Comic Strips
Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

If she's so sick of it, and they're not doing anything about it, why does she still stay on Reddit?
Also, why are you re-posting this Reddit-specific drama on Lemmy? Let her make an account and post her stuff if she wants
The act of complaining constantly while not doing anything about it is a huge part of what I dislike about the angry white conservative culture I grew up in. It's such a widespread cultural issue, and while it fits my conservative family members like a glove, it is not unique to them.
Is Reddit-specific drama frowned upon here? I was hoping to make fun of reddit, I guess I'll just die
I'm glad I never made an account on Reddit. The whole vibe of the site just throws me off completely. The snark subs were one of those reasons
Just here to say, fuck reddit.
The same reddit that allowed to nuke my account based on false bot claims and then refused to roll it back even though the perpetrators conveniently deleted their accounts shortly afterwards? checks out
Reddit Admins hate user interactions. User interactions cost more money to oversee than passive readers.
Much of Reddit policy boils down to "get unsponsored users off our platform". They don't want your comments. They don't want your posts. They don't want your drama. They don't want your input. They want you to show up, look at the sponsored links, maybe click a few, validate the advertisers' spending on media influence, then keep fucking scrolling.
If you're doing anything other than that, you're a net lose to the company and you are uninvited from the platform.
Its a bit like going into a casino and winning money. Casinos don't exist to pay you. Social Media doesn't exist to platform you. You're supposed to be a revenue generator, not a cost center. If you behave otherwise, the business will cut you just like they try to cut every other net-negative expense.
makes sense. too bad reddit turned out that way though. but then again - was there ever a platform that didn't went to shit? Steve Hoffman's forum is probably the only place that dodged the bullet mostly because it's a bunch of nerds comparing high frequencies on Frank Zappa remasters
was there ever a platform that didn’t went to shit?
I guess you can argue that 4chan started out as shit and had nowhere better to go.
I might also note that platforms are, at their heart, reflections of the people who run them. And people get older, they leave certain platforms and join others, their tastes and interests change over time.
I think Reddit was doomed the day Aaron Swartz left way back in 2007. And I tend to see platforms and websites fumble the bag at the transition. No idea what's going to happen to Wikipedia once Jimmy Wales is gone, for instance.
But new stuff comes in to fill the gaps. Its hard to see in hindsight, but there's always green shoots on the horizon. You often simply don't realize how nice a thing is until its gone.
yeah, i guess that's the most sober response.
The same reddit that allows subreddit mods to get you banned site-wide on a whim
i got my account nuked right after some burner account started asking me to add them to my sub. after politely declining, dude just went on comment bombing spree, so i banned him and them my account got stalked into permaban. Which is stupid because I don't post political stuff
At least you had bots, I had an actual mod of a huge sub report me to admins because I asked why I was banned for quoting someone's comment and then reporting them for hate, 12 years of good standing and a stint as a mod also just flushed because the site is managed by unpaid child labor.
sorry to hear that. reddit is a lost cause at this point.
I've only ever seen this message sent to harass people
I figured that was the intended purpose.
I have only ever seen the "Harm prevention" report used exclusively for the purpose of harassment on Reddit. I'm talking like 99.99999% of the time. Everything about that: from the corporate flavored, performative bullshit to the superficially empathetic, and conspicuously caring, two-faced nature of the whole thing really pisses me off. I would prefer if they were just honest about not giving a fuck, frankly.
Those shit comics is on here now too?
"now" is odd phrasing from an 8 day old account.
I think I've seen this artist's work posted here for over a year.
Some of us tried really hard not to let these drama-drenched nothing comics take over here, but it seems enough of the community thinks "relatable" is substitution for humor or substance, so here are. I've blocked some of the accounts that post PCC and similar garbage, but unfortunately you have a few users like King here who I don't want to block because they do actually participate in the greater Lemmy community but unfortunately also mass-post a bunch of garbage like this low-effort because I'm sure some people think bad content is better than no content. 🤷

I've actually had to block her account on Reddit, because it's usually low effort humor or just plain drama, but always highly upvoted - so always comes on top of your feed, in place of other comics. But you don't have that option here since it's not the official account posting...
I wish there was a comic creator label in such post titles, so we could easily filter them.
This is ironic considering the source. Didn’t she go crying to Reddit admins to stop people from sharing anything negative about her? I recall people being banned for simply saying they through her comics were low-hanging-fruit and generic.
yes. also a while ago I believe someone on Reddit came up with "proof" that she was also paying a PR type of company to upvote and post positive comments on her posts. Take it with a grain of salt but their proof was essentially people that would comment on her posts ONLY used reddit to comment on her comic posts.
Not a fan or her work or her onlyfans "work" but meh she does play the system well I'll give her that.
It's fun that it's been weaponized to report people who you don't like.
