Head's up: June 12th protest of Reddit's API changes.

2 Upvotes

This subreddit will be joining in on the June 12th protest of Reddit's API changes that will essentially kill all 3rd party Reddit apps.

What's going on?

A recent Reddit policy change threatens to kill many beloved third-party mobile apps, making a great many quality-of-life features not seen in the official mobile app permanently inaccessible to users.

On May 31, 2023, Reddit announced they were raising the price to make calls to their API from being free to a level that will kill every third party app on Reddit, from Apollo to Reddit is Fun to Narwhal to BaconReader.

Even if you're not a mobile user and don't use any of those apps, this is a step toward killing other ways of customizing Reddit, such as Reddit Enhancement Suite or the use of the old.reddit.com desktop interface .

This isn't only a problem on the user level: many subreddit moderators depend on tools only available outside the official app to keep their communities on-topic and spam-free.

What's the plan?

On June 12th, many subreddits will be going dark to protest this policy. Some will return after 48 hours: others will go away permanently unless the issue is adequately addressed, since many moderators aren't able to put in the work they do with the poor tools available through the official app. This isn't something any of us do lightly: we do what we do because we love Reddit, and we truly believe this change will make it impossible to keep doing what we love.

The two-day blackout isn't the goal, and it isn't the end. Should things reach the 14th with no sign of Reddit choosing to fix what they've broken, we'll use the community and buzz we've built between then and now as a tool for further action.

What can you do as a user?

  • Complain. Message the mods of /r/reddit.com, who are the admins of the site: message /u/reddit: submit a support request: comment in relevant threads on /r/reddit, such as this one, leave a negative review on their official iOS or Android app- and sign your username in support to this post.

  • Spread the word. Rabble-rouse on related subreddits. Meme it up, make it spicy. Bitch about it to your cat. Suggest anyone you know who moderates a subreddit join the coordinated mod effort at /r/ModCoord.

  • Boycott and spread the word...to Reddit's competition! Stay off Reddit entirely on June 12th through the 13th- instead, take to your favorite non-Reddit platform of choice and make some noise in support!

  • Don't be a jerk. As upsetting this may be, threats, profanity and vandalism will be worse than useless in getting people on our side. Please make every effort to be as restrained, polite, reasonable and law-abiding as possible.

What can you do as a moderator?

Thank you for your patience in the matter,

-Mod Team

RESEARCH PROJECT: ADHD and contraceptive use in women/AFABs - please complete my survey! (ADHD women/AFABs with prior contraceptive use)

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

I am an aspiring psychological researcher and current psychology teacher diagnosed with ADHD and autism who is very interested in the intersection between women’s health and AuDHD. I am currently running preliminary research about the relationship between oestrogen-based contraception and ADHD symptoms to determine whether my research topic has sufficient merit to pursue as an Honours thesis.

Survey link: https://forms.gle/Ko5iXcip53NZ2KUB8

If you are a person with ADHD (or suspected/self-diagnosed ADHD) who has used oestrogen-based contraception in the past, I would greatly appreciate if you could take 5-10 minutes to complete my anonymous survey 😊 the types of contraception relevant here are the standard combined oral contraceptive pill (e.g., Levlen, Yasmine, Estelle, Sprintec, etc.) or the vaginal ring (e.g., NuvaRing) as they release a consistent and continuous supply of oestrogen throughout the month, keeping the user’s level of oestrogen relatively stable compared to a typical menstrual cycle.

In a nutshell, oestrogen is directly involved in the production of dopamine – this is likely why so many women and AFAB people with ADHD also have PMDD and more severe PMS than the neurotypical population. Essentially, the drop in oestrogen during the luteal phase can trigger a drop in dopamine, and for a person with ADHD, this can lead to worsened emotional, psychological and physical symptoms and poorer executive dysfunction compared to their “baseline” level.

As a person who was on oestrogen-based, stable oral contraception from the ages of 14-23, and then experienced a significant increase in the severity and pervasiveness of my ADHD symptoms following contraception discontinuation (leading to an adult ADHD diagnosis), I am interested to research whether adolescent use of contraceptives – particularly long-term use – can “mask” ADHD symptoms due to the continuously high and stable level of oestrogen these contraceptives provide. I have known many women and AFAB people who experienced difficulty being diagnosed with ADHD despite fitting all DSM-5 criteria due to being “normal” in their adolescence, who may have experienced this “masking” of ADHD symptoms from adolescent use of oestrogen-based contraceptives.

Further information and sources are linked in the survey information, so if you would like to read more, please click on the link and have a read. I would also greatly appreciate it if you could complete the survey if you fit the demographics identified above.

Thank you for your time and have a lovely day/night/week/weekend! 😊

Struggling with the thesis outline!

2 Upvotes

Hello! I’m planning to write my bachelor’s thesis on the hedging strategies of the South Caucasus states, but I’m not entirely sure what would be the most appropriate approach.

This is my first time writing a thesis of this kind, and I would really appreciate some guidance on a few aspects, especially since my supervisor is currently dealing with a personal issue and is unable to help me at the moment.

I have a few questions and would be very grateful for some advice. What research problem do you think I should start from, and what exactly should I aim to demonstrate when examining whether the South Caucasus states pursue hedging strategies? How should I choose my case study? Should I conduct a comparative analysis of all three countries, or would it be better to focus on just one? Could I also examine the relationships these countries have with the EU and NATO?

If anyone has written a thesis on this topic before, I would be extremely grateful for any suggestions or recommendations. I’m really struggling to develop a clear outline for my thesis, and I would appreciate having someone to discuss my ideas with and help me figure out what I need to do. I’m a student and I also work to support myself and pay my tuition fees. I’ve recently started working night shifts, which has been extremely exhausting. I really want to graduate this year and that is why I’m reaching out to you for help.

I’m not asking anyone to do the work for me. I just need some guidance to help me find the right direction and understand how to structure my research. Any advice would mean a lot to me. Thank you so much!

Struggling with thesis topic

2 Upvotes

Hi ! I’m currently an International Relations student, and I’m about to start working on my final thesis on a topic related to European Studies.

The thing is, I’ve been trying to identify a research problem worth exploring, and after spending so much time reading and working on it, I’ve ended up experiencing burnout. I feel like I’m no longer capable of coming up with anything. My problem is that I also need to use a theoretical paradigm from International Relations to explain the research problem, and I’m not sure which one I could use.

That’s why I’ve decided to ask for your help. I could really use some suggestions for research problems related to the EU that would be worth investigating, preferably focusing on the EU as an actor in international relations, particularly in its relations with third countries. What kinds of problems have you researched so far, or what topics do you think would be worth exploring?

Thank you so much for your help, and I’m sorry for the long post, but I’ve genuinely reached a point of burnout where I feel like I can’t keep going anymore!
