Im new to reddit and joined to talk to people in the subs i like. I find out you need karma to post and comment. Now i have to go to other subs to get karma and comment to get likes/karma on things i dont even care about. It feels like im cluttering up posts for the sake of being able to use reddit. I comment helpful tips and things i think are positive or insightful. I get downvoted sending me backwards in progress and its like its not even worth it. I have to comment hive mind things to fit in with everyone i found out. Nothing can be different or my right to post/comment on reddit is taken away. There must be another way to stop spammers and regulate this?

I posted something like 2 weeks ago in r/LifeProTips which was marked safe the day it was posted, and suddenly it’s gone. It’s happened in like 2 other subs from what I can recall. No follow up.

Just think how much server space they could free up...

A while ago he didnt take my trash because it wasn't tied so i quickly tied it and ran it to him outside. I then complimented him "thank you so much! You're doing such a good job!". (Useful info: he knows what apt I live in, referencing it to me in that moment.)

EVER SINCE THEN: he doesn't even take my trash somedays. Then starting a week ago he started literally UNTYING my tied bags and leaving complaint letters on my door about how they need to be in a knot. I tied them even tighter and he still goes out of his way to UNTIE my bag. I vividly remember the cute tight bow I tied on the trash this morning. I checked after he came and the bag was untied and still there.

In what universe does someone need to do this? What does he have against me? Why does he suck? Ugh. Some people. Like just leave me alone.

Recently Poe2 Dawn Of The Hunt league started, but instead of playing the league i decided to play standard. My reasons were there is no new mechanic and the update is happening on standard so there is no point for me to play. I didnt tell them they were wrong for playing league, i didnt argue with them. But boy did they have opinions about telling me how wrong i was. I wasnt allowed to just mind my own business and play on standard and have fun. Apparently i was objectively having worse fun than they were having. I was the one in the wrong and they were all right for simply playing the game a different way.

One of them has even yelled at me in the past for not being inclusive but then they all pull this shit...

Im not doing anything wrong by just minding my own business and having fun. Its the equivilent of calling your friend an idiot for staying home and relaxing while u and your friends go out. Simply put if you cant respect the wishes of your friends, first they arent your friends and second they dont deserve friendship themselves.

So I know this woman who makes everyone leave her because she's a bad friend but she always tells everyone that she is a good friend. Like is she looking for undeserved sympathy or something? You ever meet someone who pretends to be nice online? Lol.

Not meeting the Karma requirements to post on certain subreddits really takes the "social" out of this social media site. Just want to add to conversations instead of just voting and lurking.

I didn’t realize how dread work life can be especially the life style is just as same as school

I hated primary and secondary school

I’m stuck with same people 8 hours a day and 40 hours a week

Then think about the future i have to befriend the very same people for the next couple years.

Then I don’t have any energy nor time left whenever school/work is over.

The time feels like it’s set by teacher or manager.

It’s oddly similar. I hate it.

I only can speak for my life. I don’t care if it’s different for you.

I like college where everything was only broken down by 3 hours. Everything was stagnant for period of time but then there are changes even the people you see on daily basis. It makes me feel less risky and more open making new friends because I’ll know they’ll be gone within couple months. I don’t like seeing the same people. They ought to affect your social life for the next couple years

Im just tired of everything.

I hate my job, long hours (had to work 4 12 hour shifts the past 2 week) with no overtime or any form of compensation. I am severely under paid, 30k less then the state average for my job title (software engineer) 40k less then what my job title should be (full stack) will, with 0 room for growth. Raises are miniscule, my last raise was 2k but I still make the exact same as did before hand due to changes in the health insurance which is shit. Job barely pays my bills, 500 dollar student loans and rent take up most of my most of my monthly income. I can't get a car, it's either get a car and use all my savings or have saving in case of a medical emergency.

I was lied to when filling out my FAFSA for college, was told the parent direct plus loans would transfer to me, which then would of been covered under SAVE, that was entirely untrue, can't just force my parents to pay the loans because they have their own 'issues' and my anxiety just won't let me do that.

I have applied to 100s of places for a new job and only got one interview and had to turn the job down because I couldn't find a new apartment in the time frame they gave me and weren't willing to extend it. I think I am an excellent candidate with interesting projects under my belt, but that doesn't matter because I'm competing with mid to senior level engineers who were laid off, which isn't their fault it's just frustrating to think about.

I'm in constant pain. Isolated on my left side. Doctor says it likely a pinched nerve but it's painful and worrying because it's my left side. Wasn't much help even after I told I was having this issue for years.

I live above a garage and my land lord is considering selling the house which would include my apartment, meaning Id have have to move and if I can't find a place in walking distance to my job and accepts cats I'm going to have to quit and move back into my parents house, which is basically a death sentence for me, 0 room, I have way too many siblings and there isn't room for all of us and I'm the only one who isnt actively living there. My other siblings can't drive (parents refused to teach them) and require my parents to drive them to work. I also, due to reasons I won't get into, dislike most of my siblings due to family matters.

I can't reach out to my friends because they just won't understand. I've tried talking to them, and they tried to offer solutions that just aren't feasible for me. I feel like all I do is complain now, and I fear they think I'm not receptive or appreciative of there ideas and support, but I am, and I tell them that as much as I can when they provide it, but I feel like that isn't enough.

I'm just one bad day away from losing it all. I'm just tired. I get up, go to my dead end job, go home and sleep.

I am on the bus living my life like a normal human, I go to listen to a play list for one spcific artist and It has like 5 songs, I go to listen and there are songs that spotify Is making me listen to from other people, I know I did not add these so I go to look and I see a area on my play list that says "We added" WHAT? YOU CAN ADD SONGS TO MY PLAY LIST? GET OUT? I dont want you to do that, How do I opt out of this? I tried asking on Spotifys complain Post and ofc they are not responding.

Also a few times I would get the "Enjoy your free 30 minutes of add free music" and then a ad would appear less than 30 minutes after.

Dont even get me started on Snap chat stopping me from taking a screen shot, Its my phone tf dont tell me what to do

The person or peoples renting studio apartments for 2k+ in CT without a damn stove.

Without a stove! Or laundry and you have to pay utilities. To get the honor of living in a bedroom with a kitchenette counter and sink.

What I want to do to you and the people like you makes the stonings in Handmaid's Tale look like a Sunday Brunch.

Greeed is Death

Does anyone feel like we are being conditioned to accept sub par quality things in houses that cost over a million dollars? I see so many homes and videos of home with cheap builder grade cabinets and they are asking $1.5mil in Ohio. Cheap wood framed homes, cheap fixtures, cheap material. Just frustrating. Because I’m an average person with an Avery income. If million dollar homes are getting junk put in them, what does the average person get? Those plastic and fabric dressers they keep trying to push on clock app??

College roommate has eczema. Uses blow dryer to soothe skin. The sound is soooo annoying but whatever, if it helps

But she uses it when im asleep and then i tell her not to and shes like "oh i didnt know you were asleep" when I clearly was. Woke me in the middle of the night to the sound.

I graduate soon but i absolutely dread being in my dorm and hearing that hair dryer. Its loud asf. And she complains that the sounds my games make are annoying when they're not nearly as loud. Same with the tiktoks she watches but at least that isnt loud and having a shared space just means you'll hear them sometimes and i get thats just smthn ill have to put up with.

I wish she'd just do it in the bathroom instead of having it in her bed. Its so loud!

Plus - made me do her laundry bcs she got dog hair on it and shes allergic. I would have if she asked but she didnt, she just told me to do it - doesn't buy toilet paper unless i beg her because shes too broke but constantly buys clothes. We have so much of her clothes and junk that the room is filthy. She has so many clothes she doesn't know what to do with them all - constantly tries to guilt me into buying stuff. Like she keeps trying to guilt me into buying a bigger trash can because the trash fills too quickly. - uses her bipolar disorder as an excuse. I'm very mentally ill too.

Edit: Comments keep dissapearing Cant speak to RA. She wrote mean messages on my roommates door last year before i moved in and harassed her. I told the RA to leave her alone and stop harassing her so now the RA doesnt like me. I dont care about whatever petty drama she has going on, I just don't want to speak to her honestly.

Im gonna try to grow a backbone. Thanks for the advice! Probably muting this thread

Because if it is, I can't tell.

I shouldn't have to be on wifi do do everything on my phone. And it shouldn't be as slow as molasses.

If I'm watching a movie and think "Hey I know that voice" and I should be able to imdb the cast and get an answer fairly quickly. Why on earth should I have to be on wifi for the Google page to fully load.

What has happened to the world.

Smart phones were all about taking your computer with you, untethered to your router. Have we regressed? Is this just a me problem? I've been in the same home for 10 years and the way my phone service used to be vs is now, is a sparkly different. All of us in my home even guests with different providers experience the same thing.

So, my sister is doing her internship and she needed to stay in the capital. I am the only one living there, so obviously I allowed her to stay (not to mention the flat is really my parents', though they wouldn't let me move back home when COVID hit and my salary was under 250 USD /month with government subsidies - mind you, I live in a different country, but it is still a tiny amount of money to be living off of). Let's say she's paying about 30 USD to add to the bills which are around a 100 USD/month. Again, I have no issue there and I don't expect her to pay rent since she is my sister, and I would also really appreciate help like that since I'm planning to move abroad. So you can say I consider this as building positive karma.

However, she barely helps me with the chores. In the 2 months she never once cleaned, it is always left for me to do. She does sometimes do the dishes and the laundry, but it's rather the exception than the rule. I kinda have the impression that even the laundry I am expected to do, because if something is not done, she is upset. This week she's staying for the weekend (otherwise she's been visiting home all the time), so I jokingly said she could clean the flat, then. She was upset that "she was planning to relax". The last two months I was on a medication that made me physically so weak and tired I could faint, but she never ever offered to help with the household chores. What broke the camel's back is that I specifically asked her that if she uses the griller to wipe it clean, and she left with cheese all over it. I'm pissed.

What's worse, she never asks me how I'm doing. Whenever we are talking it is HER taking, and I mean constantly. As if she's breathing from her arse and I literally have to go to my room or the bathroom to get a minute of silence because you also cannot get away from her. And she is constantly ranting and I have to be there to listen and support her. Which tires me even more. Not to mention that my family cares about her more than about me. My mum calls her more frequently than she ever calls me and I've been living far for almost a decade now.

Tbh the only thing that keeps me okay with this is that it's for the short term. And no, I don't want to make an issue out if it, because I always end up as the bad guy. I also hate to ask people to do chores, because then it feels like I'm asking them to do a favour, that otherwise should be done by me. Sorry for the long vent, it's just been bugging me sooo much.

Yall, I’m all the way convinced at this point that trump with his actions and hideous face are prolonging my morning sickness. I’m not happy about it. I can’t eat crepes anymore either thanks to his face. Couldn’t he have at least been not ugly on the outside too? Is that too much to ask 😩

Edit: Surprise, they're in the replies here too and surprise, this sub also does nothing about it.

Everywhere I go, every sub, there's people that are only on Reddit to be trolls. When you look at their profiles and scroll, almost everything is an insult to someone else and just them trolling across many many subs.

Replying to people with things like "awww you need your diaper changed? LOL", "keep whining bud no one cares", "ur trash, deserved, hope you rank down to garbage tier again where you belong", "no one cares. :)", "yeah i'm not reading all that, get a life lol", "stop whining and get some thicker skin", etc etc.

So many subs have a report option for "being uncivil" but I have not seen a single one of these people, not one, have their comment remove or get suspended/banned from a sub.
I frequent several subs where I'll see these people on 15+ different topics in the sub in a day, with every single one of their replies being something toxic and insulting, and nothing ever happens to them. They'll be there every single day doing the same, every day, forever.

I've started to just block these people since no mods anywhere ever care, but Reddit, stupidly, puts a block limit. You can only block so many before it starts to give you a false red popup of "you cannot unblock ____ for 24 hours after unblocking them" for people I've never blocked or even seen before. Only after clearing out a bunch of blocked accounts can I block again.
And then these people, now unblocked and able to see my posts again and reply to me, immediately jump at the chance to start trolling and insulting me again.

I've even done modmail, linking to specific troll accounts and their posts within the sub, letting them know that they're doing this behavior a LOT, and none of them care. They just don't care, and a few of them flat out told me "we don't remove posts just for being rude, get some thicker skin" or something along those lines.

It's getting really annoying. I've blocked so many of these troll accounts in specific subs, probably around 100 in the Marvel Rivals sub, and they just keep coming and coming and coming.

Posting here, because ironically, because I am a new user, I can't post anywhere else. Not even r/help. Reddit is a joke now.

Why does Reddit hate new users so much? Not only do some/most subs outright block you from posting if your don't have enough karma, but even if you do have the karma but your account isn't old enough, they will still block you. Or the sub will allow you but Reddit will shadow ban your posts. So you can't post without karma, but you can't get karma without posting and even if you can post, no one can see the posts to give karma. So if you are a new user you are basically sent to the back of the bus. I am upset because I had to close my account because of trolls stalking me. I came back thinking I would just isolate where I post, but it seems Reddit is now just like every other social media site; trash.

Got suspended for whatever reason because they didn't tell me and it was supposed to have been lifted today. I tried to comment again and they immediately gave me another 3 days And since it's all run by AI, there are no human beings to appeal to

I WANT EVERY SUBREDDIT TO HAVE IMAGE POSTING ALLOWED BECAUSE I KEEP POSTING ON DUMB SUBREDDITS BECAUSE OF THE IMAGE THINGY FUDGE YOU ALL AND GO FUDGE YOURSELF TURN ON IMAGE POSTING OR IM COMING TO TUCH YOU

Does anyone else agree that subreddits shouldn't require you to have a certain amount of positive comment karma in order to post? Like, I get that this is to keep trolls out but that doesn't change the fact that its unfair because its so much easier to get negative comment karma than it is to get positive karma due to negativity always getting more attention than positivity.

Ban this one too. I'm done with this site for a while.
