Can't post shit because account is new. Can't comment on certain shit because my account is new. Can't make posts until I have 3k points, Can't get points because I can't post. Not a fan...

Stay weird, imgur.
TheCrusher78
I've never been a reddit fan either
sauronater
It's fine if you want to be part of specific groups, like r/bartenders or cocktails, or anything really niche
FrankPembleton
reddit is trash
Caboune
Well, all I can say is that you used the wrong meme format. What you did is not a confession bit more of a complaint.
EnigmaWearingHeels
It felt right in the moment...
Caboune
It's OK most people don't care about those things anyway.
Number1Cause
I'll just stick here with you misfits. Thanks.
painkiller1968
They changed it recently where you have to be signed in to look at anything. Pretty annoying.
Emswe
I have reddit but the mod rules for posting are ridonkulous. I just use it for reading the malicious compliance posts that boredpanda 1/2
Emswe
got me hooked on. I dont like boredpanda b/c they swipe it from reddit & then put a bunch of ads & click bait on the page to make $. 2/2
keyblader1985
Reddit is ONLY good for browsing special interest subreddits. Everything else about it is terrible.
IdiotSavantTinker
Just wait until you can post/copmment, and any time you say something that ends up getting any attention you'll draw out all the trolls.
EnigmaWearingHeels
Join reddit, they said. It'll be fun, they said...

Reddit wouldn't take down the child porn/revenge porn subreddits until public outrage forced their hand. Reddit is not run by good people.
Steffn
What child porn subreddits are you talking about?
Rookvlees
Leave. It’s that simple. I joined facebook and eventually left. You don’t have to do recreational things you don’t like. Leave. It’s ok.
DonutOlympian
Wait until you join a subreddit then grey notified you've been banned from another subreddit you've never heard of
HelpfulCorn
I'm on fatlogic, that gets you banned from a lot of other subs
thebabbster
Good times! The mods are power tripping assholes.
EnigmaWearingHeels
Sounds exotic!!
choicebutts2
See if your city has a subreddit. Mine is pretty funny.
BabyBumbleBee3
Mine hasn't been used in a month
RFT42
this is my main use for reddit - following local gossip/happenings on my area's reddit
imredheaded
It's better than twitter at least... I just don't understand twitter
EnigmaWearingHeels
Well I don't use Twitter either LOL
TinFoilLoon
It’s good for a couple things. If you are into something, even if it’s odd or niche there is a sub and group of ppl also into it
Leevalleyoftheshadowofdeath
I use reddit for porn and specific information in whatever new hobby I'm thinking about
YesmynameisGreg
The worst part about Reddit is: no gifs. Gifs are my primary form of communication.
ThailandExpress
So.. you cant get to the NSFW section without signing up either?
Override9636
Sounds like you don't hate Reddit, you just hate waiting...
EnigmaWearingHeels
I have ADHD and I fully admit that patience is not my string suit.
EnigmaWearingHeels
Apparently spelling isn't my STRONG suit either.
itsjustplaid
Did reddit for a while, got tired of it. I miss smaller comms.
thebabbster
Reddit is toxic as Hell. Run away!
brianingram
Don't criticize Nazis ... been banned twice because of that.
BryanLaserEpee
TV subs generally have rules like this to prevent ad spam. It's up like on Squidgame because I got sick of day 1 accounts spamming quizzes.
yougetanornament
I started by being helpful. I hung out on r/fixit, r/whatisthisthing and some interests like r/pinball.
YesmynameisGreg
I thought you said r/whatisfisting and thought that was a risky recommendation.
yougetanornament
fist bump
YesmynameisGreg
EnigmaWearingHeels
I will try. I just didn't realize you couldn't post as a new accoun ! Why can't they just let me be downvoted like everyone else?!
Diplocrap
New accounts are a pain for awhile. I’ve started a new account a few times, and I am always caught off guard by the restrictions, too.
Diplocrap
It does get more fun when that isn’t an issue. Pretty sure some subs do it to limit the damage sock puppet accounts might otherwise cause.
insanitypurge
Because people make bot accounts and believe it or not, all of those spam posts take up resources/require people to moderate.
EnigmaWearingHeels
Sigh... I believe it.
Micro2112
The rules vary by sub. Start off in a sub for a hobby or interest, there's a sub for everything. It can be a great resource for the obscure
OSCgal
Start with small hobby subs. They're usually the best subs anyway, and rarely have karma restrictions.
EnigmaWearingHeels
Am getting the hang of all the hidey holes on there. I HAVE SO MUCH TO LEARN
FiftyShadesOfCauliflower
You can't even post images in the comments. Only links. How do people communicate without reaction GIFs / JPEGs in the 21st century?
FiftyShadesOfCauliflower
And I really do mean the 21st century. Shitty phpBB forums back in 2000 already had image support.
Dhatudhatu
Forums are superior in terms of outline. Embedded images in large reddit threads sounds like a nightmare.
justfillingthespace
Some subreddits have begun selectively allowing for image embedding in comments. It's been a thing for at least a few months now.
hodaddelvecchio
I have Reddit and hardly touch it. I prefer the Imgur community.
SneakECoyote
I use them for very different purposes. Imgur is just my mindless scrolling and chatter, Reddit I use to find or share information.
MundoCani
The down voters are too plentiful I find. I do browse reddit, but hardly get involved.
LinesOfCokeWithSnowman
Atleast reddit is consistent day to day on what is good and what is bad. Here it just depends on who sees it first
keyblader1985
The Imgur community has turned into hot garbage as well; just a different kind of garbage.
OmegaZen
both trash, everyone is stupid everywhere.. but once in a while there's a good meme.
nat300Lord
Same. I haven't used my Reddit and Twitter account ts in so long, I don't lost the log ins. Eh. No great loss there...
nat300Lord
Sorry for the typos
EnigmaWearingHeels
I also lost my Twitter login info years ago ?
TheSongofRiver
I dont have reddit, but my kid shows me a lot of lore explanations and ideas from a game I play. And links to sites with more information
Ultratoxic
I have both and ricochet between the two apps like an ADHD Roomba
Animorphs
Way less Nazis on here.
Steffn
Same amount of Nazis on here. On reddit you just get them concentrated on certain subreddits.
LinesOfCokeWithSnowman
Plenty of fascists though.
Wolvenlight
LinesOfCokeWithSnowman
what makes you think its a burn ;)
Wolvenlight
Animorphs
Are there? I guess they’re just in the bad comments haha.
LinesOfCokeWithSnowman
nah, its just the first name that gets thrown around if you don't agree with the mob.
Animorphs
Oh. You’re an idiot, sorry for the misunderstanding.
clearlyselfloving
you can't just post your nudes day 1
Shiggityshaybae
THEN WHATS THE POINT?! /s ...... jk. ....... unless....
LigerZerosMetalScratchingPost
Now they tell us
ActionJohnnie
You can, just should not
WaterUnderTheRocketAppliances
SnaccAttacc
Oh you absolutely can, I know that for a fact
clearlyselfloving
It was more of a suggestion
SnaccAttacc
That's the only thing I ever post on reddit tbh, I don't have anything else interesting to post ?
EnigmaWearingHeels
Gotta put your best foot forward for those karmas... guess I'll have to go around dropping comments instead of my panties shiiiiit
railski
SneakECoyote
Just DM me the nudes you wanna post I'll slap them up for you. Every respectable individua needs a Reddit agent to manage their portpholio.
clearlyselfloving
let's not get TOO hasty now
ItsActuallyDavidNow
Never let a meme browser app tell you that you can’t drop your panties.
EnigmaWearingHeels
I MEAN EVEN JERRY GOT REMOVED THEY DONT WANT US!! ?
clearlyselfloving
oh no! I'd upvote Jerry.
EnigmaWearingHeels
Jerry politely meows his thanks to you.
clearlyselfloving
I made some assumptions about your username and upvoted all your stuff.. and upvoted Jerry twice.
EnigmaWearingHeels
You are a kind imgurian and I thank you. I had to repost Jerry with OC in title and I'm not sure what else stayed up LOL its all confusing!
Hambonerhandy
I don't understand how anyone can follow a thread with the way the replies are all nested together. It's awful.
ZeldaBreathOfTheMild
Pacuta
That’s the problem I have with it, just navigating the site at all is a chore.
Mithi
The GUI is really awful. I'd really wish an easy(!) way to get Reddit into NNTP-format. So I can use a proper program and see what I read.
ViolentFlogging
Reddit is Fun app is a huge savior. Been using it for years. No major issues except for when they update stupidly then revert.
superhans1988
It drives me insane!
aliorix
Completely agree, my brain hurts.
Acc87
Really depends on the subreddit. The big default subs are awful anyway.
Dhatudhatu
I prefer the traditional outline of a web forum (chronological posting) rather than reddit/social media structure in general.
telemonianajax
Www.fark.com There are dozens of us!
Hambonerhandy
Thems fightin words. I preferred something awful.
Xenarion
What? The comment tree is exactly the same as on Imgur...
Mithi
Exactly, that's the problem
Buonaparte
Probably not using old reddit, still haven't found the collapsing - on new reddit
IMainReinhardt
If you're using the app just tap the comment and it collapses
Xenarion
Same thing on browser.
nangke
No character limit though
Hambonerhandy
Imgur is an image host with a short form comment section. Reddit is an internet forum for long conversation.
Xenarion
Where a comment tree seems like the optimal way to follow conversations. Way better than piling quote replies.
hatethisbit
1 comment, 50 replies of jokes and puns to wade through to get to the next comment
capnadorable
Hahaha ya I hate that. Such a dumb way to organize.
Biolog4Viking
It’s easer on the app. Comments can easily be collapsed
secondtalon
It's easier on the website - no accidentally smashing the username instead of the collapse button.
IMainReinhardt
You don't even have to select the username. Just tap the comment and it collapses.
Diplocrap
Collapse the replies you’re tired of reading. Continue with the rest.
Diplocrap
But also, I mean, to each their own.
Hambonerhandy
You shouldn't have to rearrange the replies to be able to read the thread. That's ridiculous.
Diplocrap
As I said, to each their own.
justfillingthespace
It's literally the exact same format as here. The ONLY difference is that 'Expand All' is on by default. It's annoying, but not that bad.
Hambonerhandy
I didn't say imgur was any better lol. But there is a massive difference between the two. You make short comments on imgur so it makes sense
Hambonerhandy
So do it like this. Reddit is a massive internet forum with thousands of replies and that way of organizing makes zero sense.
akom
It's a different approach and it has value. On Imgur, if you read a comment and give a thoughtful reply, only people interested enough in..
akom
the original comment are going to expand to see your comment. On reddit, the sub-comments are expanded by default. The chances that someone
akom
will see your sub-comment are much higher. And collapsing a comment thread is super easy. IMO, this drives more overall interaction, whereas

calvus28
Reddit is shit, any good sub gets taken over by power mods, like the one who went on Fox News
aspriringcatlady
If you like to be angry then watch racists get called out and ruined r/thisisntwhoweare
ImCommanderShepardandthisismyfavoritepostonthefrontpage
I had a post deleted by mods of a subreddit because it wasn't topical despite being a direct response to things happening in the community
HelpfulCorn
My hubby says the more obscure the better
MagicOrpheus310
Came here today this!! Reddit will treat you how you treat it
DarkRedCape
Stay away from game related subreddits. Literally any criticism is met with the most toxic bombardment of trash, insults and fake arguments.
DudelyVanhorn
i love when a crappy game subreddit gets so toxic they make a new one with no salt rules Ex: r/lowsodiumcyberpunk
IMainReinhardt
And now the normal Cyberpunk sub is generally a nice place. I love all the photo mode submissions.
justfillingthespace
Disagree. Both the Runescape and Destiny2 subreddits are filled with *constant* criticism, and the serious ones are highly upvoted.
IMainReinhardt
I'm in a few gaming subreddits and that doesn't seem to be the case with the groups I'm a part of.
IlluminaBlade
That's not true, some games subreddits are exclusively negative and anyone having fun is immediately eviscerated.
fdlFan
Depends. AFAICT, r/ffxiv has more people complaining about the community's culture of "toxic positivity" than it does actual toxic 1/
fdlFan
positivity. That said, there is definitely some groupthink there, but you'll find varying levels of that in any online community. 2/2
gaenaralhonk
Depends - the Dwarf Fortress sub is a lovely place.
iamgnat
Politics too. Any deviation for the sub's prevailing group think can result in some nasty stuff.
TheBigBadBonerBiter
Can't imagine being the type of person who willingly seeks out political content on Reddit.
Nuraalek
Depends - Factorio subreddit is one of the best around, extremely supportive
akom
I mean, maybe stay away from game subs if you're just there to criticize? I get plenty of tips, etc from game subs. Great resource.
DarkRedCape
This is what I mean by fake arguments.
akom
Ah. I see why you have a bad time on reddit.
DarkRedCape
This is what I mean. Instead of attacking my criticism or my post, you just attack me, completely dismissing any legitimate criticism I had.
EnigmaWearingHeels
Recommendations are welcomed with a +1 given in thanks ?
Drakhma
depends on what you like, I am in several, such as r/ffxiv and r/cyberpunkgame, just to name a few. there are loads of subreddits.
aThingWithTheStufAndTheJunk
r/camping, r/sailing, r/diy, r/maker. r/food, r/cyberpunk, r/offgridcabins, etc. I avoid any sub that isn't hobby or career related.
SkamanSam
I agree. I usually only browse subreddits for other things like r/worldnews, r/facepalm, antiwork, and others like it.
wintermute93
The defaults are almost all awful. Leave them. Then look up your hobbies and interests and find the main sub for each.
Derpmano47
Have a game or hobby you like? Look up a subreddit for it I follow the subreddit for all my fav games.
METROlD
r/explainlikeimfive r/[Whatever country your family is from] r/gadgets, r/dankmemes r/custompcbuilding r/onlyfans101, askscience, television
MrSnafleburger
The trick is to get NICHE. /gaming is gross /stardewvalley is lovely. /woodworking is instagram for pop projects. the bigger the worse imo
EnigmaWearingHeels
Interesting. Thank you!

For science fiction stories: r/HFY
omnipotentpasta
Also r/humansarespaceorcs
SparklePrince
Pro tip for farming karma. Go to trending subs, sort by rising, make a comment on a second level reply to the top comment on all newer posts
garfieldcfc
As someone who doesn't really use Reddit much but likes having it as an informational repository: r/OutOfTheLoop and r/WhatIsThisBug
ShiftingPattern
I mean... I'm in subreddits for everything from plant identification to appliance repair to sex toys. You do you.
rhubarbarian
I like r/idiotsincars, I get to see spectacular crashes about a week before they show up on imgur.
PocketCleric
r/pixelart is nice
S33KER
Game subreddits (they're also hit an miss), some meme subreddits and that's about it.
IMainReinhardt
My life is shit and I love schadenfreude so my favorite subreddit is r/watchpeopledieinside. you can almost die of secondhand cringe
IMainReinhardt
After that the rest of my subreddits are games I like and community support and memes for specific GSRM topics.
AgainstMethod
r/BirdsWithArms
crypticorb
r/toolgifs always has neat stuff, you often see it reposted on Imgur. There’s always interesting insights into different industries there.
valkyrient
/r/instantkarma always gives me a good laugh
iLynux
Don't listen to people who tell you to switch back to old reddit. Don't. New reddit is way more accessible, especially for newcomers.
SeriousSeamstress
The only one I've truly enjoyed on reddit is r/ATBGE. The rest I follow are leather, craft, breath of the wild stuff.
TheMasterOfTheMechanicalStuff
HealthygameGG is one i like :)
MisuseOfLiterally
r/gonewild ... mwahaha but in all seriousness, reddit is great for small specialised communities like a game or 3D printing..etc, /1
MisuseOfLiterally
for mindless browsing and just general memes/joke, youre better off on imgur. Although dont underestimate reddit's usefulness
YuckFuMaga
Gone wild is definitely a favorite
kanuckles
Without knowing your interest I would say r/catswithjobs, r/animalsbeingderps, r/childrenfallingover, r/confidentlyincorrect, and r/DiWHY
curseyoursudenbutinevitablebetrayal
Now I want to join reddit just for the cats sub and the DiWHY. I love cats and self infected disasters.
kanuckles
Then don't forget to add r/accidentalterrorism and r/instantkarma
Quixus
If you like r/DIWHY, check out r/ATBGE (Awful Taste But Great Execution)

Oh you want cats subs? https://www.reddit.com/r/Catsubs/wiki/index/

R/idiotsincars is my go to, but i drive truck for a living and see half that stuff myself. If i had a dash cam id be posting too
Leonon
r/HoneyFuckers
semioticmadness
The easiest and simplest is to go to your local subs. For example, I do r/newjersey. For a sizable state, it’s still accessible.
Inmate45
Want the stupidest subreddit with a surprising number of followers - join me (and 300k others) in r/BreadStapledToTrees
malachilenomade
/r/mst3k and /r/rifftrax are basically fans quoting riffs.
G0MeatCube
Nah fuck u lol
DarwinGreen5
I like r/anime_titties, r/girlswithhugepussies, r/tightpussy and /mildlyinfuriating.
DarwinGreen5
seriously... they're not porn.
IMainReinhardt
Don't forget r/cringe. They could make their first post this comment *rimshot*
DarwinGreen5
you've never been on these subreddits.
IMainReinhardt
Ive been on mildly infuriating plenty so I admit I would go anywhere near anything with those other titles. But, hey, jokes are jokes. Good?
Problemwoodchuck
For dog people: R/tippytaps, r/whatswrongwithyourdog, r/rarepuppers. for cats: r/illegallysmolcats, r/blackcats

Also r/OneOrangeBraincell, r/Blep and r/Blop
DatDarthCaedus
For dragons: r/dragonsfuckingcars and r/carsfuckingdragons (yes they're real, yes they're NSFW)

Hadn't visited it since I first heard about it, but just for you I checked; 61k for the first, and the latter was banned for having no mods.

Depends on what you like lol I use reddit for the niche content I like, the general crap I get here.
EnigmaWearingHeels
I mean really if we're being honest I want another place to post my content and run my mouth.

At least you're honest.

r/trapsarentgay is pretty good for that ... You may have to change content type, but hey whatever works

and r/gonewild is for safari pictures and wild animals.

Are there any shows or movies you like?
MemeAccountant
A few genuinly friendly subreddits: /r/tall. We worship the tall but accept all heights. /r/stellaris for thr game of the same name...
EnigmaWearingHeels
I am not tall but I know lots of tall people. I feel like I could be accepted there. Thanks for the recommendations!
MemeAccountant
/r/onepiece if you are a manga fan, these are just the friendliest ones i know.
MemeAccountant
If you want a weird one to lurk /r/subredditsimulator is only bots posting. And /r/havewemet pretend to be a small town who know each other.
MemeAccountant
/r/catsubs is a directory of catsubs. And /onetruegod is where we worship Nic Cage. Others: /realbeesfaketophats /savedyouaclick
LeSethX
Depends on what you want. I like r/HFY, r/talesfromtechsupport, r/maliciouscompliance, r/Catswithjobs, r/thecattrapisworking (cats in boxes)
EnigmaWearingHeels
This is the information I need! Thank you!!
omnipotentpasta
I would add r/humansarespaceorcs if you like HFY
LeSethX
I also recommend whenever you find a new subreddit, you check out their version of Hall of Fame or the top of All time to see the "classics"
EnigmaWearingHeels
Thank you!! It's so different from here!
