automod filters made reddit an absolute nightmare. pouring my heart out on the depression sub and getting it removed because it didn’t have 300 characters or it was image post saturday or god knows what. you basically just don’t get to post on any sizable sub — before it was at least a lottery! post, see if people will like it! but now you can’t even get a post through!

there are 50 automod filters on everything, forbidden words or topics, perfectly good questions cast away to megathreads no one reads!

it’s a dire, awful landscape, and really terrible user experience, having something on your chest and wanting to post, but oh hey this won’t be posted until our ‘mod team’ ‘reviews’ it. isn’t that what voting is for? please stop treating me like a spambot or troll by default!

      LMAO what’s the fun in that? Much better to be the drunk ass mod who was removed as a mod and just navigate the town. Netflix series are made of this. I’m never giving up this userid. It is me. I might even gat more popular with the Reddit people. I can be that sexy guy that just came out of jail. Like on Netflix. Or Amazon prime.
