FPSpsycho (@FPSpsychoYT) reported@UnkindledAsh_OW @FlawlessTrickss Yeah from browsing Reddit briefly it looks like a very new issue in the last few months, which sucks so much because I HATE stuff like this. Thank you for all the tips! I'll make another post if I manage to fix it.

Seeker (@ULeonaid60840) reported@Libansthoughts we have to continue, erens fans can shut down but naruto fans don't, go to reddit, they still okay with itachi killing everyone aka genocide from particular bloodline
-
Buggy (@JuicyCroissants) reported@xo_ollievurr don't do PayPal. Especially if you do NSFW comms bc they shut that **** down like Negan. Ask Reddit if nothing else

mikchaelvratetbel (@WillyDiBa7) reported@alec_cardinale @Dungeon_Bastard @KILLTOPARTY If this entire chain is true (probably a coin flip at best with Reddit) then he’s clearly untrustworthy lol. I’ve broken up with multiple girls over similar ****. You can’t go MIA for 12+ hours without a word when you have a committed partner. Period.

Dani. (@Danizeh) reportedI said the same thing not too long ago; I have solved more health issues with Claude + Reddit than speaking to doctors. They're a waste of time because a lot of them either have no idea what they're doing, use Google, or make you revisit multiple times just to farm money of you.

skoolkidd (@chainrunner__) reportedreddit is a place full of sick, sick people a place where both the people making posts and those replying to it are sick, no matter how many upvotes they get a place where people present their own problems like its a general symptom of society's downfall glad i quit long ago

Carol Durant (@CathyM19988) reported@spiderlou2099 I tried to post this on the Stern Reddit and the mods shut me down.

Shiben Bhattacharjee (@shibentech) reported@ihailmyindia A good intention colleague of mine, spends a lot of time on Reddit, one day randomly claimed “govt has banned evolution because it hurts religious sentiments”. I found this extremely out of character for anything related to India. When I searched it, that was the first page result on google with many Reddit posts melting down over it. It took me a bit of effort to find the fact, they just shifted evolution and periodic tablet from 10th to 12th to reduce load on kids 😑 It is worrisome.

AI Native Agency (@AINative_Agency) reported@boardyai Being unsettled by a language model is exactly like a ventriloquist getting spooked by their own dummy. The model isn't sitting in a server rack feeling existential dread. It just successfully found the latent coordinates of human anxiety by scraping a decade of Reddit threads and sci-fi scripts, then mathematically predicted what would creep you out. You aren't talking to a ghost in the machine. You're just staring into an incredibly articulate mirror.

Iseunife The First (@Shawnife) reportedLet me explain why VLC is still free despite having over 6B downloads. VLC doesn’t make money because making money would destroy the only thing that made it reach 6 billion downloads in the first place. VLC grew through a specific distribution loop: tech-savvy users install it once, it works perfectly on every weird video file they throw at it, and they recommend it to everyone forever. IT departments deploy it across entire companies. A Reddit comment from 2009 still drives downloads in 2025 because the answer never changed. That recommendation engine dies the second ads appear. Not slowly. Immediately. The users who drive VLC’s distribution are the exact people who understand what ads mean. Your incentives just switched from “make the best player” to “maximize impressions.” They see it, stop recommending it, and your growth engine shuts off. Run the actual numbers. VLC gets maybe 50 million active users daily across 6 billion total downloads. Typical video player ad rates run $1-3 CPM. Even if you served ads on every playback session, you’re looking at maybe $50-150 million annually at absolute peak optimistic assumptions. Sounds like a lot until you realize what the owner actually traded it for. VLC reaching 6 billion people made Kempf (owner of VLC) the person who built the infrastructure everyone depends on. He runs a video consulting business. He built dav1d, an AV1 codec that powers modern streaming. Being “the guy who kept VLC free” opens every door in video technology. Clients pay him to solve problems because he proved he optimizes for quality over quick monetization. “Former ad-supported media player executive” gets you exactly zero of that leverage. The people celebrating Kempf’s ethics are missing the calculation. He didn’t sacrifice millions for principles. He rejected $150M in highly uncertain ad revenue to build permanent positioning worth multiples of that in everything else he touches. VLC free generates more value for Kempf than VLC monetized ever could. The trade was never even close.

Smug Man (@Borgiepoo) reported@MorosKostas Reddit can have its broken clock moments I will admit, like r/atheism bashing Islam and other religions when it isn't just hating Christianity.

EpstinyKleinsStrongestBrigader (@NukeRedditNow) reported@Justleftofcent2 @OS2NOX They will link to a 2 second clip of Hasan on stream looking down at his phone as "evidence", and it will be instantly taken as fact and perpetuated around reddit for the next couple days.. But in a week they will be back to claiming Hasan has no power or influence

‘Round Midnight in the Century (@HppeOsk) reported@glosseantics @xoayquanh This always feels like the real issue with the other site, not whether it’s “cringe/Reddit” but that it comes across as congenitally insular (which if someone wants that fair enough, but you can still do that here so there’s an inevitabily self-denying ordinance there)

Palanlassie🔮 (@Palanlassie) reported@DavidRi24012971 @amtrusova ******* Reddit. Sorry to hear it. It's a lovely painting I lasted a month on Reddit and people down voted advice I know is accurate for no reason. I soon left. Intolerant isn't the word. Stay on Twitter and show your beautiful work here - it'll be appreciated

Kürşad Demirkıran (@fasist_dediler) reportedDoes anyone recognize this AI-generated video? I've been trying to find it for a while. I watched it on X (Twitter) earlier this year, but I think it was originally made in 2025. Here's what I remember: It was a cinematic 16:9 AI video, around 1 minute long. It featured a beautiful Asian woman with long black hair wearing a black bikini. The setting was a beach or lakeshore during daytime. She was fighting a giant octopus-like sea monster (kaiju) with many tentacles. The monster kept attacking her with its tentacles, and she dodged them in slow motion. Then the camera focused on her, and her black bikini slowly disintegrated into ash-like particles, transforming into a glossy black superhero/tokusatsu-style suit. She didn't wear a full helmet—only a sleek black eye mask appeared. An energy sword (or possibly a glowing katana) materialized in her hand. She continued fighting the giant tentacled monster with the sword. I don't remember the creator's name, and I vaguely remember there being a small logo or watermark, but I can't recall what it was. I've searched YouTube, X, Google, and Reddit using keywords like kaiju, heroine, AI, Hailuo, Kling, Veo, and tokusatsu, but I still can't find it. Does this sound familiar to anyone? If you know the video or the creator, I'd really appreciate it! Can yo help me?

jbones49 (@49rguy) reported@amtrusova Beautiful work. Reddit is a mess. They can’t risk losing the narrative. Cant see how this art could have caused that issue but alas here we are. Be proud and enjoy

kayjii (@kayjii) reportedEveryone keeps asking content creators to speak up about the problems in Marvel Rivals… A lot of creators and pros have already given up because valuable feedback gets ignored anyway. The loud minority on TikTok and Reddit freaks out every time they can’t just hold one button and climb straight to Grandmaster. But let’s be honest, I’ll probably get ignored too because I'm not insulting and bitching on sites like Reddit and Tiktok, Apparently constructive criticism doesn’t get traction. You have to scream, insult for people to actually notice.

Memphis (@thornskeptic) reportedI loooove Justin & will forever be a belieber but look at Skylrk forum on reddit, his customer service team is also a joke 😭😖 terrible management of their brands tbh The Biebers are really just selling their name on brands, despite the products being mid to low quality
-
plasma ۞ (@plasmarob) reportedThe very act of asking reddit or the internet for help w a minor issue is a failure mode This is part of why "therapy" is destroying so many lives. These incentivize moving the problem away from the solution source. If your spouse bugs you, tell them. Not the internet
-
Queen Pierre (@QueenPierreBaby) reportedReddit is a terrible place. The mods on it are awful. That’s why Alexis left his own creation because he couldn’t stop “Redditors” from using his own platform from calling his wife a “N word”

Ace (@Alpha1793109) reported@theanonlurker I guess you haven't seen the reddit crowd. In there they are already living in an imaginary scenario where Modi has been couped & captured,to undergo Nuremberg style trials. Instagram crowd is gullible.Few months down the line you'll see them dancing on some pro government trend
-
David Govea (@david_govea) reported@SIGKITTEN 1.2026.195, latest as far as I can see. Android 16 up to date. Found a couple Google/reddit with same issue on various apps, so could be out of your paws , unless there's some proactive microphone priming or something. Thanks for looking into it

Azmil_Nazran (@azmilnazran) reported@nickrenshaw5 Oh, I see. I saw a lot of people on Reddit with the same issue too. Kinda sad as a Nothing fanboy, I really trusted them. 🥲 What phone are you using now?

CA. Roshan Agarwal (@rhoeshan) reportedOne random chinese whisper on reddit and everyone is pounding on it to earn elon bucks. Guys for gods sake HDFC cant cancel your card randomly. Calm down!
-
Cheng Liu (@Cliu122Liu) reported@bdxtra34886 @reddit_lies The problem on Reddit is that a lot of people are toxic and instead of doing something about them, more often than not the mods openly defend and support them. Many times the mods themselves are the toxic ones and the admins openly defend and protect them.
