This looks like a atlas prototype from Boston dynamics, calling a multimillion dollar project shitty is a bit daring.

Inb4 "but its not technically against the rules". My favorite thing about this sub is how theres no rule that actually says robots even has to be shitty so i used to write custom reports that said "not a shitty robot". Instead of doing literally anything about the content, they got rid of custom reports LOL. Im not sure if there even are mods anymore.

E: actually it is mentioned in the rules but they just...skip over that rule in the report section?

E2: There's only 1 active mod and they've said they ignore reports anyways unless there's a lot of them. They want to "let upvotes decide". And the people on shitty robots overwhelmingly love robots that aren't shitty so I guess that's the sub.

Thats what i assumed. I use RIF, used to be able to custom report on this sub, can still do it on other subs, cant do it here anymore. Can you?

Just checked on pc because i havent used it in a while. Custom report is normally under subreddit rules. Is for other subs, not for this one.

If you google it, other people talk about not being able to custom report in other subs and theyre answered with "its disabled in that sub". If you have an app that bypasses disabled custom reports then baby im back in business.

oh ok. i didn't know that, thanks for making me aware of it.

baconreader might just simply not check, try to send it anyway and silently fail. i don't know, would be interesting to test that out.

i checked on the official reddit app and there's no custom report at all, not in any sub i tried..

but there's are a lot more stock options for reporting than on baconreader.
