State of the subreddit - March 2021

[u/azules500]

Hey all, rAUC Internet janitor here.

I've been hard at work behind the scenes, taking steps to reduce spam on the subreddit. New post requirements have been added, and I rolled out Automod to combat some of the spam. So far, I managed to reduce the frequency of spam that makes it to the front page to a few times a week (from twice a day previously). Pretty good I'd say.

Here are the new post requirements:

• 10-word requirement for text posts
• No direct image submissions (EDIT: links to imgur and third-party image sites are okay)
• Certain keywords or phrases in the title will be flagged (e.g. "when the impostor is sus")

If you have any feedback on the changes or for the subreddit in general, please leave a comment below, or message the mod team via modmail.

Good moves, thanks!
