  • I think it’s likely:

    1. someone posted something that later gets banned
    2. in between the posting and the banning, you upvoted it
    3. at time of banning/removal or after, they can check the logs of users who upvoted it while it was “live”

    Also on reddit, removed posts and comments by subreddit mods can still be viewed if you have a direct link to it, or if you find it from a user’s profile instead of from the subreddit it was posted in. From there you may be able to vote on it still, although it’s pointless in most instances. However, Admin removed stuff likely cannot be found in the same way. Also a user deleting their own post or comment cannot be viewed in the same way either.

    Yep, I hate that Excel doesn’t open CSV files and treat every cell as “Text” considering that’s how a CSV stores the data. It loves to convert to scientific notation, or omit leading zeros, or omit trailing zeros on a decimal, or assume something is a date. I always have to update csv files to .txt instead and then import it via the wizard and manually select Text for all columns.







  • I occasionally open RiF (logged out) and get to see the current “front page” that for everyone (no longer catered to me), and with all the subreddits that have stayed private, been banned, etc. all sorts of weird posts are surfacing to the top for everyone.

    First of all, I see tons of subreddits I have no interest in, all about judgment of OP’s looks (/r/amiugly, /r/truerateme, /r/firstimpressions, /r/roastme, etc.), and I keep seeing /r/weddingdress posts trying to help people pick their wedding dress from multiple options. Such a hodge podge of disjointed and niche posts that certainly doesn’t feel like the broad “front page of the internet” anymore.


  • This is a good recommendation.
    When I was out of college for a while, I ended up meeting like-minded friends at a monthly retro-gaming tournament/event that was held at a local book/game store. We actually ended up working on some creative projects together as we all had schooling/degrees/experience in video production, writing, and comedy. That opened up the doors to meeting a much larger group of people in the local acting and stand-up comedy scene, as well as other creative fields. So now I have a nice group of friends that I’ve made as an adult, in a variety of friend circles all b/c I decided to check out some regular events at hobby shops.
