Yes, I've read many posts the current state of reddit. But today, somehow I thought it can't be that bad if I just go looking for some funny videos.

Boy, was I wrong. This post was at the top of my feed, and briefly scrolling through the comments got me out of there without looking at anything else ☠️

Oh, well, I tried...

That's a misguided assumption. There's a mod in that sub who habitually deletes posts and comments for no good reason, which inspired the creation of r/AskWomenNoCensor.

All the top posts on r/askwomennocensor seem to be women complaining about how the sub is overrun with men asking for dating tips, with the mods stating in a thread 16 days ago:

We remove a thing, and suddenly we get called fascist, tyrant, "chronically online," etc., and members wildly upvote those public callouts.

Yall gotta decide if yall want "fascist tyrants" or to be plagued with inane incel questions. We remove a dating question? "Tyrants!" We let it go? "Why is this sub so trashy?"

As one redditor notes:

I know this sub was created because the other asksubs have so many rules. But this is unfortunately one of the reasons why so many rules exist.

Look, I'm not defending abusive users.

I'm referring to one extremely nit-picky r/AskWomen mod (u/nevertruly) who consistently manages to piss off women and men alike. Have you seen the screenshot at the top of this post? It's literally for stuff like that.

AskWomenOver30 is probably the best of these subs; the mods there behave like adults.

(Or at least it was; I've mostly avoided it since u/spez blew everything up.)

Yes, I've seen the screenshot. Eh. It's a gross post, and apparently OP acted like twat; I won't lose sleep over it not getting attention.
