Edit section on Australian social media ban challenge
[edit]First, the heading should be set in sentence case (Australia's social media ban) in accordance with MOS:SECTIONCAPS. Second, the relevant law does not 'prevent people under 16 from accessing the site in Australia', rather it makes it unlawful for certain platforms to make an account without taking steps to ensure the person is not under 16 (source). A lot of Reddit is accessible without an account, so the current description is not accurate. The current text infers a reason for Reddit's lawsuit (lost business due to Australia's market size) but does not consider the reasons outlined in the court action itself. Mainly Reddit appears to be arguing that the law disproportionately infringes upon the implied right to political communication in the Australian constitution, and Reddit even says in the filing that 'this is also not an effort to retain young users for business reasons'.

VERY Old Source
[edit]"Reddit has been noted for its role in political activism, particularly in the United States, with notable left-wing and anti-theist subcultures on the website.[12]"
This source is 11 years old and predates r/Trump's influence and the current state of politics on the site. ~2026-29917-90 (talk) 01:03, 19 May 2026 (UTC)[]
r/jailbait
[edit]Only one result for 'jailbait' in the whole article and it doesn't even make it clear that this was a subreddit. Is it not noteworthy that r/jailbait was voted "subreddit of the year", had up to nearly 2 MILLION views per day, and was at one point the second most common search term on reddit???? Incredible to omit this from the article, except this site has a clear track record of concealing left wing people and orgs' pedophilia. Just look at Larry Kramer's page....Gayle Rubin....Susan Schulman. You can't even link nambla's website on here because it has so much information on people like this who wikipedia is trojan horsing into normality. ~2026-21467-94 (talk) 07:07, 13 April 2026 (UTC)[]
BBS
[edit]The article compares Reddit to bulletin board systems, but the two sources cited for that sentence don't mention BBSes. ~2026-23746-94 (talk) 16:11, 17 April 2026 (UTC)[]
