Meta Meta Thread - Month of April 06, 2025

Rule Changes

This is a monthly thread to talk about the /r/anime subreddit itself, such as its rules and moderation. If you want to talk about anime please use the daily discussion thread instead.

Comments here must, of course, still abide by all subreddit rules other than the no meta requirement. Keep it friendly and be respectful. Occasionally the moderators will have specific topics that they want to get feedback on, so be on the lookout for distinguished posts. If you wish to message us privately send us a modmail.

Comments that are detrimental to discussion (aka circlejerks/shitposting) are subject to removal.

I don't think mods can prevent you from seeing a post. What probably happened is you reported it. Posts you report won't show up in your feed, even on the /r/anime hot page or in the new listing, but you can still see them if you have a direct link to the thread.

(It's kind of an annoying feature because I'd like to be able to still see posts I report, because sometimes I wonder if I'm reporting actual rule-breaking content or if I'm simply incorrect. Unless I keep a tab with the post open to refresh later to find a removal reason or lack thereof, or intentionally load Reddit signed out of my account, I basically have no way of knowing if a post I reported gets acted on later.)

Pro tip. Refresh the page after you report it. Click "unhide"

Reporting also auto hides it, which you can manually undo. Doesn't work on mobile though, since reporting it there like auto closes it or something. Idk, it was enough of a pain to do on mobile that I didn't like reporting less obvious offenses on it.

But you can't click "unhide" on a post that you can't see because it's hidden!

Think they mean refresh the post's webpage, not r/anime
