A Helpful PSA on DM Settings
It has come to my attention recently that several people who have been on here for awhile have been overwhelmed by the terrible DMs they get unsolicited. I know, it's the internet, and that's gonna happen, but it sucks.
But what made me want to post this is the fact that many of those people didn't know that they can change their DM settings on Reddit. So:
- Go to Settings, Privacy, and you'll see an entry "Who can send you chat requests" - switch "Everyone" to either "Accounts older than 30 days" or "Nobody"
This won't solve the problem. There are still plenty of assholes with accounts older than 30 days. But it might cut back on some of it.
Anyway, I know many of you know this already, but in case someone out there is feeling overwhelmed by that and doesn't want to leave outright, that might help.
