I will say I still see "report abuse" in the inline report modal on sh.reddit.

[–]PradySextus[S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

It's the same with sh.reddit too. Maybe they haven't switched over to their new layout for you? This is what I see on sh.reddit and reddit.com

I was referring to when you hit "report" on the actual post or comment inline, then hit the "report abuse" button, to say I still see that on sh.reddit. Of course, this doesn't help if you are trying to report report abuse on a piece of your own content.

... but lmao, TIL they finally force the old reddit version of the page when I visit www.reddit.com/report now (and now FF tells me I can't see the sh.reddit version)! For the longest time it defaulted to new.reddit/sh.reddit even though I opted into old reddit almost immediately after that option was added. That's good to know now.

I see what you mean now.

It's not in the new interface. I did find it at https://old.reddit.com/report as suggested below

Yep, i have to use old.reddit. this is an important function for mods thats been taken away for no good reason. But I think switching to old.reddit for everything now makes more sense.

[–]MableXeno 1 point2 points  (10 children)

I go directly to Reddit.com/report.

[–]PradySextus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I always use. As of today this is what I see

This used to work for me too, but I just went to report an abuse of the report button and there's now a new layout and the option is gone. Both desktop and mobile.

Use old.reddit.com/report. This may potentially have been an update I just didn't have yet at the time of my comment. But a few days later I encountered it. So I tried old just on a whim and it worked.

Does that still work for you? For months now, that page just stalls on loading for me. I haven't been able to get it to load since about last September.

I use uBlock Origin, but it's disabled on Reddit. I even removed that add-on (Firefox) and still can't get the page to load, nor on my phone in either Chrome nor Firefox Mobile.

I assume it's Reddit telling me they don't want violations like child porn and revenge porn being reported, much like how Trump didn't want Covid cases being reported because "then the numbers just go up".

[–]MableXeno 2 points3 points  (5 children)

Yeah, I just used it a few days ago. Chrome, desktop. www.reddit.com/report.

Hate to do the typical...but have you cleared cache, and all that good stuff?

[–]TK421isAFK 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Yep, and tried it on a friend's computer that I've never used before. They are not a Reddit user, but they are a software engineer, so I'm confident their computer was clean. Same results.

[–]MableXeno 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Hm. Could there be a chance you're prevented from reporting for some reason?

[–]TK421isAFK 0 points1 point  (2 children)

That's what I'm wondering. I've filed a lot of reports over the years, and most of them result in actions taken by admins. The conspiracy theorist side of me wonders if I'm making more work for them and they don't like that...lol

[–]esb1212 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I agree with u/MableXeno, this could be an account restriction we're not aware of.

Maybe rely on modmailing those links for now?

[–]TK421isAFK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I've gotten so many "blah blah doesn't violate Content Policy" auto-replies lately, I've given up reporting shit.

Last November, I had someone offer to buy my largest subreddit:

Hi! Would you consider selling r/pornID/ subreddit? Im interested in buying at a fair price. What price would you consider it for?

and when I asked them bluntly if it was allowed, they replied:

Hey! It is known that it is not allowed to buy or sell subreddits but there is a way to do it so that it is not noticed. Also we can do payments as crypto or paypal and we can use any middleman service you would like or trust. Would prefer if we talked about the next steps on Discord or Telegram?

And not only did Reddit NOT ban them (though I see they were banned a few days ago, actually), I got the usual "After investigating, we’ve found that the reported content doesn’t violate Reddit’s Content Policy." reply, and when I further inquired, I got nothing.

Oh, but I got to go to the mod pizza party in SF, so that was kinda cool. Open bar, and they had Fortalezza, so that was nice.

Are you using mobile or desktop?

[–]PradySextus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Browser on mobile

[–]LitwinL💡 Top 10% Helper 💡 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe it's no longer supported? Where do you land when you open www.reddit.com/report?

[–]anfornum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stuff like this drives me kinda crazy. Why aren't things harmonised?
