Reminds me of Red orchestra.

Only a slight stretch from reaction videos being your content.

protip: change that link to https://www.reddit.com/user/me/about/edit/privacy and it'll work for everyone without them having to change your-username to their username

[-] heartless_drol | 22 points | Mar 12 2018 20:38:24

i will update the link in post, thanks

page not found

[-] timawesomeness | 6 points | Mar 13 2018 01:05:39

It doesn't work if you have "View user profiles on desktop using legacy mode" turned on in your preferences, or if you didn't have the beta profile, in which case this post wouldn't be applicable to you.

[-] morzinbo | 5 points | Mar 13 2018 01:06:08

ah ok

[-] em4gon | 28 points | Mar 12 2018 22:52:33

This should be stickied

[-] BloodHawkDarkWolf | 9 points | Mar 12 2018 23:52:53

Probably, but subreddits have a hard limit of 2 stickies. This is decided by reddit and there's no way around it. So it's a pretty scant resource, and those slots are pretty much already taken.

[-] em4gon | 16 points | Mar 13 2018 00:11:52

Oh didn't know that, at least adding it to the sidebar, or doing something with Automoredator in every post ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[-] BloodHawkDarkWolf | 11 points | Mar 13 2018 02:13:46

I think it would be a good addition to the sidebar for sure. There's two kinds of exposure for the subreddit. Organic growth is good for the subreddit, more people who find it and use it the way it's intended. Having it rammed up into r/ all is bad, it's just not good to have the sub thrown up in front of thousands of people who might decide to go on some kind of crusade or make a stink.

I'm really glad somebody brought this up as I had never really thought about it much. Still thinking the sub is smaller than it actually is, but I guess this is actually a problem we have to consider now.

[-] aakash658 | 23 points | Mar 13 2018 03:29:10

This post will reach r/all

[-] nist87 | 8 points | Mar 12 2018 23:17:47

the link doesnt work for me, and there is no "settings drop down" on my profile page...

[-] deadnought | 3 points | Mar 13 2018 05:52:38

Doesn't this not work? It says "posts to this profile." Posting to your profile is a feature reddit added recently where you literally post to your profile page, that shouldn't include posts to this sub (which is not your profile). A post to your profile would have a link like:
https://www.reddit.com/u/username/comments/xxxxxx/name_of_post
as opposed to a link to this subreddit which would look like:
https://www.reddit.com/r/megalinks/comments/83xhze/meta_stopping_your_content_to_show_on_rall/

For people who might be confused/link not working,you probably have "View user profiles on desktop using legacy mode" checked in preferences under "beta options".

[-] heartless_drol | 3 points | Mar 13 2018 06:14:51

actually, even though the settings on this subreddit disallow posts to goto r/all and they still were going.

but also the posts posted by me on this sub, show under posts when you goto my profile, so i thought this would work, and it does not. i am still waiting for reply from one of the mods to confirm the settings of the subreddit, before deleting the post :(
