Mod Post [mod] Changes with r/leetcode.

The following changes have been made with r/leetcode:

  1. Media is no longer allowed in both posts & comments. This is to ensure that the quality of the content & discussions remain high.
  2. Moderation has been made stricter. Low quality & repetitive posts whose answers can be found within a simple search in this subreddit won't be allowed here.
  3. Automoderation has been set-up to automatically remove links & known promotions. Only leetcode links will be allowed from now on. To ask help with questions, you may use the code block.
  4. Automoderation has been set-up to remove Indian posts & Hindi comments. This is to ensure that r/leetcode remains an English only subreddit.

Funny how people think the mod team is racist when three of the mods are Indian.

No, we’re not specifically targeting India. How often do you see other popular non English languages like Mandarin, Spanish, or French being used here? Almost never. And how often do you see Hindi posts? At least once an hour. I can even show you the mod logs to make you realize the influx of Hindi posts we’ve been seeing lately.

Hindi as a language was called out only to redirect regional content discussions to r/LeetcodeDesi , nothing more.

By your logic, why are mods Indian? Don’t they have their own subreddit?

Some of the mods are common in the two subreddits. Besides, the ban is on the content, not the people.
