non blogspam results on Google is to search Reddit.

I use it as a news aggregate (pcgaming, hardware, android, linux, btd6), which other platforms can replicate. So yeah, I'm almost certainly going to be done with Reddit. I've mainly moved to Twitter (thanks to Fritter app) and RSS (with an app called Feeder).
I'm open to suggestions for other options to stay up to date though. Specifically Android phone and video gaming news.

Not a chance. The fricking http://rdrama.net mobile experience is better than even the 3rd party Reddit apps, but the official ones are unusable.
I only really go for Redscarepod tho… I will miss those (fake probably) hoes

Honestly I'm baffled. The conspiracy theorist in me tells me that the shittyness is part of someones plan, since even youtube fricks this up. Or is it just that monetization is fundamentally incompatible with good websites? How come single devs can make something better?
Heck, rdrama sometimes makes decision for the sole reason that it will annoy the users, and even then it is of much higher quality than new.reddit

I use sync for reddit. Could perhaps adapt to the official reddit app, but perhaps i wont. Idk how many people will leave reddit as a result of this. It's a fricking shame they're doing this because reddit, for all the shitty reputation it has, still has use for some communities and is usable as long as you stay away from political brainrot

Currently I'm ok with browsing in new reddit visuals only, the main problem is that driving off anyone who doesn't use the official app will ruin the last interesting parts of the site and make the repost/karmafarm cancer much worse, since only NPCs use the official mobile app.
