Reddit now warns you about rule violations before posting
What's the story
Reddit has unveiled a set of new tools to enhance the user experience on its platform.
These features are aimed at helping users discover communities, make sure their posts are in line with platform rules, and learn how to engage on the social network.
The "Post Check" tool is aimed at helping users ensure their posts are in line with subreddit rules.
With this, users can identify potential rule violations before publishing their content.
Reposting feature
New tool for reposting removed content
Along with this, Reddit is also introducing a tool to repost content that was previously removed from a subreddit due to community rules.
When a post is deleted, users will see an option under the post prompting them to repost it in an alternative subreddit suggested by Reddit.
This feature aims at providing users with more opportunities for sharing their content on the platform.
Contribution guidance
Reddit to guide users on community contribution
Reddit will also guide users on how they can contribute to a community if they don't meet its criteria.
For instance, if a user is unable to post in a community due to insufficient karma score, Reddit will inform them about this and suggest ways to improve their karma.
This feature aims at encouraging active participation across different communities within the platform.
Community connection
"Community Suggestions" feature to connect users
Reddit's new "Community Suggestions" feature will help users find the right community for their posts.
If you're not sure where to post your content, you can use the "Pick a Community" dropdown menu.
This tool will recommend relevant subreddits based on the content of the post, thus helping you connect with your intended audience more efficiently.
Performance tracking
Enhanced "Post Insights" feature launched
Reddit has also improved its "Post Insights" feature, letting users track the performance of their posts more effectively.
Now, users can access data related to views, upvotes, shares and more.
The enhancement aims at helping Redditors understand what kind of content performs well on the platform, so that they can refine their approach for future posts accordingly.
