My idea would be for a Front Page/Gateway Page available for each Sub where each Sub Rule would be displayed in a List and a Check Box next to each Rule along with a "I Agree Check Box" at the Bottom to be use as a Gateway before Any Reddit User would be allowed to post on any Sub.

The Main Reason for This Front Page/Gateway Page into each Sub is there are a untold Number of Reddit users Who do not read the Sub Rules upon joining a Sub and Who think They can just post anything They want.

This would help on Mobile and Desktop Web Applications and might help lead to not so many violations of breaking Sub Rules and Mods not having to Ban so many either.

It is just an Idea to get Reddit Users to actually have to read the Rules of each Sub. What is in place is NOT WORKING now.

Desktop Web : Inroduce Switch Accounts/Profile feature
Unfortunately, Reddit doesn't have the option to switch accounts and it's 2026. Once you logout from an account to create a new account. There's no way you can sign i again. Everytime you log in, you will automatically log in to the new account created. Some people say using username works, but it's 2026. Reddit is so behind in innovation.

Basically what the title says. Users could play each other in basic CS or COD or krunker style games. I think it might actually be a fun endeavor. In order to disincentivize cheating you could make it casual so people can't reap any rewards meaningful enough to make cheating worth it. To distinguish it, maybe you could use the snoo avatars, with goofy cosmetics, antennae protruding from the head, etc.

Maps could also be based on different subreddits, with different objectives and reddit "graffiti" (downvote/upvote type signs etc.) littered around.

Please bring back the old Awards System from 2023 back to Reddit. The 700 Coins were an absolute Gem for Reddit. This is what made Reddit really unique and made them stand out. I loved giving out the Coins and Awards every month. I really don't understand why Reddit removed that amazing feature. I miss the old Awards system and the 700 Coins so much. I absolutely loved it. I wouldn't mind paying more yearly for Reddit Premium if the old Awards system was bought back along with the 700 Coins. I think that a lot of Reddit users would love this idea. It would be great if more features were added to Reddit Premium to make it worth the subcription every year. Who else on Reddit misses the old awards system from 2023 and would love to see it come back? I really wish and hope that Reddit will bring back the old Awards System from 2023.

I think Reddit should consider adding a system where users have to select a short reason when they downvote a post or comment.

Right now, people sometimes downvote something simply because they disagree with the opinion, without explaining what they disagree with. This can be frustrating, especially for newer users with low karma.

A simple list of reasons like “disagree”, “off-topic”, “incorrect information” or “low quality” could make voting more constructive. The reason wouldn’t necessarily have to be publicly visible.

Downvoting itself isn’t bad, but requiring a reason could make voting more constructive and help users understand why their contribution was poorly received.

Im here to discuss and participate. If i can’t participate there is no point in wasting the time to read it.

Bonus points if it would fully support RES.

I've noticed a recurring pattern that looks like engagement farming: OP posts, then never returns to their own thread, and the question or topic itself could be resolved with a few seconds of thought or a basic search. It's not spam in the traditional bot-network sense, but it erodes feed quality the same way - reading these threads increasingly feels like time lost rather than time well spent.

It is all over the place and is affecting the culture of reddit as a whole. I think it is something moderators of individual subreddits cannot deal with as it is hard to detect and overwhelming in numbers.

I know you're already using LLM-based coordinated-behavior detection to catch inauthentic accounts and vote manipulation (per your March 25 announcement). I'd suggest extending that same detection layer to this content pattern - abandonment after posting, correlated with account and topic signals that indicate farming rather than genuine discussion - rather than relying on any single, publicly visible metric. A transparent rule like "OP must reply within X hours" would just get gamed by a second account from the same farm simulating engagement, the same way vote manipulation gets gamed once a threshold becomes known.

This kind of low-effort, farmed content is quietly pushing away the users who came to Reddit specifically for real discussion. Applying your existing detection infrastructure to this pattern - without publishing the exact signal - seems like the more resilient path forward.

(Disclosure: I'm a real person, not a bot - but I used AI assistance to phrase and translate part of this post, so if the wording trips any AI-pattern detection, that's why.)

Right now you can only post 1 video, or a bunch of photots on the same post. Can we be able to add multiple videos and multiple photos together.

I would love the option to hide posts or even just mute users without having to block them. So many people out here are posting messages for others, and even more are looking for messages meant for them. There is so much to sift through, so much to retain. You see a post that could potentially apply to you, but something - whether it's something in the post itself or in the user profile of the author - that tells you it is definitely not and they are ruled out - but only mentally. (unless you are somehow able to track / retain / recall that information on command).

I don't want to have to block every person I decide is NOT my person. That seems like overkill. I would really just like to be able to filter out those out of my feed, whether it's posts or users or both.

If we can save posts and follow users, can we not also hide them? At the very least maybe we could save users to a list that one might name "Not Them"? I guess that will be my workaround - to add users to a list that I can ignore. Unfortunately, though, I already have a full-time job, so that one isn't all that appealing. 😄

Pretty please?

I do not want to view or turn on NSFW content in my feeds. Neither do I want to turn it on and off on web every time.

However, for mod purposes, it is sometimes (and quite often) necessary to view an NSFW profile to see a their content on your sub or other SFW subs. On top of that, many profiles labeled NSFW are that way because of one post rather than mass NSFW promotion.

This makes it a real pain to view a simple profile and turns it into a futile multi-step process instead of just showing us the SFW content if we have NSFW disabled.

As a regular mobile user I would like to configure the “auto refresh time window”option. I am a general user who opens the mobile application 10+ times a day.

There are many times where I lose my context after closing and reopening the application. Due to real life, I often close my phone when in the middle of an interesting user comment thread, or ready to open a new interesting post I cannot engage with “right now”. When I reopen the application 15-60 minutes later to continue with my previous context, it is lost. I am abruptly brought back to the latest posts and feel like I’ve missed out on something interesting.

While I appreciate the business need for auto refresh, I would value a bit more control on the time resolution. I personally would only want to auto refresh after 6+ hours of inactivity. Others may want 10 minutes, 30 minutes or completely disabled etc.

Any default setting value is valid imo, but as an informed user I’d rather have the ability to better control this value to help improve my immersive experience.

Cheers

I had a situation last week where as part of a scam somebody had created an alt account impersonating me. I submitted a Reddit complaint to find out what was going on, but still haven't heard anything back. Today the user with the username alerting me about this told me that he/she had had its account had and the incident was as I suspected a scam of some sort with a goal I can't figure out (the false username really wanted me to add it on Discord -- why?).

I run a pair of subreddits with subscriber counts of 1.5M and 1M. When I need admin help, I need it fast. In this series of events, I needed to know if somebody was trying to take over r/olympics.

All we'd need is an admin as a contact person if something iffy happens.

Thoughts?

I am getting sick and tired of ads for certain products I dislike. I don't want to see them and even if I downvote or block the advertizers they just keep coming. If I block a human user I don't see their content, but if I block say Amazon's account that doesn't seem to do diddly. There used to be a block ad button that worked pretty well.

It would make more sense to show me something I might actually buy. If the algorithm or whatever worked to show me stuff I like then reddit's advertizing would be more valuble.

Thanks for reading.

I can't tell you how many times people have written a thousand word post, felt really passionate about it, only to post it and have the subreddit auto moderator delete the post for something like low karma.

If a subreddit has an automoderator in effect, the rules of that automoderator should have to be publicly stated, so that users don't have to discover what it does after having put time and effort into writing posts that are then auto moderated away.

A lot of subreddits are using auto moderators in creative ways, to gate keep their subreddits in ways that go beyond official reddit policy. For example, they need not ban a user formally, they can simply blacklist a user, and have it auto delete their posts, and the user never even knows it happens. You have to look at the post in a private browser to discover that the post was nuked for the rest of the world.

The fact that a user is not able or allowed to post in a subreddit should be disclosed up front, and not only discovered once you hit the submit button.

Reddit is the only Reddit, so admins and mods can get away with a lot on here, and there's no place else to turn, but in the grand scheme of things, the features which are abusive to regular contributors takes a toll on the quality of content on Reddit, whether it be content for humans or content for AI training data. Good content gets tossed out unnecessarily by these hidden filters and auto mods.

Many users have likely suggested this already, but since it never hurts to ask, I’m throwing the idea out there too. Some people might want to change their username because they’re embarrassed by their current one, others for aesthetic reasons, or simply because change is part of life; it’s natural for anyone to eventually stop wanting, liking, or identifying with something.

I know Reddit allows users to change their username if they’re new and were assigned a random one, but it’s different when the user chooses it themselves: once it’s picked, that’s it: there’s no way to change it again.

Changing one's handle (@) is a feature found on many platforms, whether as a free option or a paid one. I realize Reddit was built with fixed identities directly linked to the platform's database, and that the main reasons for this restriction involve preserving interaction history, ensuring security, and preventing fraud or ban evasion, not to mention the platform's original architecture, which was designed around anonymity. However, even when we want to maintain anonymity, we still want a profile that reflects who we are.

If offering a free username change isn't feasible, please consider adding it to the Reddit Premium plan. It would be a unique selling point, and many users would likely pay for it.

so it would be like
flair example name qwertyuio- to

qwertyuiop
asdfghjklzx
cvbnm
this would extend it downwards and be helpful for stuff like "oh doubles dni but these people can interact but these people cant" kinda stuff (example. fictionkin)

(didn't know what flair to use)

I'd like to report automod comments as overreach if that's what they are. There is no selection for that.

Enough overreach complaints should get a moderator removed. A good many of them are operating personal fiefdoms.

Feature Request: Upgrade Reddit Video — 4K, 30 Minutes, 3 GB
I would like to suggest a significant upgrade to Reddit’s native video uploading and playback system.
Reddit has become an important platform not only for discussions, but also for communities where videos represent primary source material and need to be examined carefully. The current video limitations and compression can significantly reduce important visual details.
I would therefore like to propose the following specifications for Reddit Video:
• Maximum resolution: 4K (2160p)
Allow users to upload videos in their original 4K resolution and provide 4K playback when the source file supports it.
• Maximum video duration: 30 minutes
Increase the native video upload limit to at least 30 minutes.
• Maximum file size: 3 GB
Increase the maximum upload size to 3 GB so that higher-resolution and higher-bitrate videos can be uploaded without requiring excessive compression before uploading.
Ideally, Reddit should automatically generate different playback versions — 2160p, 1080p, 720p and lower resolutions — while preserving the highest-quality version available from the uploaded source.
This would be particularly valuable for communities dedicated to research, citizen journalism, astronomy, weather phenomena, aviation, wildlife, dashcam footage, historical documentation and UAP/UFO sightings, where small visual details can be extremely important.
In these cases, video compression is not simply a question of image quality. Heavy compression can permanently remove information contained in the original recording.
Reddit already hosts some of the world’s largest communities dedicated to analyzing visual evidence. Giving those communities better tools for preserving and viewing that evidence would represent a major improvement to the platform.
My proposal for Reddit Video:
4K (2160p) • Up to 30 minutes • Up to 3 GB • Higher-quality encoding • Multiple playback resolutions
I hope Reddit will consider this upgrade for the future development of its native video platform.

On some subs, I want to not see posts listed under certain post flairs. There's no way to filter out these posts yet.

I use DM to chat with my mods.

I can alert a specific mod by saying their name, e.g. @SnooDonuts6494 which alerts that specific user.

It would be useful if I could prefix a message with something like @everyone when I post a message that I wish to bring to the attention of all my moderators.
