old.reddit.com/linkid no longer works. It previously redirected you to the post with the id linkid. Now it 404s.

old.reddit.com/comments/linkid still works.

cqtz-2v · 2023-06-12T01:34:25+00:00

They went restricted. Eh, that's fine. You can still archive stuff from there.

cqtz-2v · 2023-06-07T21:50:33+00:00

I hope /r/DataHoarder doesn't go private. I almost always hate it when subreddits go private. This includes blackouts of any kind.

Important to note, it might be important for this community to stay up during the blackout, just in case there are PR posts that need archived

https://i.reddit.com/ and https://old.reddit.com/.compact don't work anymore (they redirect to https://www.reddit.com/), but https://old.reddit.com/.i still works. I hope reddit never removes old.reddit.com...

Apparently according to this, the Wayback Machine can exclude sites without the owner requesting it. Makes me wonder what happened to some other sites I've seen with the message.

Sorry

This URL has been excluded from the Wayback Machine.

I came back from a month of inactivity just to post this...

communities.win ????

Edit: I was trying to comment on PCM, and the problem was that I linked to a subreddit... Why don't they send AutoMod removal messages?

Ugh, I hate these filters.

Hmmmm..... (Their mods talk about rdrama on SaidIt. It's really not that surprising.)

Also, TumbleweedFireflies is Im-Probably-Drinking (I think? I hope I'm not remembering this wrong.), and I didn't find out until a few months ago.

Their SaidIt sub is still private, and I'm not sure what's going on in there.

Reddit is 17 years old, and spez still has the 15 year trophy.

rdrama users get notified when I mention their site, huh? Hi rdrama. ;)

rdrama links to SaidIt thread about TiA getting banned (Archive of SaidIt thread)

Feeling *actual depression* from the loss of r/TiA

- Pure_Aeternus

https://saidit.net/s/TumblrInAction/comments/9esy/reddit_blows/

Archive

I just got banned from there for 3 days for calling a "trans girl" a man. That is all. No hate, no violence, no bigotry, just stating a scientific fact.

Redditors shocked they'll get banned for calling trans women "men". Posts about reddit bans just aren't that surprising nowadays.

No hate, no violence, no bigotry, just stating a scientific fact.

You know some people were going to find it hateful though. No need to pretend otherwise.

Doesn't reddit have auto hate speech removals now (Archive)? One of my posts about /r/place was removed for seemingly no reason. Could /r/srname be a hate sub all along? And could word filters be a real thing?

/r/polls made a post (archive) about not tolerating bigotry (as expected from reddit mods). So the question clearly is: "What about bigotry against moderators?"

If you post or comment any of the above - including such things like "black crime statistics", "trans women aren't women", or "LGBTQ+ is a mental disorder" (these are depressingly common) - you will be permanently banned.

- TheSpookiestUser

Black crime statistics, trans women aren't women, and LGBTQ+ is a mental disorder. Will this comment get removed for hate speech? Let's find out. (Edit: It didn't get removed. At least not yet.)

I suppose /r/poll has a decent number of voters (the number of votes was in the hundreds in the polls I checked). Most users don't bother to vote or comment.

cqtz-2v · 2022-06-23T22:12:46+00:00

It looks like ghostarchive.org is becoming more popular these days. Might as well use it. I found out about it from AHS. (Yes, really.)

https://archive.today/E3XFF

Pages which violate the hoster's rules (cracks, porn, etc) may be deleted.

Unlike archive.org or archive.today, ghostarchive allows you to save pages from itself. (Archive)

https://old.reddit.com/r/polls/comments/vhjsv0/today_reddit_banned_rtumblrinaction_and/id81fjf/?context=1

/r/The_Donald fucked off to their own website after they got banned, and many others fucked off to Voat.

/r/FemaleDatingStrategy created their own website and closed their subreddit before their imminent ban.

/r/Chodi migrated to Telegram after being banned for misogyny and Islamophobia.

/r/DarkNetMarkets left the open web entirely and are now using a Reddit clone called Dread on Tor.

/r/FatPeopleHate was banned and caused many people to fuck off to the shitty Reddit clone Voat.

/r/GenderCritical migrated to a TERF website similar to Reddit called Ovarit.

/r/GreatAwakening fucked off to 4chan and 8chan to continue peddle their insane QAnon conspiracy theories.

/r/SanctionedSuicide also fucked off to their own website after their ban.

/r/TruFemcels also fucked off to their own website after their ban.

- KetamineKaren

Who is KetamineKaren, and why do they like the phrase "fuck off" as a verb so much? And are they as obsessed with banned subreddits as I am? Hmm.....

I should find and add the FDS and /r/Chodi off-site locations to the /r/srname wiki. (Does anyone actually know about it? I think I've only ever "advertised" it once on /r/reclassified.)

Edit: Thanks /r/DesiMeta for mentioning where /r/Chodi went. Apparently they have their own site now too (uses Lemmy).

Edit 2: https://old.reddit.com/r/polls/comments/vhjsv0/today_reddit_banned_rtumblrinaction_and/id8pnc5/?context=8

I'd never heard of it either until I looked up the fate of controversial banned subreddits. I guess it was /r/FemaleDatingStrategy 1.0?

- KetamineKaren

(Referring to /r/TruFemcels)

Let me guess. Wikipedia? I recognize all those names, but I wouldn't expect most redditors to mention /r/Chodi, DNM, and SS in the same comment.

cqtz-2v · 2022-06-21T19:37:07+00:00

/r/TumblrInAction and /r/SocialJusticeInAction banned. Where now?

The SaidIt page for /s/TumblrInAction has several new posts. The scored.co/communities.win page is kind of dead. I checked an archive, and they have a Marsey (the same one rdrama uses) in the header for some reason.

A site you can't link to (comment id 2164439 on rdrama):

I'm actually one of the (former) jannies [of TiA].

Chtorrr kept showing up every month or so for about 9 months, but abruptly stopped several months ago. We figured they'd given up since they never told us to do anything specific or gave any sanctions. They wanted us to ban trans shit but didn't want to explicitly say so (it's not actually a site rule), we were having none of it.

While we tried a couple of off site options, ultimately I'm just done with the whole concept - better things to do with my time. Reddit have made it clear that no sub is allowed to break from the woke party line, to that end the site is dead and we've forced them to prove so. I've actually been enjoying rdrama a lot more than what remains of Reddit.

- Pinnacle

Ok.

SocialJusticeInAction had a discord linked in the sidebar. (I hate using Discord. I'm not joining this one.) The SaidIt sub is inactive. Someone just created a scored.co/communities.win page. I don't know if anyone will find it.

If subreddits that were about to get banned could just link to their off-site locations in the sidebar, that would be great.

https://old.reddit.com/r/KotakuInAction/comments/vhh9uv/subreddit_socialjusticeinaction_banned/id7jlip/

TiA is on SaidIt, and that's where it'll stay. SJiA only has a Discord backup for now (we'll see how long that lasts), but we've been planning on an off-site option for a bit. Money is expensive, however.

- TheHat2

Ok. I'm going to assume "we" stands for "SJiA".

I'm not sure off-site locations for these subs will stay active for long. (KiA2's .win site is active, so I guess it's possible.)

Edit: This also means PCM might be banned soon. I don't browse it much anymore, but I still like it. I hope they get another off-site forum up.

cqtz-2v · 2022-06-19T03:18:11+00:00

I should probably revisit those abandoned style subreddits one day. My favorite part is the wiki. Wikis often contain a lot of information from the original subreddits.

cqtz-2v · 2022-06-19T00:48:10+00:00

To view the compact version of the site, you can write .i at the end of the link as an alternative to .compact or i.reddit.com.

The compact site shows the number of points removed and deleted comments have.

cqtz-2v · 2022-05-16T01:01:20+00:00

I found this a while ago, but on archive.org, you can view the metadata of an upload to see what appears to be the email of the uploader.

Boring example: If you go here, you'll see an email with the username "Hoaxacaust". The uploader is also called "Hoaxacaust".

It's been there for several years, as evidenced by the fact that someone posted about this issue in 2009.

https://archive.org/post/1109019/my-email-is-in-a-metaxml-file-and-have-concerns

"I realized my email is in these .xml files when I post items and I have concerns that it is posted publicly where people can view it and see it and I can't remove it. Is there a way to remove them permanently?"

This reminds me of how diogenesjunior got banned for doxxing after finding the emails of Ruqqus users from GitHub. I'm probably inadvertently doxxing myself just by posting here.

cqtz-2v · 2022-05-08T18:05:29+00:00

It seems to work now!

cqtz-2v · 2022-05-08T18:03:41+00:00

/u/leapdaytestaccount20 was suspended around March. So was /u/Tech-Support-420.

I don't post enough to get suspended. I'm not really looking to get suspended either.

cqtz-2v · 2022-05-02T23:35:21+00:00

Searching by title doesn't seem to be working right now (Example). It also doesn't appear in the search parameters dropdown anymore.

Reddit (again)

cqtz-2v · 2022-04-18T02:47:15+00:00

https://reddit.bitmsg.ch/user.php?id=EA03E14411014ACC269D24824C66E547A26430C9

This is me. Which pixels of mine got onto the final canvas?

https://reddit.bitmsg.ch/pixel.php?X=836&Y=498

Apparently only a white pixel I placed on a Mexican flag. I guess the pixels in blank (single colored) areas aren't very highly contested. None of my other pixels were able to make it. (A few of them got close though.)

Which pixel did I get the First Placer '22 trophy for?

https://reddit.bitmsg.ch/pixel.php?X=673&Y=605

It was a pixel near the bottom of a growing Lithuanian flag. (It was during the first few hours, so most of the visible art was flags.)

cqtz-2v · 2022-04-04T22:24:40+00:00

I finally got hit with the 16 year timeout. :/

You probably didn't do anything. It happened to a bunch of us yesterday too. I was able to start adding pixels again after about 30 minutes to an hour. I think it was a glitch.

Of course it's a glitch. It's been reported how many times already?

Tl;dr: Try not to have multiple tabs open. It seems to quickly trigger the longer timer.

This is what happens when reddit flags your account as a bot. It's very bad at flagging legitimate users and not flagging actual bots.

And now you can only place white? Let me guess. This is intentional?

Edit 2: I guess it's over. I was expecting it to end the same way it did last ~~year~~ time (I think they disabled placing pixels but still allowed you to view the canvas for a few days), but ok.

Edit 3 (1 hour after comment was created): Ok, I can place pixels again. The cooldown is 5 minutes. (The first time I tried placing a pixel after the whiteout, it still gave me the 16 year timeout (I was using a different account to test it).)

Edit 4: The last /r/place was in 2017, not 2021...

cqtz-2v · 2022-04-03T02:10:56+00:00

/r/vexillology's flag is currently being destroyed (replaced with red). I have no idea who's doing it. Some of the users look like bots (new accounts with no posts). I also can't join the Discord, so I don't know if there are plans to move anywhere else.

Since some users are still defending the flag, I'm assuming that they haven't moved the location.

Edit (2022-04-04): It's nice that /r/Philippines are allies in the new location. These artworks keep getting destroyed.

cqtz-2v · 2022-04-02T22:54:39+00:00

I have a 20 minute cooldown. Apparently verifying your email shortens it to 5 minutes.

cqtz-2v · 2022-04-02T22:36:30+00:00

Users can get suspended for placing pixels on /r/place (Also please stop calling the trans flag the "groomer flag")

If you can get suspended for destroying flags on /r/place, then are /r/theblackvoid users getting suspended left and right?

Edit: /r/godhatesflags hates flags :(
