All mods should be required to message a person after they take their post down and tell them what rule they broke.

26 Upvotes

Mods are human and so are regular users. Not all rules are black and white and interpretations may vary. As such, posting something and getting it taken down is a thing that happens from time to time, even if you have read the sub rules. What's annoying is having this happen and then going to double check the sub rules and then still not understanding what you did that was apparently wrong.

If a mod removes a post, they should be required to DM the poster a short message, such as "Your post was removed because it has been judged to be in violation of Rule 4." No explanation is necessary; if I don't understand, I can respond with a request for elaboration. But it would at least be something to start with, so that I'm not just messaging mods every time with "My post was taken down and I don't know why, could you please explain?"

There should be an epilepsy warning post flair/tag

16 Upvotes

I don't have epilepsy myself, but I've made plenty of posts that should come with an epilepsy warning that works just like the Spoiler/NSFW post marking to prevent an epileptic person from absently scrolling to a post that would be a trigger. I checked with my subreddit's moderators and they said they don't think reddit has such a feature.

If you recall, Instagram used to have white noise (snow crash screen) pop up when it loaded IGTV videos, and this was removed because that is an epileptic trigger. A friend of mine said seeing that for a brief moment would give a bad headache due to her condition.

Please add this as a feature to protect our epileptic friends!

Minimum Karma to follow 'me' to combat onlyfams spam

12 Upvotes

Let's kill the only fans followers-- I keep getting notifications that someone is following me. The only thing they have is a 0-1 karma account and a blurb in their user details identifying their onlyfans information.

Allow each user set a minimum karma score before another reddit user can follow them- or start that at a flat minimum of 500 karma required to follow another user.

search bookmarks and add keywords to bookmarks

10 Upvotes

Right now, the bookmark feature is primitive, leaving one with just an enormous stack of posts. There's no reason people shouldn't be able to do a bookmark-specific search and be able to enhance that search by having the option to add keywords to bookmarks.

changing your name - idea

8 Upvotes

Everyone probably has to admit one fault of Reddit is that you can’t change your username. So instead of making a whole new account and losing all your data/friends/etc., why doesn’t Reddit create a feature where you can change your name x number of times (perhaps in a an hour/day), but you get assigned a PIN number so everything can always be linked back to you no matter how many times you change your username. (Kind of similar to Discord.) I think this is a good feature for Reddit to have so please think it over, it’s ok if you decide not to make this happen but I think a lot of Redditors could benefit from this. If you made it to here, thanks for reading this! What do you think?

View your poll's results without having to vote yourself

It really bugs me when I have to interact with it just so I can see how the results are doing. Not only that, but why on earth are we even able to vote on our own polls?

Removing 'ghost' followers

7 Upvotes

Recently we were grated the opportunity to look at who follows us on the profile page. This would allow us to remove certain people by blocking them (which automatically removes them from following you).

Currently I have 11 followers that are 'ghosts' with no ability to wipe that out. There should be a way to remove those non-existent followers from the list.

Notes for blocked profiles

7 Upvotes

It would be nice to be able to write a note why a profile was blocked. It may be particularly useful when dealing with a previously blocked Redditor and knowing why they became blocked.

The note would only be seen by the profile that wrote the note.

Comment option Collapse all/Expand all

6 Upvotes

Sometimes you just want to see the first comments for questions. Collapse all option would do that. This is extremely helpful for those hot posts where you are late to respond.

Sometimes you want to read all the comments or accidentally hit the collapse all option. Then you can click the expand all option and it revert back to the original layout.

Just came up with this feature and I think its cool

6 Upvotes

I like saving posts in order to read them later. But sometimes there are of different subject and I have to search a particular post in my ''saved'' tab. It would be nice if we could create something like a folder of the saved posts and name it accordingly like for example finance or anything.

Mark or change the color of posts for OP's Karma Score

6 Upvotes

Found out that someone I was 'debating' with on their post has negative Karma score. Had I known they were a troll I wouldn't have responded.

It would be nice to have an option to hide posts from users with negative karma totals.

It would also be nice if there was an option to mark or change the color of the post for those with low karma scores (say under 1k).

There should be negative awards

You can up vote and reward, but you would probably sell more coins for negative awards.

Make it so if people give an "out of the magic portal" and "into the magic portal" award to a post it automatically lists the "into the magic portal" before the "out of the magic portal"

This would look a lot cleaner

Potential PM search feature?

5 Upvotes

Who else agrees it's a nightmare to scroll through months of chats for one memory that you didn't screen shot at the time? I think reddit should invest in a search feature for chats like discord has, I believe it will improve the worth of having both the website and the app and it will save time for those of us wanting to reflect on previous wholesome moments in chats. It might be useful for those who look back to prove a point, wouldn't it be easier if you could type in one word and the chat jumps to that moment?

Who else thinks it would be a good idea to have a search feature on DMs, like search for a specific date for specific memories? For those who agree, let's hope reddit hears our suggestion

a NEEDED addition to Reddit

5 Upvotes

make it say "(edited)" like all other social medias, when a message or post is edited.

because sometimes they say something rude and then change it to something nice when they about to get called out/banned. Reddit really needs this added.

Translated Posts/Comments

5 Upvotes

I’ve seen recently that on YouTube comment they have a button to automatically translate it. I don’t know exactly how this could be implemented but on YouTube the button only shows up on comments in another language and after it’s translated you can click the button again and it will revert to its original language. I thought this could be a useful feature on Reddit so that people can explore a wider variety of subreddits and interact with more people in communities they are already in.

Instead of subscribing to subreddits you like, opt out of those you never want to see again

5 Upvotes

I find my front page is filled with posts from subreddits I've subscribed to, which is fine but it doesn't help me find new subreddits. If I go to r/all it's filled with posts from too many popular subreddits which I know I'll never be interested in.

I'd like to be able to see posts from all subreddits except for those I explicitly tell reddit I dont want to ever see again.
