Reddit

Do not use reddit for military advice. This forum isn't military friendly and has many fake posts. Everything on there puts the military and any members down.

After being on this site for a while I see nothing of interest every time I go to log in its just the same thing same thing every time and rehashed posts from ages ago after a while I think is their Any thing on here too see?!

REDDIT is a constant financial and social danger to the free world. It must be BANNED, once and for all, in all nations of the industrialised world.

This app is awful. It's basically a place to go bash anything you want to and if your opinion disagrees with the moderators, they ban you. It's awful. Don't bother

We see those paid reviews, they aren't working. "reddit was never designed for 3rd party apps" then why do the third party apps work better than yours?

This website is amazing! Reddit is a community-based website where users can submit links, images, or even questions and stories to other users.

When I first saw it, I was going to pass it off as just another website where people post things like funny pictures or news article headlines. But what really got me hooked is how much power the community has over which links make it to the front page. Links can be upvoted all the way up to the front page or downvoted into obscurity. But that only the surface of the website. Most of the enjoyment comes from reading comments and user discussions that often stray hilariously off topic and contain multiple movie quotes and inside jokes.

Fascinated with the way the site works, I became a member and was even more amazed to discover how much the Reddit community really is... a community. Users rally to support each other, and even strangers, such as when one person found an invitation to a lonely old man's birthday party. The posting made the top of the front page and a large number of people sent cards and letters, wishing the 90 year old man happy birthday.

So, Reddit isn't just a website, or even a community. It might be at first, but eventually it will consume you, and you'll find yourself checking it multiple times a day, while at work, while at home, maybe even while you're eating dinner, because the internet is always changing, and you'll want to know what's new online.

The default subreddits are rubbish, most of the niche ones are rubbish, too many stalkers, not enough rules site-wide, not enough enforcing the rules, illegal behaviour is encouraged and protected, endless misogynist and racist users, site has actual Neo-Nazis in worldnews, people react with threats or looking for your personal info whenever you call out their bull$#*!. Reddit's admins care more about getting users to buy gold that making the site a place worth supporting. Easy to manipulate vote counts, have multiple alternate accounts to harass people with, easy to "squat" on subreddit names, can't delete subreddits, reports not taken seriously, hate communities not banned unless there's a flurry of media attention. If you're the sort of person who enoys 4chan/8chan and calling everyone libcucks, reddit's for you. Otherwise, just use individual forums or a site like linkibil.

I used it frequently for reviews in my area. It was helpful. After months of just looking, I signed up. Compared to twit and fb, it's great and I only had a couple of posts where I was called a name but I didn't report it... reddit allows it and for petty name calling, I left the users alone. It's a massive site and fairly well organized. But like any social media site, there are strange issues. The self-harm reporting, however, is too often used for "revenge" per those who have been reported.

I was reported for possible self-harm and fortunately, that's not true. I received an autobot response from Reddit saying I could respond with DONT (something like that - that would close the case). I was so angry that I explained what happened and found a page on reddit (after I trashed my account) that said people use that "reddit cares" option to get rid of the user. It worked with me and not others. So, I regret deleting my account.

I have political views for maintaining our democratic republic and there's no doubt one of the commenters decided to attack me indirectly.

In anger, due to the outrageous report, I "trashed" my account (I could've stayed on). I just want to caution others about this one feature. Use it with care. It's still a lot more sane than other social media sites.

Reddit is an often overlooked cesspool on the internet, but it's a dangerous site. There are people on there encouraging adults to give into their mental illness and wear adult diapers, live their lives as "animals trapped in the body of a human," and suicide subreddits where people actually encourage each other to commit suicide.

Twitter and Facebook get a lot of attention, but it's the anonymity of Reddit that makes it so dangerous. People go down a rabbit hole of mental illness together, and the site only moderates to keep their sicknesses thriving. The motto is "be respectful of..." someone who's killing themselves with drugs, someone who wants to kill themselves, someone who thinks they're an actual horse who was born in the wrong body.

I hope that in the coming years, the government will pay more attention to the pornography that's on Reddit and the disgusting Porn subreddits that anyone of any age can access. What's sickest of all is that they allow panhandlers and outright scammers to take advantage of their own community and will ban someone for outing a scammer but leave the scammer's account intact and preying on other people (even elderly people).

No self-respecting person would join most of these communities. They cloak the underground of the site with what looks like benign news posts and basic political debate. In reality, it's rife with mental illness, pornography, and barely-legal women trying to sell their pictures to old men. Government, do your job.

Social media sites are a dime a dozen. Reddit is one of the elder statesmen in this group. It is a big, dynamic site with tons of users, but they aren't very tolerant of differing opinions. Reddit's tolerant liberals are quite intolerant and downright bigoted towards older people and those of us who hail from the Southern United States.
Reddit suffers from the same biases and groupthink as most social media sites. It uses a "comment karma" system where popular posts are up-voted and unpopular posts are down-voted.
If you like what everybody else likes, and think like everyone else thinks, you're good. If you think differently, you'll be down voted mercilessly. It is that same dynamic that made middle school so obnoxious for most people.
Reddit has some great content, but you will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy among their user base.
If you use Reddit, pick your "communities" (areas of interest) and stay there. There are other users who are so obnoxious and petty, if you say something they object to, they will look up all of your posts, on any subject, and down vote them. DO NOT be slow to block the hard core a-holes.
Reddit is an interesting site, but its user base needs an enema.

I got banned multiple times from Reddit for insane reasons and now they won't let me use the website anymore.

These people literally banned me for insulting animal abusers and pedophiles selling horrible content via DM. They told me that I'm threatening violence and banned me PERMANENTLY. And that is not even the worst thing, they also banned MY IP FROM USING THE WEBSITE. Now when I create a new account it automatically get perma banned next day, so they basically prohibited me from using the whole website just because I was insulting literal criminals. Reddit admins and moderators are scumbags who enjoy power tripping by abusing users they don't like.

REDDIT SUCKS. If you have Reddit please delete your account, don't be part of this bull$#*!.

Powermods galore. By powermod i mean moderators who think they can win a argument by simply banning the other person from communicating with them. Reddit leans to an extremely left-wing stance. A case being the sad tale of r/CringeAnarchy. CringeAnarchy was a "subreddit" devoted to a right wing point of view, rather than conform to the rest of reddit. The subreddit was banned at 5 PM yesterday for "advocating and gloryifing violence"

I was an avid poster on that subreddit. There was no "advocating and gloryifing violence"

There was political wrongthink though.

I like Reddit it's a simple area to post content of all subjects from memes to horror stories from gaming to politics, there is something for everyone on Reddit
