Reddit seems to have introduced sitewide AI moderation bots that are sweeping up users and outright banning them, without warning or explanation, for crimes like including links in their posts. This has started to hit some pretty well-known artists in r/comics.
It’s inconsistent and unpredictable - which makes it worse, since you don’t know what the rules are. As companies like Reddit give up more and more control to unaccountable machines, this kind of thing is getting more common.
Reddit has always had kind of a strange relationship with contributors and what is often called “self-promotion”. On one hand, it wants Content… But it can’t seem to decide where it wants the content to come from.
It’s nice that we’ve got alternative spaces like this.
Anyway, have some links:
- More comics:
- Patreon
11+ year old account here. 🖐️
I deleted my only account before I could get any sort of ban. F—k that whole site, bro. I don’t miss it.
The only thing that irks me is when people link me to a Reddit post. Then I see some comment that makes an incorrect statement (there’s one in each post), and I’m unable to reply and correct them. 🙈
I suspect those incorrect answers are there on purpose to get people to make accounts to correct them.
fuck. you can say fuck.
But what if their dad finds out? They will unalive op frfr
i’ll fuck their dads before they get a chance let me at 'em
Grownups can also choose not to.
Then pick a different word. Don’t censor the one you obviously are half using anyway.
The older I get, the more I find myself using words like “heck” and “dang”. But when I gotta say “fuck” I sure as fucking hell don’t censor it lol.
then choose a word you don’t have to censor.
censoring the word means you want what you said to have the weight of “fuck” but you’re too cowardly to fully type it out.
if you wish to diminish its power by censoring it, then don’t use it at all. there’s tons of four letter words that can be used in its place.
oh my gosh nima stop trying to make fetch happen. it’s not going to happen!
