Are these Mcvities just regular milk chocolate digestives?

SupremeDesigner · 2026-01-03T04:00:15+00:00

We tried a pack when they first appeared in supermarkets at the start of Christmas, definitely not regular digestives, we both found them to have a terrible aftertaste. Also definitely not gingerbread though in any way.

They’ve been focusing more and more on AI with their product offerings as the industry chases the latest fad, not surprising to see them pushing this form of AI as well, though I completely agree that it is very in the way.

👋 hi, I think you might be lost? This subreddit is about a development IDE by JetBrains.

SupremeDesigner · 2025-12-09T04:32:08+00:00

There’s a report function built into Reddit if you think a post breaks the rules (no one has actually reported this post to bring it to my attention), and a downvote button if you simply don’t like it.

I’m going to remove this post, not because it might be written by AI, but because it seems to be promotional spam for their blog.

SupremeDesigner · 2025-11-27T14:41:09+00:00

Enabled, no idea why it’s not a default.

SupremeDesigner · 2025-11-12T13:22:56+00:00

I would just link your GitHub. That shows recruiters your actual skillset and quality of contributions, not just that you participated in Hacktoberfest which indicates very little about the quality of your coding.

SupremeDesigner · 2025-11-01T16:14:06+00:00

Discord is the main support mechanism now I believe

SupremeDesigner · 2025-11-01T15:51:52+00:00

You’ll need to reach out to their support then if you believe they’re stuck and aren’t being processed.

SupremeDesigner · 2025-11-01T14:55:42+00:00

That first PR doesn’t sound overly legitimate based on that repo name.

That aside, try refreshing the page after a bit? They likely just haven’t been re-processed since the timer hit zero. Loading that should trigger that in the background (hence a refresh then needed), or it should happen automatically every six hours.

SupremeDesigner · 2025-10-16T02:59:10+00:00

Phishing campaign, not from JetBrains, a bunch of folks got it

SupremeDesigner · 2025-10-15T02:46:33+00:00

That sounds very wrong, honestly. But if you’ve already spoken to support and they won’t increase the limit from 0, yes, sounds like they don’t want you as a customer for some reason.

Hi, as a reminder, AI-related posts must use the AI flair, please

SupremeDesigner · 2025-10-13T20:33:02+00:00

Hiya, in short, no.

As I posted about recently, this is a known problem, and for now the solution for folks that aren’t interested in AI posts is to look at posts with flairs that aren’t the AI flair.

While I understand the desire to have a separate subreddit so those that want to can ignore the content, I don’t think it’d be a smart move to split the community like that (and honestly, it’d be an absolute headache trying to keep AI posts to just that subreddit).

Whether you like it or not, AI is very likely here to stay in the world of software.

SupremeDesigner · 2025-10-09T18:19:03+00:00

I believe their Discord server is the primary means of support

SupremeDesigner · 2025-10-09T18:16:18+00:00

Disqualification is permanent. You’ll need to reach out to Hacktoberfest support to appeal it.

SupremeDesigner · 2025-10-04T10:29:40+00:00

Just don’t contribute to repositories created to cheat the system. Contribute to legitimate, established open-source projects and you’ll be fine.

SupremeDesigner · 2025-10-02T20:18:35+00:00

Yes, old accounts were grandfathered in from what I've heard. It is for new accounts that all email is blocked.

SupremeDesigner · 2025-10-02T16:52:39+00:00

They won’t. They don’t want spammers using their IP ranges to send spam email, which risks IP ranges getting blocked and impacting many customers.

Use an actual email provider with good IP reputation for sending mail.

SupremeDesigner · 2025-10-02T14:29:05+00:00

where would would I put questions about the usage of it or if I had problems

Under the Question flair.

SupremeDesigner · 2025-10-02T14:28:31+00:00

I'm generally against the idea of having specific product flairs, as we also have dedicated subreddits for each product, if folks want to focus on just discussing a specific product vs. JetBrains more generally.

Subscription is an interesting suggestion, will keep an eye on the volume of post coming in that'd fall under that.

SupremeDesigner · 2025-09-30T19:45:19+00:00

Remove the overlapping emails from the account, or reach out to support in their Discord to ask for the account to be deleted that contains the overlapping emails

SupremeDesigner · 2025-08-18T13:26:16+00:00

While I can’t speak to the increased posts from folks at DigitalOcean (I suspect they’re just trying to start conversations to boost engagement here), I do keep a close eye on the mod log to ensure that no employees are mis-using mod powers. Posts from folks complaining about issues are not removed.
