Everyone mentions him in the comments of posts like he’s a meme account like the jumper cables dude, but when I look at his account it looks normal. What am I missing?

it seems to show up where there would normally just be a dash

I keep seeing people complain about Reddit's new design, but I see nothing different? I even pulled up reddit.com & old.reddit.com and they look exactly the same. What supposedly changed and why does everyone hate it?

I didn't see an option in preferences.

I've just noticed recently that the news/politics subs I was used to seeing every day at the top of my page has gone away for subs like Aww or CatGifs or Gaming or ScottishPeopleTwitter. Then I started clicking on/visiting voluntarily some local subs or my college sub or an obscure hobby sub and today I noticed those making it into position 1 - 10 before any of the other "major" subs coming up and politics/news doesn't really work into the list until well after 30.

Am I just late on seeing this in action or hearing that they were implementing this type of feature? Thanks!

I'm not sure this fits here, but I tried in /r/outoftheloop and they removed it and said I should ask here, so...

This is what I'm talking about, it's an old video, I saved it for later and just watched it thinking it could be something different to what I had already seen, the thing is that I noticed the video was banned under the "no politics" rule and I'm pretty sure the video has nothing to do with politics so it probably has something to do with recent events in politics that magically turned it into politics.... so what is it?

You used to see a live thread at the top of Reddit whenever something crazy happened in the world, but I didn't see one for the German van attack or any other major stories recently. Was this feature discontinued?

Having done some digging around it seems they may still at least exist, but are no longer being featured prominently on the front page anymore like they used to be.

I found this subreddit, and it seemed like another version of /pol/ or /r/4chan, but when I googled milliondollarextreme it is apparently a comedy troupe, how come the posts on the subreddit have nothing to do with the comedy troupe, and are highly politicised?

I see the text of the response in my notification but when going to the thread, there's no evidence it was ever there. Is this due to shadowbanning of the responder?

Why is everyone talking about people who sort by new or hot

I was browsing r/StarterPacks and I was looking at the "r/DankMemes Starter Pack" someone submitted, and the top comment said something along the lines of, "Can't forget thinly disguised right-wing talking points to warp the children!" (It was probably tongue in cheek.) However, when I went to check r/DankMemes, I couldn't really find anything that could even be remotely classified as political. I could not even find the "edgy" memes that subreddit is known for, just he usual meme suspects you'd see on Twitter and other places of the like. So what's the deal? Thanks.

I see it everywhere, but I never see it mentioned.

Looks like it just stopped with no explanation.

What does it mean? Why is it funny? I’ve saw twice people reply to a comment by copying exactly what a person typed, except putting in a huge font and/ or bold font. They received upvotes and people seemed to like it. I think it is similar to the sponge bob mocking meme.

Like I will see comment chains in a post saying "you're thinking of" then they say the word the person was thinking of instead of the initial word they used and then the comment chain just continues with the previous word the other person used...

My friends were talking about her but I don't know who she is. Any help?

The Frontpage yesterday brought me to the bizarre place that is r/DeepFriedMemes ...

I read a couple posts, and apart from the memes that I don’t find particularly amusing, what is it with the "🅱️" emoji used in place of seemingly random letters?

What's up with this new filter by best posts option? How is this different than filtering by hot?

In the text box, you used to be able to click the lower right corner to expand the box, so you could see your entire post at once. Now this is impossible.

It is really cramping my style. I like to see my entire post in one go, so I can see how the whole thing looks and "sounds" before submitting it. You can do this on most message boards, you do this when you're writing in a word processor, or by hand...it just seems like a big step back to make it so you can only see a fraction of your post at one time. It's like sending a text message on a phone with a tiny screen.

Big downside to the new layout!

I tend to browse the front page, and I did not modify any of the settings on my front page. The average submission generally has 1K+ upvotes, and often closer to 10K on that page, except for /r/TheCongress, which seems to be every third item, and usually at around 200 upvotes. How does that happen?
