When you try to edit a Reddit comment in their mobile web app, it deletes all line breaks from your comment so you have to remember to manually put them back before submitting.

The other big issue I have is that when you type in and edited comment, it will omit spaces between words at random. JFC, there’s no reason to use anything but a vanilla HTML input element (because only markdown formatting is supported), but they somehow fucked up basic text input anyway!

My last little gripe is that nothing in the interface tells you that markdown is supported, which is extra dumb because the desktop interface tries so hard to hide the fact that markdown even exists.

(And yes, there are a host of other annoyances, but I’m trying to limit my criticisms to things that can only be explained by incompetence.)

    So I reported a thread in one of those rancid niche alt-right ‘frienworld’ type sub where a user had a detailed plan about ramming his car into people at a Trans Rights rally happening two days from then.

    Admins responded ‘We gave them a warning, thanks for letting us know’.

    a day later in a completely unrelated sub I post the reply ‘It is a moral good to punch nazis’, and not only was I banned, but so was everyone in my building (we share fiber).

    That was the last straw.

    I mean I’ve made tons of accounts before and losing the account wasn’t the issue.

    It was the ridiculous disparity in punishments between right-wing legitimate premeditated threats of violence, and a mostly humorous indirect one.

    Fuck every reddit admin in the ass with 2 tons of red-hot industrial rebar.

      Holy crap. Well for now you’ve found a good home for Nazi-punchers, I can say that much.
