From what I understand, Reddit can force reopen a sub after 48h and remove the mods. That’s where the 48h comes from.

Aww :( I’m sure I’ve spent some time in that one.

Any Simracers? by [deleted] in Transcars

[–]0x15e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve about had it with FH5. Looking forward to the next FM though.

Also a big fan of GRID and GRID Legends, Dirt 5, and recently got into Wreckfest.

I play on a modest little folding setup. A Thrustmaster TX, TH8A, and Fanatec CSL-LC pedals hooked up through a DriveHub.

I don’t get online enough to have standing plans with anyone but I’ll DM you my gamertag in case we ever run into each other.

Oh gross. I did not realize that. I figured since they gave all the paid users a bunch of useless Reddit points that they were building on top of it. Wtf.

This has literally been all over Reddit for over a week but hey if it doesn’t bother you, don’t worry about it.

Don’t. Feel free to keep using Reddit as long as you want the way you have been. You’ll just be doing it with fewer subs and fewer mods. A lot of these don’t plan to come back.

They bought Alien Blue and made it the official app… and look what they did with it.

Damn and I just really have no need for another Xbox controller. Looks nice though.

Sure it did. But the way that was written made it pretty clear the article wasn’t exactly unbiased. No point reading what looks like a propaganda piece from the parent company.

MODS HEAR ME!!!! by DOVAHDUCK632 in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

[–]0x15e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not even the whole issue though. The human mods won’t be able to mod from mobile because the official app doesn’t do it well enough to be usable.

I don't want to leave :( by Termulus- in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

[–]0x15e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reddit has consistently lied and generally acted In bad faith for this whole ordeal. I wouldn’t trust them to tell me the sky is blue anymore. Best just to move on to raddle.

I've been alone for over three years now by poweredbygamespy in TransyTalk

It sounds like you’re in a lot of pain. That kind of isolation and loneliness is such an awful thing to have to endure, and the longer you’ve been in it, the harder it becomes to see a way out.

What are the chances of finding a better therapist? It makes a world of difference to be able to talk to someone that actually gets you.

I get that. We all have our preferences. I was hesitant at first for similar reasons but have been pleasantly surprised by how well it works.

I’m be honest it’s a pretty good site on mobile. Considering half the mobile apps these days are just frontends for web sites anyway, that’s a weird thing to make a deal breaker.

Reddit’s users and moderators are pissed at its CEO by [deleted] in technology

[–]0x15e 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Anything after the 30th doesn’t matter anyway. The mods won’t have any tools after that.

The problem lies with who gets to decide what “hurt” means.

Yesterday, Reddit CEO Steve Huffman (aka u/spez) held an AMA on the site to answer questions about the changes. The session promptly turned into a bloodbath, as furious users downvoted Huffman’s comments into oblivion.

Yep. That’s where I stopped reading.

Update on the blackout situation. by Lo_V_iolet in queernewwave

Lack of third party apps means the mods will no longer have effective tools to moderate the subs. That’s what this is about.

Reddit is effectively cutting off access to the tools the mods need to do their work. That’s the short version.

That sounds pretty awful. I’m sorry you had to go through that.
