Sometimes a thread can devolves or get thrown off topic due to uncalled for comments, etc. Giving an OP the option to softvdelete or hide comments on their own post could help them maintain their thread's intended tone.

​As it would be a soft delete, moderators and admins could still view and restore hidden comments if necessary.

This could help give posters more control over their posts while helping lessen the workload for subreddit mods.

Thank you for your time.

The other day I was scroling to fast and got rate limited and then the page crashed :/. The pags said to contact the admins, but didn't provide a way to contact the admins.

Furthermore to solve this, a sysadmin could put a webmaster email within the default error message crash page, or add a custom page in the webserver conifg that comes up with a webmaster email instead of the default crash page. Even if 99.9% of emails to the webmaster email are ignored it provides a address.

Lastly if this is to much work, someone could provide me with u/Spez direct contact number and I can verify that 1 am himan and in the webserver they could put my name down as an exclusion in the webserver config.

Thank you for your time.

As someone who recently came out of a 4 year lurk, I know how common it is for users to go into hibernation status on the platform for months or even years at a time.

Therefore my idea is to add a lurk toggle or status setting for your profile like what ICQ used to have or /away in IRC. I'm still not sure what the point of the online indicator is otherwise.

Even when you aren't active, older posts and comments sometimes still get new replies. If a user tries to comment on a post or send a DM to someone who has enabled lurk mode, they could see a brief pop up or inbox notification letting them know the user is currently in hibernation and may not respond.

That way, people dropping genuine replies or questions on old threads and or connents won't feel ghosted or ignored, and returning lurkers won't come back to an inbox full of... we'll say, unresolved expectations.

*cough* asking for a friend. I was on the late shift tonight, lost focus for two seconds, and rolled a whole rig right into the sea of tranquility on a project were woeking on. Management hasn't noticed yet, but wvidence is everywhere.

What's the best excuse before shift handoff? Do I blame solar flares, or should I just start oversharing uncomfortable personal details about my family until everyone gets too awkward to ask additional questions, or something else?

I saw a guy the other day wearing what was a completely flat, empty backpack and I wasn't sure what to think of it. Is it a fashion choice? An emotional support bag? Or something else?

What kind of vibe does an empty backpack actually give off to people?

We already have achievements for upvotes and high performing content, but what about a badge for taking one for the team?

​It would make the playing field feel a bit more even if there was an achievement for controversial or heavily downvoted comments something like the salty award or hot take expert.

If someone drops a comment that gets hit with a wall of downvotes or downvoted into oblivion, giving them a lighthearted badge turns a moment of community disagreement into a fun milestone rather than just negative reinforcement.

Growing an account organically by consistently dropping comments and posts that go hard as I've been learning is hard.

Not everyone has the time to constantly grind out top tier content, yet Reddit still relies heavily on high karma scores as the main standard for user trust, community credibility, and subreddit posting access.

To solve this, Reddit could introduce a system allowing users to purchase karma in scaling bulk tiers, such as ten dollars for ten thousand karma, provided specific guardrails are in place.

To prevent immediate abuse by spambots, the purchase option would only unlock after an account reaches a two thousand organic karma threshold through genuine community participation.

Additionally, full transparency would be maintained by expanding the profile hover menu to clearly display three separate metrics, "Post Karma", "Comment Karma", and now with this "Purchased Karma".

This approach gives Reddit a high margin monetization while preserving community integrity.

The organic gate ensures users still have to prove themselves first, and the public karma breakdown allows the community to easily distinguish between earned prestige and their parents credit card. Because let's face it, trying to drop comments and posts that go hard is hard.

Between blackballing guests, dead seals on the beach, and fire breathing cherries, Frasier and Niles never seem to fail to ruin an intimate soirée.

Which dinner party episode is your absolute favorite? And if you were hosting for a night, what’s one thing you’d change to actually save the party?

My favorite dinner party episode is where they invited the artist and it turned out the painting wasn't even made by the artisit.

I've noticed an issue with the captions on YouTube TV. The default caption size is too small for me at 100%, so I like to set it to 200% and adjust the font.

​However, the settings keep resetting back to default. I've noticed this happening across multiple TVs a Samsung, a Toshiba, and a TCL, even after changing the settings back. We've already tried reinstalling the app and clearing the cache.

​Has anyone else run into this or found a fix that sticks?

As we are seeing an increase in the amount of bot content and AI slop across the platform. Currently, you have to flag a suspected bot post, by I think navigating a report menu, I've never done it, so I don't know. And sometimes there are some users who simply don't want to deal with that.

It could be even easier by adding a small 🤖 icon button directly on whatever the upvote and downvote control bar is called. With a visible counter.

That way flagging is a single click, and when a post hits a certain threshold of bot icon clicks, it couls get automatically routed to the mod queue for review or temporarily hidden pending approval, which could help prevent mod report clutter.

​It helps keeps moderation easier and gives users an effortless way to keep feeds clear. And if the post stays then people could scroll past.

Thank you for your time.

We've all been there right? Suddenly you find yourself in a heated arguement discussing quantom mechanics and romance. Then the person starts losing the debate and rage mutes you.

Well, if this feature were included in Reddit pro, they can't easily turn and run when they started the arguement and it can continue.

I belive this feature addition will help foster community growth and help drive Reddit pro memberships at least ~2%.

Personally, I think Eddie needed to stare at Frasier more, I always liked how much it bothered him.

And it got me to thinking, what is something you would change or add to the show?

I have an idea that can support Redditors, and generate revenue, Reddit could require a subscription or microtransaction to fully edit, view user profiles, and post histories.

Free tier: users can customize their profile bio, but their history is private to non-paying viewers.

Pro tier $4.99/mo: unlocks full access to edit HTML, CSS, pin unlimited posts, and view restricted, user profiles.

Who in the show do you identify with or relate to the most?

While I’d like to think I’m more of a Frasier, a friend recently told me I’m actually a hybrid between Niles and Martin.

Their reasoning was that I have an eye for detail, and love a good intellectual "well, actually" moment, but I tend to balance it with Martin’s grounded, no nonsense, zero sugarcoating perspective.
