If Reddit requires ID verification, how bad will things get.

Fine, let them do it, i hate reddit anyway.

One of the things that i really hate is that it basically makes it impossible for 2 people to carry on a long conventioneer, because it compresses their posts more and more as they post more replies, until it becomes completely unreadable.

Back in the day when there were forums all over the place, you could find glorious conversations that go on for pages and pages. Now that reddit is more or less the only "forum" out there, you can't have that on there.

It's a piece of shit. I hope they do ID verification so that the site can die and be replaced by another, or a few others.
 
No exaggeration I suspect a lot of work arounds but for normies easily a 70-80% drop. Lots of bots anyway but the whole reason Reddit is as good as it is is bc it lets people talk openly about most things without it being tied to anything besides their ideas/thoughts for better or worse.

it’s basically twitter or fb if you remove that.

Yeah, talk openly is a bit of an exaggeration. I get banned regularly xD
 
Even a legitimate user won't want to put their ID on some Social media site where people talk about crazy things
so that's not happening.
 
If Reddit makes ID verification mandatory, the situation would be something like this:
Privacy would be reduced, It would be difficult to remain anonymous, especially for those discussing sensitive topics.

If reddit enforce the ID would you short its stock lol
 
The way I see it that, ID verification would reduce spam but won’t kill Reddit.

Some users may leave, but quality and trust could improve.

Overall, it makes things stricter and more competitive.
 
If Reddit required identity verification, I think millions of people would leave the app and switch to another platform, simply because they wouldn't want to do it, or they wouldn't have the equipment to take photos of the required quality.
 
I got a email from reddit about age verification for EU members and I don't live in the EU lol
Go ahead, short them. :D I am short of a couple of million dollars, otherwise, I would have done it myself. :P

Just spam the site then for every dollar just like I'm trying to do lol
 
ID verification won't be required for everyone, it'll be required only for users who are suspected to be underage and to fight bots and automation

You sound too optistimc.

Why would they invest in trying to sepárate young from old? Why take the legal risk? 1000 accounts slip through and a government might sue them for $100 billion.

It's over
 
I already submitted my ID because I needed it to watch hentai.

I'm cooked.

I'm hoping my hentai futa breeding with mindbreak history isn't going to be used against me in the future.
 
Why measures like this have become so accepted? Everybody accepts them very easily.

See the jokes in the replies here?

THat's the mentality that's been spread with the web

Circus entertainers are everywhere now.

True, bold thinkers dont even wish to communicate publicly because nothing is serious anymore without a clown popping up.

But in time, people will regret their foolishness. The "Circus" they are participating in doesn't have generous owners.
 
My guess is it mainly kills off bulk low effort acounts and bot farms, real users in most countries will just verify and move on. Bigger risk is if it rolls out unevenly and just pushes communities to alternative platforms instead.

All very very true but the part about the circus owners ........... that's the truest unfortunately.
