Rules

  • GTA gifs and other video game / cartoon gifs are not allowed. Only submit live-action gifs that are converted to wasted gifs.

  • Submit converted gifs only... for requests, check out /r/WastedGifRequests.

  • Please try to avoid reposts. Reposts of recently submitted gifs or consistently reposted gifs will be removed.

  • Only gifs containing people (or animals) actually being "wasted" are permitted. "Wasted" means that they fall over and (at least through editing) must stay on the ground, or out of sight through the remainder of the gif. Gifs containing a person/animal who remains on their feet will be removed by the moderators.

  • Wasted gifs that are made by using wasted gif maker sites will be removed.

  • NSFW content should be tagged as such. Please, no overly-graphic content like porn, gore or death. Moderators will remove inappropriate submissions at their discretion.

  • There's a spoiler tag available under the 'flair' option, use it. If your post contains anything from a show or movie that could potentially spoil it for others, use this tag.

The mod team may remove posts/comments at their own discretion to maintain sub wellbeing.

r/WastedGifs 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
