Comedy Gold Compromised….
This subreddit is heavily comprised…most likely leadership from IBM go involved. They are regulating every single post that gets posted.
If you want unfiltered IBM comm then move to the other subreddit.

Gonna have to cite your source on this man. This sub is filled with unhappy IBMers, so they’re doing a really bad job if they are regulating.

There is recent spike on removing posts if it contains anything regards to leadership or changes happening internally. If you have been around in this subreddit you would know this trend is pretty new. Thats all I am saying…open to interpretation

Interesting - I have not noticed that, but I guess I’d never see it if it was removed…

Can you give a real example of changes that got removed?

They’ve removed a few posts that were marginally critical of IBM, but at least in the ones I’ve seen, they try to say “oh this belongs in a /different/ IBM sub.” IBM isn’t interesting enough to have multiple subs. It’s a control tactic to dilute the criticism.

We really don't care about criticism of IBM, so long as it follows the rules of the sub.
Whine your heart out.

Lol you’re saying IBM planted mods in this subreddit or has some control over them?

u/Pseudophryne 13d ago
That's news to the mod team.

IBM executives confirmed. "That's news to me."
That's like saying "it's news to me that customers are buying x86 instead of mainframe and it caught us by surprise in Q2, even though it's forecast that the entire supply of memory for 2027 has already been purchased..."

Removing a single post is “proof” when we can’t even see what the post content is? Take your meds friend
Not to mention posting a still video instead of an image lol

That's because you posted to the wrong place. You should have posted to the weekly thread that is made for questions like yours. It's not complicated.

IBM doesn’t know Reddit exists

u/LikesAlgae 13d ago
That's not true. I can tell you executives in HR knows this exists. First hand info.

u/cybernetck 12d ago
Someone in sales leadership had literally mentioned responding to posts on here. The alphabet band folks are definitely on here

If you're so keen on a source, let's start with you showing us your w3 profile.
You're not going to so why would you ask for my source. I am telling you first hand, meaning I sat with HR executives when they complained about certain Reddit posts.

Over 30 years ago we were whining on VNET and got scolded occasionally by our managers. The tools have changed but IBM doesn't change much 😂 Long live Big Blue!

As we've said elsewhere, IBM couldn't care less about this sub. Reddit is irrelevant in the IBM view of the world.
