  • Reddit quietly changed the /r/redditrequest process a while ago. It used to be if you had no activity on your account for a year, then they would consider handing it over. In this case, if the admins don’t take it outright, then any user can make an /r/redditrequest for the sub. Admins will send a modmail to the sub, but not a message to your account. If you don’t reply within seven days they will hand over your account and you’ll only find out if you have your email set to send notifications when you get the “you’ve been removed as moderator”. I lost modship of a sub I had setup years ago because I didn’t receive any other notification.







  • I have run my own PiHole previously. Then I wanted Ad blocking on my phone, so I also setup OpenVPN that ran alongside my PiHole so I could get ad blocking anywhere. I travel often, and then we moved, so I never got it set up again, at the same time I discovered AdGuard could be configured on both home networks for network-level blocking, but they also have device profiles for iOS.

    I haven’t had to fuss with PiHole now in years.

    If you are happy to do the administration of a PiHole, and the scope it provides, it’s good. I didn’t want to have to fuss with it anymore.
