About Us

RULES

1) Not derp Don't forget, though most Derps are incredibly r/aww, a lot of Awws aren't Derps. Pictures/gifs/videos should be easily discernible as "Derpy", and removals are up to mod discretion. Animals just existing, or not doing anything, or otherwise engaging in normal animal behaviour will be removed. Do not post images with superimposed text adding context for the ‘derp’ to be understood. Your post should be able to stand on its own without help from the title or additional text

2) No compilations or memes No compilation videos, gifs, pictures, etc. No memes or comics

3) No NSFW No NSFW content allowed. Posting NSFW content is grounds for being banned without warning. This includes comments, posts and title. Linking to NSFW subreddits is never allowed. Warning others that a post or comment is NSFW is not an excuse for violating this rule. Do not add the NSFW as clickbait, misuse of the the NSFW tag is prohibited

4) No reposts Reposts will be removed at mod discretion. Repost farming is not allowed and will result in a ban

5) No derp injury Do not post animals that are injured, suffering or appear to be uncomfortable

6) No staged submissions No staged submissions, no provoking animals to do something derpy or setting up a scene for an animal to do something cute or quirky. No photoshopped images or manipulated videos. No TikTok trends or challenges. A human playing with their pet is considered staged and not derp

7) No links to social media, post direct links only No links to Facebook, Instagram, TikTok or Twitter, Imgur Gallery. Use direct links only for images and videos

8) No comments supporting killing, eating or harming animals, no breed hate Threats or denigration towards any living being are not allowed and may result in a ban. Do not joke about eating animals or share your views on eating animals. No breed hate

9) No hate speech, personal attacks or insults Hate speech, personal attacks or insults will not be tolerated. Do not use condescending or patronizing language, or resort to name calling. Violators of this rule may be banned without warning

10) No spam Original content and crossposts from other subreddits are welcome, but please, no spam. This means no posts promoting a specific website, YouTube channel, blog, artwork, subreddit etc. GoFundMe requests or petitions are not allowed. Users violating this rule will be banned

11) No Sad Content This includes mourning posts, or mentions of death in the title (ie. RIP), or animals being put to sleep. (try r/petloss)

This subreddit will be joining in on the June 12th-14th protest of reddit's API changes that will essentially kill all 3rd party Reddit apps.

What's going on?

A recent reddit policy change threatens to kill many beloved third-party mobile apps, making a great many quality-of-life features not seen in the official mobile app permanently inaccessible to users.

On May 31, 2023, reddit announced they were raising the price to make calls to their API from being free to a level that will kill every third party app on reddit, from Apollo to reddit is Fun to Narwhal to BaconReader.

Even if you're not a mobile user and don't use any of those apps, this is a step toward killing other ways of customizing Reddit, such as Reddit Enhancement Suite or the use of the old.reddit.com desktop interface .

This isn't only a problem on the user level: many subreddit moderators depend on tools only available outside the official app to keep their communities on-topic and spam-free. What's the plan?

On June 12th, many subreddits will be going dark to protest this policy. Some will return after 48 hours: others will go away permanently unless the issue is adequately addressed, since many moderators aren't able to put in the work they do with the poor tools available through the official app. This isn't something any of us do lightly: we do what we do because we love Reddit, and we truly believe this change will make it impossible to keep doing what we love.

The two-day blackout isn't the goal, and it isn't the end. Should things reach the 14th with no sign of Reddit choosing to fix what they've broken, we'll use the community and buzz we've built between then and now as a tool for further action. What can you do as a user?

Complain. Message the mods of /r/reddit.com, who are the admins of the site: message /u/reddit

: submit a support request: comment in relevant threads on /r/reddit, such as this one, leave a negative review on their official iOS or Android app- and sign your username in support to this post.

Spread the word. Rabble-rouse on related subreddits. Meme it up, make it spicy. Bitch about it to your cat. Suggest anyone you know who moderates a subreddit join the coordinated mod effort at /r/ModCoord.

Boycott and spread the word...to reddit's competition! Stay off reddit entirely on June 12th through the 13th- instead, take to your favorite non-reddit platform of choice and make some noise in support!

Don't be a jerk. As upsetting this may be, threats, profanity and vandalism will be worse than useless in getting people on our side. Please make every effort to be as restrained, polite, reasonable and law-abiding as possible.

What can you do as a moderator?

Join the coordinated effort over at /r/ModCoord

Make a sticky post showing your support, A template has been created here you can use or modify to your liking, and be sure to crosspost it to /r/ModCoord.

Thank you for your patience in the matter,

-Mod Team
