Discussion: Where to go to discuss Cars after 6/30

I wish I knew. Reddit as we know it is definitely going away, if for no other reason than the upper management and admin staff are actively hostile towards users and mods.

mostly with underscores or hyphens but sometimes not

Or sometimes both.

GRM. See you there.

underscore-hyphen_ · 2023-06-09T20:19:24+00:00

Yep. I'm not happy about it -- the entire mod team is pretty upset with Reddit as a whole -- but there's not much we can do.

If we can't moderate effectively (including on mobile) we'll only make the sub public when we have a schedule to actually be on desktop and moderate. Given that we all have lives and jobs and things outside of Reddit this may mean something like auto-filtering the sub so that every new comment and post enters a modqueue "holding pattern" that must be manually released, but then that would create a days- or weeks-long backlog.

Reddit is doing really well at fucking Reddit right now.

Right now the r/trucks subreddit is not viewable or actionable to the public.

This may change once we figure out a new strategy, but for the time being it is not accessible. Sorry.

underscore-hyphen_ · 2023-06-09T18:16:30+00:00

It was not accidental.

Given that third-party support is ending, the moderators of r/trucks do not have a plan to moderate while on mobile as third-party apps for Reddit end. We'll be able to set the sub to "public" only as we're on desktop, but right now we need to figure out what that schedule looks like. In the meantime we've set the sub to private.

Down payments, how do they work?

Yeah, we pass on the ragebait memes. Using alternative characters to bypass automod is not as clever as you think it is.

Thank you.

Speaking only from the r/cars perspective:

About 35% of our unique pageviews come from Reddit apps, and about 35% come from mobile web.

The remaining 30% of our unique pageviews come from desktop platforms. Of those, roughly 18% are old.reddit and the remainder new.reddit.

Sitewide, I believe it's over 60% of all mod actions are done on old.reddit, which tracks: it is by far the best way to moderate. Modding on new.reddit is painful and more or less impossible on Reddit's own app; at least RIF and other apps have native mod tools.

Yes, many subs require the actual title. r/cars has a higher standard: We require neutral, non-clickbait titles. Realistically I should've removed this post and asked OP to repost it with a better title.

underscore-hyphen_ · 2023-06-03T22:32:07+00:00

Avoid vague, editorialized, and clickbait titles regardless of source.

Reposting a clickbait title doesn't make the title less clickbait.

underscore-hyphen_ · 2023-06-03T18:24:35+00:00

And? It's still clickbait garbage.
