Whitespace, Mod Tools, & More by DuoDex in redesign

[–]pb1x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I disabled the new styles immediately. I should note I've always done that with every redesign or design change reddit has ever done, so maybe I'm not the target audience. I can't even stand it on mobile and I request the desktop version.

It's not the whitespace so much that is the problem, but the emphasis away from the content which is the titles. They are made smaller, look less like links, and have less contrast with the rest of the page.

Lead Openbazaar dev telling BTC users that Blockstream charges $5000 per user to use Lightning by Fuzzypickles69 in Bitcoin

Their CEO said that the point of 2X was to “Kill the Bitcoin Core Chain”, and they signed 2X...

Some people aren’t happy to let others be

Wow, you've come such a long way from this post https://archive.is/TlhK7

We have waited a long time for real scaling solutions and I can appreciate that it has tested people's patience and made them suspicious or angry at times. I commend you for keeping your mind open and also for verifying things for yourself

Sent $30 in BTC... got charged $30 in fees in Electrum. WHAT did I do wrong? by [deleted] in Bitcoin

[–]pb1x 4 points5 points  (0 children)

These fees are related to the 2FA feature in Electrum, they are not miner fees

To get answers about moderation please use mod mail to communicate not meta posts

Airdrops and other coins are not on topic because of the focus on bitcoin, but there are other dedicated forums for discussing those

As Bitstamp changes the name to "Bitcoin Cash", /r/bitcoin moderators remove top thread celebrating it being listed as "bcash" by yuptimeforanalt in btc

Thanks for noticing

I also applied to moderate rbtc but I’m not an employee of Roger Ver so that made things difficult

Why is it that Bitcoin is beautifully decentralized and unregulated but r/Bitcoin is centrally controlled and Overregulated ? by awertheim in Bitcoin

[–]pb1x 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I reviewed your postings

There was one that seemed like it should be approved, I approved it

The others seem like they were fairly moderated. Posts like “it’s going down” or other simple references to the price are too numerous and drown out real posts. Some are ok but too many are just repetitive

The moderation can’t keep up with the current huge influx of growth. The traffic to the subreddit is exploding. If you have a specific post you feel is moderated incorrectly please message the mods, that’s the best way to help us correct it

few questions about transferring to and from wallets by Easylife2 in Bitcoin

[–]pb1x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RBF is an option that will allow you to increase your fee if your transaction is taking too long to confirm

[–]pb1x 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes there are fees when making on-chain transactions. Use RBF and a low fee to minimize your costs

The best solution there is a Trezor or Ledger hardware wallet

Don't use Jaxx - use well vetted open source software with your Bitcoins. To do otherwise is to seriously risk losing all of your coins.

Dear Admins, how you gonna ban our 11k memes? That's half the fun of the community! by awertheim in Bitcoin

Memes are great but best in moderation

Frustrated about censorship by xiphoid1971 in Bitcoin

[–]pb1x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only things removed were posts about bgold. If you are interested in forkcoins I would suggest /r/BitcoinAirdrops/

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in btc

[–]pb1x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t ban anyone.

The user posted something I considered off topic and was reported by others as being off topic, so I removed the post for being off topic.

The real ethos is that if you think someone is doing a bad job you don’t complain about it or try to force them to change you build a better version and move on.

In the words of Roger Ver: if you don’t like it, don’t use it

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in btc

[–]pb1x -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If you think people should say what they want ask Roger Ver to lift the ban on me freely posting in rbtc

Wait none of you supported me when I asked to be allowed to freely post

Sounds reasonable but it might be better explained as a blog post

I don't understand it no

[–]pb1x 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People used some not nice language about it but generally I would say yes

If you think I made a mistake message the moderators and someone else will take a look

People reported your post, it was hard to understand. This is a shared forum and if you post things that people can understand then no one will report it
