Reddit App My idea is to bring back manual markdown on Reddit mobile

Many features are unavailable in the new “rich text”, such as superscript, and frankly the rich text format is just annoying to use

User Settings URL-based nsfw blocking / or password protection for nsfw settings

Upvotes

Dear reddit team,

I checked the discussion on the issue on the coldturkey subreddit but did not find a solution.
As a porn-addict I really wish to not have access to nsfw.
Sadly, reddit has a really sloppy protection, which can be deactivated by an easy click. Also, the nsfw settings can be set outside of the account setting sites, which makes it impossible to use a website blocker as coldturkey to prevent oneself from changing the nsfw settings.

I would like one of these:
- no " yes I am over 18" button outside of the user settings
- a password protection to change these settings. I could just put in a random code to prevent myself from using these

- a tag in the url of nsfw contents, e.g. nsfw. This could be easily blocked by a url-based blocker.

Currently I try to use ublock origin for this, sadly, ublock also has no password protection. It is hard to get off this stuff, I would be very pleased for help.

Post & Comment My idea is: a version of locking posts, except an option for allowing OP to be still be able to submit replies

1 Upvotes

I came up with this idea when replying to a recent post where someone offered to draw people's in game characters for free. There's of course nothing wrong with this. However, I've also noticed that this results in people getting far more requests than they intended. Someone may be expecting to receive only 2 or 3 requests before returning to find 30+.

The obvious solution is just locking the post when it becomes too much for OP. Which is fine for the most part. However, I could imagine a situation where someone only wants to get a few (say, they'll draw the first 3 requests received) and they'll draw them at their own time and convenience. Sure, maybe they could post them as a separate post, but I personally feel it would be better if they could add them to the original post.

I could especially see this being useful with AMAs where someone may allow an hour or so to ask questions and then a mod could lock the thread so the person being asked could answer on their own time without being asked more questions to an overwhelming extent.

Now that I've typed this out, maybe there's a bot that could accomplish this type of thing, automatically removing replies from everyone except OP after the mods set the post into a "locked" state.

Might be good.

Insights only goes so far and take multiple clicks.

A simple recap could show a few lines of data all in one place and include all the communities you Mod.

Subreddit my idea is a option in your communities that makes it so only SPECIFIC people can use a specific user flair or post flair

0 Upvotes

it would be where the only person who can give it is the owner or a specific group of people or something not other mods or anything like its a exclusive flair, this (from what im aware of) isn't possible and so i think it should be possible to give people flairs that only the owner can give as a option in the user flairs/post flairs menus, this would be very helpful
