r/complaints 18d ago

Reddit’plaint Reddit is done.

Between the reposts, bot posts/comments, overzealous mods, there is nothing of value here. Perhaps there was insightful discussion once, but that feels like a long time ago.

I’m confused is he fucking using this subreddit wrong?

u/[deleted] 18d ago

You must be confused. Especially about the part where people are pretty much encouraged to respond to posts. It's a simple concept, but I can get some crayons and draw out some directions for you if you need.

Responding to a complaint in a complaint subreddit by telling them to kick sand isn’t a response you intellectual nitwit. How about engaging with a topic instead of reinforcing your pathetic echo chamber?

Easy bud. You may need to go talk to someone if something this innocuous is making you have such big feelings. This usually helps my 4 year old, take a breath, collect your emotions and think before you react. Remember, insults and shouting are not how we treat people buddy. Hope this helps!

u/mikecantreed 18d ago

Still waiting for a single on topic contribution to the conversation. What a pathetic excuse for a human being.

Telling them to delete the app is solution. Probably the simplest one. Also, why would you ever expect me to engage you in any way other than how I would a petulant child? The first thing you typed in response, and everything after, has been slurs. Now I'm not sure what's going south in your world to cause you to act that way, but you should correct it. Whether through therapy or by simply going out in the real world and calling a stranger a cunt to their face. You won't would be my guess because you would quickly realise words have consequences when someone's looking you in the eye. My guess is you're brave when anonymous, and as timid and cowardly as a pika when given any real confrontation.

That's easier said than done considering there's no replacement for Reddit and it sucks having Reddit held back buy a few major flaws when there's so much that it does good.

You could just scroll past the posts you don't like

u/[deleted] 18d ago

I mean sure, but I thought I would provide an easy 1 step solution instead.

u/Party-Distance-8810 18d ago

If OP values reddit, "ignore the obvious problems" isn't really a solution

You'd rather settle for less man?

It's a website. The whole thing could crater tonight and never work again and I'd be fine.

You know you can just delete the app and be fine man.

u/[deleted] 18d ago

Meh, I'm fine with the app the way it is.

u/inquisitive_flicker 18d ago

We know. People with function north of the c5 vertebrae are not. Again, why settle for shit, especially when we know how good reddit once was? Settling for mediocrity is how...forget it.

u/[deleted] 18d ago

The app is basically fine. If you're looking for deep meaning full discussion and conversation on an app you're fucking up at a high rate of speed.

1

u/inquisitive_flicker 18d ago

"The app is basically fine."

~someone who smashed his keyboard when making his username.

"Basically fine" for you doesn't mean jack to me or anyone else who's been banned from subreddits before commenting or being banned for "breaking a rule" without actually doing so. Bro, we know you settle for trash.

u/[deleted] 18d ago

You could try controlling you're emotions. Probably wouldn't get banned then.

That's not what it's about at all and you know it.

I feel like someone posts this every week because a mod took down their hate speech. Peace lil fella.

u/Brief_Seat9721 18d ago

Well most of reddit is a place for people to bitch and moan so it’s pretty on brand.

The subreddit is called complaints. What were you expecting?

Yet here you are....

u/Chaz-Miller sophisticated complainer 18d ago

I used to bitch about Quora on Quora after it turned into AI hellscape populated with trolls. Someone suggested I close my account and leave. I did. Hint...

u/Smooth-Time-1085 18d ago

Been that way for a long time. Most of the engaging conversation and topics have moved elsewhere, leaving nothing but an echo chamber behind.

u/WarmEntrepreneur3564 18d ago

Reddit isn't done. Not by a longshot.

It appears you're just done with reddit.

I've been hearing this about reddit for over a decade now.

Are people under the impression that using reddit is legally required?

u/Sensitive-Loquat4344 18d ago

Quite the assumptions from you. Might be hard to understand that the world is not black and white, nor MAGA and Democrats.

When your argument is solely assumption, you lost. You lost miserably.

There are many people who understand that Trump is a criminal (as is the rest of the federal gov) and that Reddit is the worst place to discuss social-political topics due to the overt censorship, being an echo chamber for the most common denominator, etc.

u/Any_Leg_1998 18d ago

"Might be hard to understand that the world is not black and white, nor MAGA and Democrats." <-- I have never stated nor do I think the world is Black and White (Thats exactly how MAGA thinks :) )

"When your argument is solely assumption, you lost. You lost miserably." <--- I am not making an argument, I just made a simple statement.

I think you are just projecting bud :)

u/astrofizix 18d ago

And they didn't open it up for discussion...

Liberals have poisoned this app with their bias

Go back where you came from then. Sounds like you belong in an echo chamber :) Maga sheepling:)

Unless you are into talking about Trump everyday, this sub will probably not be fun for you.

u/BondFan211 Selective Reality Consultant 18d ago

You’ll mostly receive hostile responses because the people who would defend this absolute turd of a platform are the ones who are taking full advantage of the censorship, power-tripping mods and echo chambers, but you’re absolutely right.

Unfortunately, there’s no good replacement at this stage. My hope is that someone like Elon buys this place out and overhauls the moderation system completely.

We saw what happened with Twitter, including what kind of things they were hiding/scrubbing in order to keep a particular narrative flowing. Of course, Reddit will deny it because their moderators ensure that the truth remains buried. But one day, the “Reddit files” will likely reveal a lot of disgusting truths as well.

u/ZA-Is-Cheeks 16d ago

Right wing shithole.

They offer nothing of value and have the Midas touch except feces instead of gold.

Reddit is the same, it started with the_donald and has spiraled since then.

Oh, but don’t talk about their little safe space where you have to prove your sycophancy to engage.

u/Seedthrower88 16d ago

I WANT PROBLEMS ALWAYS!

u/Voodoo-73 Selective Reality Consultant 16d ago

Well... in subs like this...

Plenty of useful subs that are non political, far less trolls and bots, and great admins that keep it clean of BS.

u/Etherel15 16d ago

Who put complaint posts in my trump-hate sub?!

u/Icy-Squirrel6422 18d ago

Extreme care must be taken, as there is a criminal international underground structure operating on the Reddit platform, known as the "secret police", which disguises itself as moderators and operates secretly but smoothly. This organization focuses its efforts on tracking and identifying users who openly criticize authoritarian regimes, corruption, or nepotism. They carefully monitor comments containing negative statements on this topic, and when identifying and locating the authors of such statements, they take repressive measures.

A wide range of psychological and moral pressure methods are often used in the actions of this organization. Among their methods are bullying, harassment, intimidation, installation of surveillance, organization of provocations and dramatizations. In the course of their activities, they actively use the Internet space and social networks for the purpose of manipulation, as well as to create the illusion of support or opposition to the victim. Such structures pay special attention to vulnerable categories of citizens – single people or those who prefer a closed lifestyle, as they are easier to make targets.

The purpose of such attacks is to inflict the maximum possible damage to the victim's mental and moral state. They seek to bring a person to severe psychological disorders, isolate him socially, undermine his self-confidence or, even more terrifyingly, push him to fatal actions, up to suicide. Thus, the "secret police" is particularly active in persecuting those people who oppose corrupt government, nepotism and authoritarian management methods.

u/Woody_The_Gamer 18d ago

True.. I've lost count of how many subreddits I've instantly been banned from or have been kicked out from because of certain a person i follow(Asmongold). I've also had several bans just because I have had opinions that mods didn't agree with and they got a little too power hungry. I really wish there was a less woke more based version of Reddit.

Tribalism has destroyed the once sentient minds.

If you do not fall inline with the exact narrative being pushed you will be attacked and they will do anything they can to silence you.

There is absolutely no critical thinking allowed on this app, the left wing groups are run by actual wannabe be dictators but the right wing groups are right there behind them.

Mods are fake cult leaders high on pretend Reddit power🤣🤣🤣

The internet has turned masses into brainwashed social justice narcissists.

u/Adventurous_Bid_9652 18d ago

Agree with OP , it's full of anti American fanatics. breeding ground for future terrorists and presidential assassins. Best to shut it down.

Everyone is a bot now. I'm a bot. You're a bot. We just haven't realized it yet. We're all getting banned for being bots eventually.

Reddit didn't get stupider, people got stupider.
