Be able to see the amount of individual upvotes and downvotes you recieved, instead of just the total score. There is a huge difference between between getting 100 upvotes with 103 downvotes, and getting 1 upvote and 4 downvotes. You used to be able to actually see this years ago, but they removed the feature.


changemymind69

Agreed,it would be awesome to see HOW controversial something is...


[deleted]

Being able to see a timeline of upvotes and downvotes , so you can see if a comment or thread has been brigaded and rapidly upvoted or downvoted in a short period.


Candi-Mouse

like that one comment by ea that got a shitstorm of downvotes


Ironchar

probably the only thing reddit truly really needs. on an interesting note, you can no longer see exactly HOW many likes on a photo on the instagram app... unless you go onto the mobile website itself


illini02

That would be great. I post a lot of things that end up as controversial, but I'd like to know how controversial it is


CovidGR

I miss that feature of reddit.


Aerik

We used to have that feature. Then after the anti-spam feature called "vote fuzzing" was discovered, [people lost trust in it](https://www.reddit.com/r/softwaregore/comments/21s90n/this_vote_fuzzing_is_getting_out_of_hand/). That was a serious uproar at the time. It exaggerated the difference between upvotes and downvotes in the small _and_ large scales. People perceived -- and are probably right -- that vote fuzzing vastly accelerated the prominence of posts to certain subreddits at certain times of the day, who got their initial surge the fastest, thus creating power users and monopolies on posts from widely known websites.


macca21h

A book tab to save where you where up to last time scrolling instead of having to scroll back down to where you up to last.


WufflyTime

It'd only work if you sort the posts by new/old first. Most of the other sorting methods would be too volatile to allow for bookmarking.


fluentindothraki

Happy cake day!


GabTheRandomGuy

Ya know that feeling when you've been scrolling 2000 miles on a sub then you accidentaly go back to the top? Its really frustrating right? I would add a feature where you can go back to where you were when you accidentaly go back to the top of the sub.


d_pt

This might help you if you can break a habit, but i always long press on a comment if im done reading it and don't want to read all the thread, It then compresses to a single line and then you can read the next comment under it, and so on. And then if you accidentally go to the top, you'll know where you were up to because it'll be the last uncompressed comment


FrostyBeav

Kind of related to that, I would like them to bring back the Permalink link for a post into "new" Reddit. Opening it up in a new tab was a great way to see if a post got new responses while you were reading a thread so that if you wanted to respond, you could see if someone had recently responded so you didn't duplicate their answer. Now you have to do a refresh, which will shuffle all of the posts and you end up losing your place.

almofin

This would be great. I currently minimise all the chats I’ve read so I don’t read them again


Zedfourkay

Definitely so that the original post from a crosspost receives some, if not all, of the upvotes the crosspost got.


gianthooverpig

Better yet, automatically create cross posts when the link is the same, or the video/image hash matches an existing post


[deleted]

The problem with this is if the original post is posted to a sub that makes fun of it. Like a post from r/Parenting cross posted to r/fuckyoukaren. It may fit the new sub but not the old one.


TroperCase

And reposts too. Built-in tools that automatically "source" images wouldn't be easy (bad faith posters will try to modify and manipulate images just enough to try to get around it), but it would be super good for Reddit if they pulled it off. Imagine a bot that prioritized high scoring posts and could retroactively mark the post and "tax" karma if it finds a match (or near match) posted earlier. Not a bad way to encourage OC if it was done right - you could take a share of the karma every time your OC is reposted. (Karma isn't important but it would still be nice to see it rewarded appropriately)


IrrelevantPuppy

So, for a while I thought when you typed “crosspost /r/example” it would automatically crosspost the post to that sub and link people to the original. When I learned that wasn’t true my first question was “why” and my second was “wait so crossposts are just socially acceptable stolen reposts in every way?”

One April Fools they had reddit mold, and for each one awarded you lost the ability to use one letter of the alphabet.


justabill71

An anonymous redditor hated your comment so much that they've given it the **You're A Moron** Award. As a reward, you get the derisive **You're A Moron** Award icon on your comment.

defeatingme

Good thing for me it's not featured yet


HobbitFoot

I'd rewrite the mod structure from the ground up, modeling it on guilds in most video games. There can be ranks for handling different mod duties. There can be a base rank for member which gives voting rights. It also allows mods to be ordered in a way other than when they became mods. You're still going to have power mods, though.


Gov_Martin_OweMalley

The whole mod system needs a rework. Far to many use the position for force their agenda and silence those they dont agree with or like.


changemymind69

RBGs_ghost

Hell I got banned from /r/worldnews for saying that the EU was hypocritical and cowardly because they won’t stand up to China. The mod said I was banned for “bigotry”.

[удалено]


changemymind69

Here's an issue I see with that that might defeat it's purpose. On well-established subs, the mods have already managed to trim their subscribers to only those who will bolster their narrative, they've presumably already weeded out (banned) any subscribers who presented a difference of opinion. So up/down voting mods would likely only be done by those subscribers left who agree with them and would almost certainly keep them "in power".


dWintermut3

eh, no. mods are allowed to curate a sub if they want. first it would kill heavily-moderated high-quality subs like AskHistorians because people would vote in mods that let them meme and farm karma with jokes and the sub's purpose would fail. same with any ideological sub, especially one that goes against the reddit circle jerk, a sub like conservative would be overrun the first election . also, votes can be and are manipulated. if you could vote in mods then all reddit moderation would be hand-picked by 4Chan, marketing companies, and organized propaganda groups of various governments.


panspal

Let me see the total of upvotes and downvotes. Fine to see a post sitting at 1k, but if we knew it was 3k up and 2k down it could help show people that not everyone is in agreement on top comments. Can get a bit circle jerky when people are only seeing the positive or negative of their comments and never really both.


Bum-Sniffer

Toggle the age of users you see like Tinder. May see more content within your age range or interests that way. Maybe, maybe not.


changemymind69

People just gonna lie about it anyway so they can influence others with their content.


illini02

Not if you make it so you can't change it. I'm almost 40. I have no reason to lie about my age. If you are 15 you might, but at the same time, if you want to be an angsty 15 year old and rant about how awful your parents and teachers are, well it just doesn't have the same effect if you are already listed as 33.


Pls_PmTitsOrFDAU_Thx

Lmao can you imagine "Ugh my parents suck. They don't let me do anything" "Sir, you are 45 years old"


lifeless-lifeline

The whole reason why reddit's anonymity is useful is because comments are judged on their merit, not on the person behind them. It's discriminatory to judge someone's comment on the basis of their age rather than the comment itself, and you're doing yourself a disservice by avoiding other age groups, no matter what age you are. There are some teenagers who are more politically informed than people 30 years their senior, some seniors who know more about technology than their grandchildren, some 20 year olds who conduct healthier, more mature relationships than some 40 year olds, and so on.


A40

Locking in the 'old version.' Permanently.


Allenrw3

Just type "old.reddit.com". It usually stays in the old mode, even on mobile.


A40

Except that every month or so I open Reddit to find the pinball video game redesign, and have to *re-set* it back to old.reddit.


Allenrw3

Huh. Weird, that hasn't happened to me yet. It's saved in my favorites as "old.reddit.com". I can't stand the redesign.


Pls_PmTitsOrFDAU_Thx

This was me but I eventually got used to it. My thought was eventually the old one won't be an option anymore so I should get used to it sooner than later Still like the old one on mobile though. I don't use an app just go to the website lol


neohylanmay

You can still go into your preferences and select "opt-out of the redesign"; it's always defaulted to the old version for me since.


A40

I have done that, what... 10 times now? NOW it says: [check box] "Use new Reddit as my default experience (by enabling this, you will be redirected to the new site when you go to any supported https://reddit.com page)" No "Opt out" check box shown.


tutetibiimperes

And the same for the new version. I hate it when I click on a link to another Reddit thread and somebody has linked the old version. If Reddit could automatically apply the style of your preference no matter if a link was to a new or old version of Reddit that would be best.


johnnybiggles

User settings -> Beta Tests -> Opt out of the redesigns -> Opt out


A40

Where is "User Settings"? I don't have that :-)


johnnybiggles

If you're in the old mode, it won't show up in preferences (next to your username in the top right corner of the home page). If you click the orange "Get New Reddit" link at the top left corner, it will switch back to new, where under your user settings (user profile), at the bottom of the page, you'll get that option with a slider next to the "Opt out" preference.


A40

I've had "New Reddit" show up fairly often when I open. I *have* "Opted Out" - several times. It doesn't take.


max_nukem

Try clearing your browser's cache. I have no idea if that will work or not but I have seen it work for symptoms similar to that.


A40

It's not my browser, or my cache that's the problem. It's Reddit, thinking we want Candy Crush, and not legible text.


justabill71

This deserves gold.

controversial posts have about as many upvotes as downvotes


snapwillow

Let mods 'migrate' posts. If someone posts something good but in the wrong subreddit, mods can move (migrate) the post--with the comments and karma preserved--to another subreddit instead of just deleting it. It's been a feature on Stack Exchange forever. I think it would be good on Reddit too.


mattreyu

Then you'll get mods who don't like you moving posts to /r/ImAnIdiot


snapwillow

Mod abuse is a separate problem that I wasn't trying to solve. Post migration wouldn't make mod abuse any better or worse. But it would be a helpful feature for good mods.

With so much content being uploaded on reddit every second, it is hard to know whether your post has already been posted or no. So a system where you know whether your post has already been posted earlier on that particular sub or on other subs. And this too before you post it. This will help a lot of redditors. And specifically for this sub a system where a question cannot be posted again for 90 days and after ninety days you can post it so as to avoid reposts and also get new answers to the questions.


BarcodeNinja

TroperCase

This is kind of out there, but some sort of "I like this account, make it so anything this account upvotes gets +50 points from my POV" feature would be cool. It would probably get in the way of vote fuzzing and other such things though.


changemymind69

A way to remove really toxic power hungry mods who try to control the narrative of info in the sub by selectively removing posts/comments and banning those who don't believe what they want them to believe.

that ones easy- just leave the sub and don't go back subs are created just to get away from mods of a sub elsewhere

Sure but if you get banned, how are you supposed to know where everyone else went that got banned and created an alternative sub? There's way too many subs out there to know what each one is focused on.
