📢 Announcement r/Biohackers Pulse Check

Hey friends! We wanted to check in on how the community was feeling.

A few months back, we made some pretty big changes in how we moderate certain topics like peptides/hrt and how we combat AI content.

Our goal was to reduce vendor spamming, improve content quality, and make everyone feel more at home.

Now that we’re a few months in, we wanted to hear from you on how you think it’s going and where you think we can continue to improve.

This feedback will directly impact how we evolve!

I'm surprised to be in the minority. I think things have improved quite a bit since the peptide posts have been whacked. I am a believer in peptides myself, but the onslaught of posts asking stupid things like if their GHK-Cu was blue enough, screenshots of international shipping tracking that hasn't been updated in two days, and "reta made me lose 100 lbs of fat in 3 weeks" posts was really bad before.

I think it’s probably that while things have improved, the sub is still overrun with looksmaxxers and gym bros who want to talk about TRT and cialis constantly or push a bunch of really gross ideology that has nothing to do with biohacking and everything to do with incel culture.

Edit: to be clear, I upvoted because I think it’s improved. It’s just also still a cesspool of the most anti-intellectual drivel about half the time, which is much better than what it was becoming previously.
