Some great places that are gone or not the same:
I’m looking for mod support surrounding the Timestamp Bug.
Questions:
Context: prior to Q1of 2024 (with reddit’s prior version, “New Reddit”), posts in queue awaiting mod approval, once approved, arrived at the top of New Sort, with a timestamp showing the time that content was approved. Excellent.
Now, with the current version of reddit (“shreddit” introduced in Q1 of 2024), posts that are held in queue awaiting mod approval, once approved, arrive lower in New Sort, with a timestamp showing the time that content was posted.
They now appear in New Sort as old/stale/sunken/lower, often lost from view, sequentially ranked according to its posted/old timestamp (not ideal) rather than its approved/current timestamp (ideal). This gives the subreddit a disadvantage. Content appears to be hours old without upvotes, views, nor comments (zero traction) because the post timestamp is shown rather than the approved timestamp. Since ours is a curated subreddit (all photos are removed to queue then voted on by our mod team as to whether they fit our genre), this hurts not only our sub’s visibility/traction but also hurts each contributor, as it puts their content at a disadvantage compared to other posts in a users’ home feeds.
It was previously mentioned that reddit is working on this and, after waiting all of 2025, it might be fixed in 2026 Q1. Now in May, we see huge earnings posted by reddit for Q1, but no fix of the Timestamp Bug. A fix would be greatly appreciated. We’ve been more than patient. To wait over a year for a bug fix seems… not reasonable, not what I would consider “mod support”.
Example: https://www.reddit.com/r/minimalistphotography/s/ulsle7PGYX
- 3:41pm ET (UTC -4) post submitted.
- Discussed by mod team.
- 7:33p approved and arrives (sunken) in New Sort with a time stamp of 3 hours old but no votes and no views. In our sub it shows at the top of New Sort as our newest post but in a users home feed, other more recent posts would bump it down the feed.

Some people are taking dangerously high doses of ivermectin based on social media claims about its anticancer potential. Some are using veterinary paste intended for horses. People have died. Research does not support high doses.
For women with oestrogen receptor-positive breast cancer who hear the words “your cancer is no longer treatable”, it marks a turning point that is frightening. The drugs that were working — tamoxifen, fulvestrant — have stopped working. The tumour has found a way around them. And the options that follow are typically more aggressive, more toxic, and less certain. What is quietly remarkable, then, is that a drug costing a few pounds, originally developed to treat river blindness and parasitic infections, is emerging as a serious candidate for disrupting the precise molecular escape route that makes this resistance possible. A study published on 30 April 2026 in PLoS ONE adds detailed evidence — and it points in a direction that the field has not, until now, been looking.
Tips:
Clothing: attracted to dark colors.
Protection: long sleeves/pants, head nets (they are attracted to heads and tend to crawl under clothing)
Timing: most active 9-11a and 4-7p
Conditions: most active on un-windy, cloudy, humid days, or just before rain.
Bug repellant: 30% DEET (or higher) or Picardin. Natural options: Citronella oil, lemongrass oil, eucalyptus oil, and tea tree oil can help repel them.
Zone: more common in shaded, wooded, or wet areas.
Scents: Avoid using perfume, cologne, scented shampoo, etc.
Trap: if you don’t mind the look… wear a baseball cap to which you have attached a blue Solo cup (and coated it with a sticky glue (Tanglefoot)).

Per Jane: strongly blocks this enzyme (ALDH2 and that can push the cancer cells into fatal ‘oxidative stress’ - overwhelming its antioxidant protection. In the future, look for it to be used as a targeted therapy for the majority of colorectal cancer patients who carry this APC mutation.
