I've visited this subreddit once for 20 secs and now it's all over my feed.
I like giving awards to people who are helpful and people who make me laugh etc.
I've just heard that it's not possible to buy coins any more.... How will the awards system work without coins to pay for them?
I've been using it as a mini library just because there's no good note-taking application.
Gmail kinda works, blablabla. I'm switching over to just writing in the terminal, where every new txt is almost like a new subreddit, I guess.
So what's the point of reddit?
What thr hrll?
In the last 2 weeks, there's been like 5 reddit accounts from onlyfans models following me. I don't participate in porn subreddits.
On various discussions, I see the topic has X number of comments (usually 1-4 or so). I click on the topic, but none of the comments show up. Instead, it says "no comments".
I have, of course, seen where comments have been deleted my a moderator with a mod note, or where comments are "collapsed" (mostly due to downvotes). But how and why do comments show as counted, but there is no sign of them in the thread?
This may be a weird one for this subreddit, but it keeps bothering me so here we go. I’ve been using Reddit for many years but still cannot figure out the upvote downvote function and fear I am using it incorrectly. I’ve asked a friend and his answer is basically that upvoting means you think more ppl should see it and downvoting means less ppl should see it. But I can’t get over feeling like upvoting is liking it and downvoting is disliking it creating a conundrum. For instance, another school shooting occurs. I don’t like this, of course, but I do think it should be seen more. Am I upvoting so more ppl see it or downvoting to express my displeasure in the content of the post? Please help me figure out what is going on with upvoting and downvoting so I can feel confident in what I’m doing! Side note, it’s sad to me school shooting was the first thing I thought of as an example…
Example: https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/12433je/deeply_distressed_elementary_school_student_being/?
Haven't checked for roofers and reefers
On the the iOS app, some of the subreddit names appear to be shortened with no apparent reason. For example 'r/movies' becomes 'r/...es'.
It doesn't appear to be any kind of censorship of offensive words and longer names appear in full so it's not a length issue.
Is it a bug?
i am not kidding i will update this with pictures when i can.
(this very post was made from an e-reader)
Didn't know where else to put this. I browse reddit exclusively on old reddit, don't care for new reddit. But there are some things that bug me that subs do with CSS, and while I like having nicely styled subs to browse, some of them push the boundaries.
For me, it's mostly /r/mildlyinfuriating. I get the joke ha ha lol you see the name of the sub is mildly infuriating - but once you're through laughing at the hilarity of it every time you go there, it just makes the sub difficult to read. CSS is also sometimes used for other little annoyances like hiding the upvotes/downvotes unless you're subscribed, etc.
So I made a little javascript bookmarklet to strip away all CSS that is added to any sub, leaving only the default reddit styling. Whenever you're annoyed by a sub's styling, you can just click the button and poof - it's gone. To bring it back, just click it again.
How to Create the Kill Reddit CSS Bookmarklet Button for your Toolbar
To create your button, just make a new bookmark. In the URL field, enter the following line of JavaScript:
javascript:(function(){x=0;s=document.styleSheets;for(const y of s){if(y.title==="applied_subreddit_stylesheet"){if(y.disabled!=true){y.disabled=true;}else{y.disabled=false;}}x++;}})();
Save the bookmark to your toolbar and give it a nice title like KILL REDDIT CSS and you're all set.
Hope this helps. If it stops working, check back here, I will update as needed.
Version | Revision |
---|---|
1.0 | original simple toggle off, refresh page to bring back |
1.1 | modified it so the button toggles between on and off. |
1.2 | the stylesheet's position can change, edited it to identify it by name before toggling |
We are trying to do ads in facebook but it says its restricted. Owner of account is a hs student, no valid id yet. Should we change the name to someone who has valid ID or create a new account?
Also, if the factory is in another country, but our target audience is global, for verification, can we use another country's ID and name and information to get verified?
Will it affect if we use different locations?
Please help!

I don't know who's great idea this was, but I can no longer see the previous comment when I get a reply.
Like the persons reply shows up, but I can't even see what I said to spark the reply. Its aggrevating as hell, particularly when you're like 5 comments in on a high-volume thread.
Ironically, I accidentally subscribed to r/justunsubscribed and my feed is now full of posts I'm not interested in.
I can see a list of all the subreddits I've subscribed to, but I can't find a way on the app to unsubscribe to any of them.
Some let me comment but only once. Others do not let me comment at all. It just says”sorry try again later”. Some pages I can post, others I cannot at all. I am so confused??
I've recently discovered that people are, to my eyes, abusing the dogshit ignore mechanic to suppress other users.
It seems that if I'm having a conversation with whoever, and someone jumps in to respond to me and then later ignores me... it prevents me from continuing on the conversation because I'm now blocked from replying to anyone below the ignorer.
Is this intended? It's only going to make the echo chambers worse as snow flakes discover they can abuse it to suppress the opinions of others.
Minimizing a comment only vibrates my phone if I try it from the top, near OP's name. If I do it from the text itself, it doesnt. Is this a bug or a feature?
I'm on android 11, reddit app ver 2022.22.0.
This post was removed off multiple subs, including r/help and r/modsupport.
Also, mods on that sub get paid a higher distribution of moons every month. One set of rules for the rest of Reddit, another for the mods of that sub? Posts highlighting this were also removed multiple times on subs that were run by or linked to said mods.
For those not aware, "moons" are cryptocurrency tokens that were made by and for that sub. Within reddit it has not much value and can be used only for tipping and buying awards. But people close to the mods have made online platforms where you can send the moons to and exchange them for cryptocurrency with real monetary value. That crypto can then be sold for money that can be credited to your bank account.
I commented on a thread in a Quarantined sub (I won’t say which, because I don’t even want to give them the exposure), but I didn’t realise this action would cause me to be banned from multiple unrelated subreddits!
Now I’m getting messages from multiple subs such as: r/aww and r/mildlyinteresting, etc. to say I have been permabanned from their subs for posting in the Quarantined subreddit!
I had no idea that an action such as commenting to counter an argument in a controversial subreddit would suddenly cause bans across the rest of Reddit! And I feel like there should have been more warnings to this end.
What really gets me, is I was commenting to counter misinformation. I know this was an automated bot action, and I have messaged the mods of these subs to try and get the ban lifted. But it feels like banning someone across the rest of Reddit will only prevent people commenting to counter disinformation in the future, and enhance the insular effects of certain groups that already have little to no people speaking out against them.
What do you guys think? Has anyone else been banned elsewhere for trying to speak up against disinformation?
What's up with inundating users with samsung ads. Every third "post" is a samsung ad. Makes me want to avoid samsung out of spite for ruining my experience of this site.
Dear all,
Using firefox i often find reddit to be sluggish, sometimes pasting text does not work when prepping a reply, and sometimes the editing window do not let me use backspace and so on, it's incredibly buggy. Anyone else having such experiences?
Ie - the web experience is overall rather buggy. Scrollback for chats do not work either.
WHY IS THIS EVEN A THING
Hopefully it wasn't intended
I can't believe that getting a bunch of downvotes in a short amount of time makes Reddit hit you that hard (and the funny thing, I don't get timeouts on other subreddits). Whyyyy. This is awful, it's so harsh :(
It's so stupid because I only got so many downvotes because a ton of people didn't think I was joking, I would guess at least the original commenter did get it, but a lot of people didn't, losing 150 karma in a day isn't a big deal BUT THIS? WHY!?!? It's not like I encouraged the killings of millions of people or something. Reddit let me in, I want to post! :(
I did expect people to downvote me for the comment I made prior to that one, people did. That one wasn't a joke, and it wasn't to disagree with the original comment, but it can be easily interpretred as that. I knew it before I made that comment, I don't really blame people for interpreting it that way.
LET ME IIIIINNNN
MY CLIPBOARD IS NOT GONNA LAST FOREVER
AAAAAAAAAAAA
Edit: Was this a bug? After the timer stopped resetting (it resets every time I make a new post on another sub), and the time passed, I was able to make posts on my profile with no restrictions.
Odd. I thought this was gonna last a whole day.
r/nonewnormal and now r/walkaway are just echo chambers of disgruntled people down voting any semblance of facts. They are hitting hot as well with their crazy theories.
