yeah totally a reddit thing. never happens here
When the Reddit is Fun app shut down due to the API thing, I spent days deleting hundreds of comments/posts that I had made.
Redreader still works and is open source.
May Reddit die
Which matters the most?
“Which doesn’t matter.”
– English professor.
But, in my opinion, they both matter. What’s your point?
I mean, the word ‘which’ doesn’t matter, according to the English professor.
Sure, if you’re taking the joke seriously about money, looks and [removed], I agree they all matter to some extent.
Oh, right. Thank you for taking the time to reply with patience and clarity.

Explanation? I’m not getting it
Rich people will say, money doesn’t matter. But they haven’t experienced actually not having it. It’s ironic.
Attractive people say, looks don’t matter, but they’ve always had good looks. It’s ironic.
The joke plays on the way deleted comments on Reddit show up as removed by deleted user, sounding similar to the earlier ironies: Deleted says deleted. Since that last is effectively meaningless, and entirely different underneath from the reaction-to-judgement underlying the first two, it’s also humour from the non-sequitur.
So it turns a frustration with rich and attractive people telling us not to worry about money and looks, into a surreal joke comparing the pattern to deleted Reddit comments.
I took it to mean that if you weren’t rich or beautiful, you would be censored. The censorship being a way to show that you weren’t important.
Of course, that wouldn’t actually be the case in real life, though it may feel that way. If we were looking through the lens from a big data company, it would be true that we’re just one data point in a sea of data points, but they rely on the sea and the sea is made of me’s.
We’re both in the same boat here, and these other ppl being unhelpful makes me sad
On reddit, when A user account is deleted, their posts will just say “removed” and the account “deleted”, hence the association of the two.
But how is it a continuation on the other three? Is it just cause it matches the quote formats?
Honestly, if you don’t get it just move on. It’s not that important.
No one here will even remember it tomorrow. It’s ok.
One of my special interests is humor (probably because of my difficulties with it) and I like to know why things work. If you can’t put it into words, that’s fine. It’s a fairly common response, to the point where “it isn’t funny if you have to explain it” is a common saying.
Don’t tell people it’s not important if they ask. That just makes people feel excluded because it’s clearly important to them.
I’m not going to explain i joke i don’t even remember, dude. Sorry.
… then don’t respond? That’s a perfectly acceptable option. … the fuck?
No. I respond when someone talks to me. The fuck gee willikers
[removed]
I’m autistic, repeating the joke won’t help me understand. Though I guess it’s funny, so continue on (Though I don’t know why)
AuDHD here. I could be entirely off, but there’s two jokes I can see.
The first is that the punchline is a non-joke, because it’s been removed.
The second is that they’re all just as meaningless, but still repeated. Rich and attractive people always try to convince you not to question those structures because it benefits them. It’s a nothing statement. Of course they would say that. Just like [Deleted], always saying [Removed].
I like this explanation
Look at the continuation of posts in the meme.
deleted
Grammar don’t matter
apparently*
🧐
doesn’t*
word not
Meat doesn’t matter
- vegans
I think that’s the opposite.
I think it would be
“Meat doesn’t matter”
- wagyu
Reddit for me is now:
You’ve been blocked by network security. To continue, log in to your Reddit account
lol no
You’ll want something like lib redirect or a reddit viewer from fdroid, I recommend radreader.
That’s 100% a VPN being used. Some countries get around it. You need to shop around.
Or a public wifi being used. For some reason, Reddit blocks that as well.
It is, you’re right and I forgot to mention it. But I consider it a good thing for my sanity.
Or use a different frontend like eddrit
Redlib, it’s so much nicer than all the shit clutter on reddit anyways.
What did you do? Use a VPN or Tor?
