It would be really good if somebody would develop into the Reddit App an opportunity for people to have their posts read to them.

I’m finding all the reading tiring, especially with longer replies. Would it be possible for the developers to add a read aloud option so we could listen to a response or post instead?

I have ADHD, and being able to listen would make things much easier for me. A simple button beside each reply, with pause and resume, would be very welcome.

Is this something that could be considered?

Agree or disagree?

I recently became moderator to a previously abandoned community ( r/creepydesign ) and was considering setting up and posting a community contest to encourage engagement to return after the community had been dormant for some time.

I'd likely be providing an amazon gift card(s) for prizes at my own expense.

I'm looking for advice on:

•Is something like this allowed?

•I'd prefer original content - or at least to award the prize to the user that is the original creator, is there a tool to verify original content?

•What would be the best way to select winners (Upvotes? a poll at the end of the contest? etc.?)

I'm also looking for general advice from any other mods that have successfully run community contests.

Thanks in advance.

I’d like to see «Top Members» and «Top Commenters» work better for smaller communities. Instead of requiring a fixed threshold like 100 upvotes, the system could use a lower or adaptive threshold based on the size and activity of the subreddit. In a small community, even 5 upvotes across posts, comments, or replies might already be enough to identify the people who are genuinely the most active.

I mod a relatively small sub and this will help to appreciate members even if they don't have 100 upvotes and I believe help to make the community more active.

And also I see more support in recommendations for small subs in feed now and in recommendations so I think may be this feature will be helpful btw I believe it will be really helpful in community I mod personally this is my experience.

What do you think?

are they being removed by reddit? they dont have the usual things like "spam removed by reddit's automated systems" or "potential
harassment"

should i be particularly worried about em?

I've attached a pic in the comments

I was going through some subreddits and noticed a strange pattern. On the surface it looks simple. But I noticed something strange. There is one main sfw reddit account who is the main mod. Under this account are other mod accounts. But these other mods are all adult models who sell subscriptions.

So these additional mods post their own content on the subreddit to funnel users to their reddit profile where they soft sell subscriptions using profile link.

Mind you these aren't small subreddits. Almost all of them have 100k-1M members.

Also they pin an announcement to their subreddits where they funnel users from reddit to their Telegram channels.

This is definitely an organized ring. Normal user posts are just a front to avoid suspicion. Mods themselves are the real beneficiaries.

My questions:

1. Is this allowed on reddit?

2. Can mods create telegram channels and funnel reddit users there?

3. Can mods do user verification off the reddit platform? I see these guys doing user verification on telegram.

Yes, as was mentioned here four months ago, the sidebar button image in the Android app still isn't loading—no matter what I do or which image format I use. It shows up on desktop, but when I check the Android app, neither the image nor the link attached to it appears.

Any solution?

I'm using the Android app version 2026.39.1

Hello mods and admins,

I'd like to get any data that I can get for the sub I created almost 3 years ago for doing a review year by year for the members. I screened my analytics for the first year but I forgot to do it this January. Is it a way to get it easily without doing maths? Thank you for your help !

My sub has daily post topics that are posted and stickied by the AutoMod for each day of the week. For the past two weeks the Monday post has failed to post. There's a message in Mod Mail from u/reddit that says only "Unable to submit post 'Mutual Aid Monday'" with a time and date stamp but there's nothing else to explain why this post is failing.

The other automatic posts are fine and have gone up without issue. What's going on here?

edit: solved.

I just became the moderator of r/alejandravillarreal after requesting it on r/redditrequest three days ago. The subreddit has around 50 members and 20 weekly visits & it was set to restricted by the previous moderator who got a site-wide ban. I requested to set the subreddit to public & immediately got a modmail saying that the requested changes have been made. However when I check the Community Type section in Mod Tools, it still shows that the subreddit is restricted and I need to request changing it to public & other people are still unable to make posts without request & approval.

So they get an error message even though I have multiple apps installed and I see them & can use them. There's no restrictions to their mod account. If this was only one app I'd try to contact the creator/post on r/Devvit, but it's ALL of them.

Is there anything I can do to fix this so they can use the apps on our subreddit?

EDIT: I fixed it by removing & re-adding them

We moderate two SFW communities and are looking for admin clarification and help with two issues that began at exactly the same time.

In each community, we attempted to post a short, approximately 10-second video as a comment. These were two completely different video files, and this type of video comment had previously worked normally.

In the first subreddit, the video comment failed to post. Immediately afterward, a large number of unrelated “Related Posts,” typically 20 to 30 or more, began appearing beneath the comment sections of multiple posts throughout the community, including posts submitted by other users.

Later, the same sequence occurred independently in the second subreddit. We attempted to post a completely different 10-second video comment. That video also failed, and immediately afterward the same large number of unrelated Related Posts began appearing beneath the comment sections of multiple posts throughout that community as well.

Since this started a couple of days ago, video comments have continued to fail, while image and text comments continue to post normally.

The Related Posts Issue

This is not a small recommendation section containing two or three related posts.

We are seeing approximately 20 to 30 or more posts from completely unrelated communities beneath the legitimate comments. None of the communities being recommended are communities we have previously visited.

Many of these recommendations also include “Join” buttons encouraging readers to join those communities.

Because these appear directly beneath the actual comments and continue for a considerable distance down the screen, they can easily look like unrelated promotional or spam content has been inserted into the community's comment section.

We understand that Reddit labels these items “Related Posts” and that they are not technically submissions or comments posted to our communities. However, from a reader's perspective, the distinction is not particularly clear because of where and how they are displayed.

From a moderation standpoint, we cannot find any way to remove these recommendations, moderate them, disable them, or prevent them from appearing beneath posts in our communities.

The Video Comment Issue

The timing is particularly notable because the same sequence occurred independently in both communities.

A short video comment failed to post, and immediately afterward the large Related Posts section began appearing beneath multiple posts throughout that community.

The videos used in the two communities were completely different files.

Video comments had previously worked normally. Since these issues began, video comments have continued to fail, while image and text comments continue to work.

We cannot determine whether the failed video-comment submissions and the Related Posts behavior are technically connected, but we can confirm that in both communities the Related Posts behavior began immediately following the first failed video-comment submission.

Could an Admin Please Clarify?

Is the display of 20 to 30+ unrelated Related Posts beneath comment sections an intentional Reddit feature or experiment?

Why are communities we have never previously visited being recommended beneath posts in our communities?

Is there a moderator setting that allows communities to disable or opt out of Related Posts?

Can individual users disable this section?

Is there a known issue currently causing video comments to fail?

Could the failed video-comment behavior and the sudden appearance of the large Related Posts section be related to the same Reddit app change or bug?

We have screenshots showing the behavior and can provide additional information if needed.

Thank you.

When I look on Desktop at:

• "Mod Tools" => "Insights" => "Members"

I see a bar for my subscriber count for each day of the last 30 days. However, there are gaps, some clusters of days that don't have a bar.

Is that to indicate there was no change in subscribers count on those days?

My Mod Mail as well as several other moderators at R/GangBangCity has stopped working following the ban of the Orginal Mod who made me one and then I made the others Mods. Anyway to fix this?

They both just want the other one to be gone from the team.

both have reasons to want that, the team wants to keep both of them.

no idea what to do to them
