Are there any Reddit rules?Īs a general rule, reddiquette dictates that you should be a civilized person and remember that there's always a human being on the other side of the screen. All of the submissions require a title, which Reddit encourages to be interesting but devoid of hyperbole and self-promotion.

There are four basic submissions: link, image, video and text. There are other tabs, like "Rising" - which features posts that are new and are getting upvotes quick - and "Controversial" - which uses an algorithm to determine which posts are the subject of conflicting opinions by looking at the fluctuation of the upvotes and downvotes. This is done to ensure that the Best page remains fresh. This is a personalized view that will also eliminate things that you have already clicked through the next time you load the front page.

If you are registered, then the default tab is called "Best." It features the most-voted posts from all the subreddits but it takes into account other things, like the submissions in which you have spent time before or the subreddits you have joined. The score is determined by subtracting the downvotes from the upvotes. If you are not registered, the default tab is "Hot," which is basically a view of the submissions with the highest scores over a period of time. Reddit has a front page in which certain submissions are featured, thanks to different algorithms. In the same way, you can reply to people's comments by clicking reply.Īnd finally, registered users can upvote or downvote any of the submissions, which is the way that Reddit makes submissions surface to the front page. They can also comment on other people's submissions by just clicking on the open comment field right under the submission. They can also join the subreddits, an action that will affect how Reddit's front page will look for you (more on this later). Registered users can make submissions to any of the public subreddits. You can also register and become more involved. Reddit is open to anyone to navigate and read freely. How do I submit to Reddit, comment and vote? If you are looking for NSFW topics, you will need to be registered and tick the "include NSFW results" checkbox. Just enter any topic you want and you will likely find it. There's a search field at the top of any page on the site. You'll need to follow the community guidelines as subreddits have been removed in the past for being dedicated to illegal activities or used as a rallying place for hate groups. If the subreddit of your dreams doesn't yet exist, you can make it yourself.
#WEB SITES LIKE REDDIT FULL#
The subreddits go through every hobby and topic imaginable all the way to the most extremely strange things like r/wolveswithwatermelons (which is exactly that, although it includes dogs, too), r/birdswitharms (people photoshopping arms on birds), or r/thomasthedankengine (which is full of people remixing the Thomas the Tank Engine theme with hip-hop tracks) Can I create my own subreddit? Other not-so-mainstream favorites are r/oddlysatisfying, which features videos and photos that are oddly satisfying r/CrappyDesign, dedicated to the many crappy designs that surround us and r/EarthPorn, which has stunning images of our Pale Blue Dot, not actual porn.Īnd that's just the tip of the iceberg.
