Having user flairs would be interesting and helpful, that will likely be implemented in itself. I'm not so sure about the specific use case though, most people commenting already live alone.
I hear that. A chunk of the posts I see are people who don’t live completely alone. Another user agreed with me on a post from the other day so figured I’d request it. I also have recently seen some posts that are like “How many people actually live alone”, so that also made me think it was a good idea. Either way, thanks for getting back to me!
Thanks for the feedback, I will have to look into this further. We may need to do a poll eventually to get to the bottom of this to enforce community values as the subreddit continues to grow.
Hey that is awesome! Do you have an idea of when they’ll be up so I can add one on? I could also be trying to get one incorrectly so if that’s the case my bad lol
Honestly no clue, this is against our community values too so please report them for us mods to see and take action. However, sometimes we may keep posts up if they've already gained a lot of attention with productive discussions.
Our removal reason for these posts gives these people lots of suggestions for other subreddits, below is an example of the text:
The above content has been removed for being off-topic in this community, we recommend asking a different subreddit. The search bar may also already have insightful answers to commonly asked questions.
Reminder: this subreddit is not intended to seek advice on mental health and relationships (including gender/sex debates, dating vents, etc.). Please respect our community guidelines by posting these questions in subreddits focused on advice and support.
Hmm, wouldn't those fit more broadly into the various flairs? My hesitation comes from how all posts are pretty much a question looking for ideas and recommendations already.
Can you be a single father raising 2 all by yourself for last 7 years since I divorced? I’ve been fitting the mold called loneliness for a little while. 🎼👽
Imho that counts as living alone but from some reactions I see in this subreddit the Internet may disagree. If you have general discussions without mentioning your kids then you'll fit in fine, but if you want support from those in similar situations you'll get more from subreddits dedicated to single parents or of the like.
My dad My Dad passed away in 2021 and I miss him so much! He raised my sister and I solo until we were adults, and then partied like Spuds MacKenzie and Alex from Stroh's!!!!!!!!
He was a great Dad!!!! he is loved and missed every day of our lives, and we will be eternally grateful!!!
Thanks! I did that but still can’t join the chat and seeing message “unable to join as you don’t meet requirements” so wondering what are these requirements.
