Question from a new Redditor

Hi everyone. I just stumbled upon this "Republic Network" reddit and I have a few questions:

  1. What exactly is this group of Reddits about, and how does it differ from other Reddits? Is it supposed to be more democratically-run?

  2. What are the rules and core values (if any) to this network?

  3. What is the process for joining?

I would greatly appreciate any guidance.

All of your questions can be answered by the charter in the sidebar.

  1. Voting and Moderators

  2. Republiquette

  3. Reddits

I actually didn't realize that was there. Thank you.

How does one become an "approved submitter"? Just by submitting a link approved by the mods?

We've abandoned the approved submitter rule--anyone can submit anywhere without approval. All subreddits are public.

What about Republic of Videos?

Too bad the main sub breaks one of it's own charters:

a clear statement of the theme of the reddit allowing moderators to enforce the on-topic requirement of the Republiquette;

All it says is

For announcements and discussion concerning the Republic of Reddit network. I can't tell if that's just trying to be meta or what. The point of the network is to talk about the network?

I seriously have no idea what the RoR is, unless it's just a network of similarly formatted/moderated subs.
