reddit General

  • 🔧 At about Midnight EST I am going to completely fuck up the site trying to fix something.
Would these people evaporate if they stop bringing up their sexuality everywhere?

Why do you think it's called sexual  identity? It's their entire identity. That is all these people are. The only thing that defines them as individuals is either rugmunching or buttfucking. That's why they're offended so easily: their entire world is da gae, everything that happens to them is an insult to da gae and because da gae is the only thing in their lives, every insult is suicide material.
 
Looks like Reddit is following Discord in rolling out age verification for UK users.
(Archive seems to be shitting the bed, so here's a direct link)
TL;DR:

Reddit was built on the principle that you shouldn’t need to share personal information to participate in meaningful discussions. Unlike platforms that are identity-based and cater to the famous (or those that want to become famous), Reddit has always favored upvoting great posts and comments by people who use whimsical usernames and not their real name. These conversations are often more candid and real than those that force you to share your real-world identity.

However, while we still don’t want to know who you are on Reddit, there are certainly situations where it would be helpful if we knew a little more about you. For example, in the new age of AI, we would like to be able to confirm whether you are a human being or not (more to come about that later). And it would be helpful for our safety efforts to be able to confirm whether you are a child or an adult. Also, there are a growing number of jurisdictions that have considered or have passed laws requiring platforms to verify the ages of their users.

If you are in the UK…

Notably, the UK Online Safety Act has new requirements to implement additional measures to prevent children from accessing age-inappropriate content. So, starting July 14 in the UK, we will begin collecting and verifying your age before you can view certain mature content.

We have tried to do this in a way that protects the privacy of UK redditors. To verify your age, we partner with a trusted third-party provider (Persona) who performs the verification on either an uploaded selfie or a photo of your government ID. Reddit will not have access to the uploaded photo, and Reddit will only store your verification status along with the birthdate you provided so you won’t have to re-enter it each time you try to access restricted content. Persona promises not to retain the photo for longer than 7 days and will not have access to your Reddit data such as the subreddits you visit. Your birthdate is never visible to other users or advertisers, and is used to support safety features and age-appropriate experiences on Reddit. You can learn more about how age verification works here and about what content is restricted here.

For the rest of Reddit…

As laws change, we may need to collect and/or verify age in places other than the UK. Accordingly, we are also introducing globally an option for you to provide your birthdate to optimize your Reddit experience, for example to help ensure that content and ads are age-appropriate. This is optional, and you won’t be required to provide it unless you live in a place (like the UK) where we are required to ask for it. And, again, your birthdate is never visible to other users or advertisers.

As always, you should only share what personal details you are comfortable sharing on Reddit. Using Reddit has never required disclosing your real world identity, and these updates don't change that.
Seems it's already being rolled out to UK-based users:

Not surprised the Reddit admins chose to comply, they don't have the bottle of Dear Leader to tell Ofcom where to shove it.

Archive- Pooner transitions and men start treating him like a man. This is very problematic
Since coming out to my (male) best friend as a trans man, he's 'unlocked' his locker room talk around me. self.ftm
As the title says, to be honest. I had a huge amount of respect for him before I figured out I was transgender, but since coming out, he's relaxed what's clearly been a filter he was using to converse with me before. I've heard him coming out with some remarkably crap, out of pocket things regarding women, other men, and life in general, though it's the women-stuff that bothers me the most. Part of me thinks it shouldn't bother me as much as it does, or that I'm being unfair by judging him in this way, but I can't help seeing him in a very different, and if I'm honest, slightly disappointing light. Please tell me others have experienced this. I'm also ready to be told I'm wrong.
The council of doods decides that you should nag him like a woman. That's how real men(tm) talk

Cutting the Gordian Knot- This is your only good friend? Definitely drop him. In isolation you won't have to navigate male friendships.

Has 0 understanding of the male experience, transitions anyway. Many such cases.

Be an obstinate faggot over every slight disagreement. Remember, you are always right and they are always wrong and must be changed, dood.

Dudes rock and I don't get it? How could this be? Am I not a man? No... it's the men that are all wrong! principal skinner.jpg

Irony of ironies, you can access all the porn you want if you aren't logged in.

Denying UK-users access to the site and thereby mitigating UK users being at "risk" is compliance though.
I'm interested to see the first site that doesn't truly comply. Hopefully Hiro (4chan) just didn't see Ofcom's email or something.
 
Apparently there is subreddit called AsexualDating where self-proclaimed asexuals can post dating ads in hopes of attracting a fellow socially retarded redditor to date.

This is one of the worst dating profiles I've ever seen but it has enough positive traits in it that I have to assume it's genuine and not someone's trollish attempt to write hot garbage. I get trying to be honest but you can't write down dealbreaker after dealbreaker and expect a unicorn of a man to come along, be fine with all of that, and fix you. Especially not on Reddit.

Yeah.
  • Goes way past introvert and into full-on antisocial territory
  • Severe trust issues
  • General mental issues
  • Apparently nigh emotionless and comes off as uncaring
  • Seems to be bit of a an edgelord
  • Really likes cats (gives off crazy cat lady vibes)
The list goes on.

EDIT:

LMFAO at Asexual BSDSM
