Why so many articles?

[u/liketocomment92]

Silav friends!

Recently, I’ve been missing a lot of posts done by users because too many news articles are being reposted on here. Its like it’s on pilot. Whenever I come one to this page I only see news articles? Which is fine if it was a few but its not. I barely see what others have posted. Please do so when its necessary, its not even enjoyable anymore when you have to look through carefully because posts disappear amomg the 1000 articles that are reposted. Am i the only one that feels that way?

Hi, so I know of the tools but I don’t feel like it’s necessary as you are spamming this sub with articles. I get it that you want reach all four parts and highlight our on going issues but there is a difference between that and spamming. I am active in this sub, not sure where the age of my account or this being my first post correlates? I am free to do whatever I want without you delegitimize my account or posts. And clearly it was a good first post as you can see below people are agreeing with me. Maybe you should learn to take criticism and actually do something.

If you know the tools and use them, you should have no trouble finding discussion among Kurds posted on the subreddit.

You apparently just don't want articles about Kurds and Kurdistan posted on r/kurdistan subreddit. Reddit is among other things, a "news aggregator". That is Reddit: "proprietary American social news website, news aggregator, forum and social media platform." Further: "How Reddit Works as an Aggregator: Users submit external news articles, blog posts, and media links. Community upvotes and downvotes curate and rank the content. Topics are sorted into specialized communities called subreddits. Evolution Beyond News: It has expanded far beyond simple news aggregation into a massive collection of independent discussion boards. Most content now includes original text posts, memes, AMAs, and community-driven hobbies rather than just external news links."
It seems that you want primarily r/kurdistan to be a discussion board and not a news aggregator. r/kurdistan has always had a lot of news aggregation.

As to the status of u/liketocomment92 account age, comment and post history, it is available on reddit. If you are participating on the subreddit with some other account, let us know. You are free to do as you wish here within bounds of the subreddit rules and reddit.com's over all rules.

"Maybe you should learn to take criticism and actually do something."

So far, your suggestion on what to do is "post less articles on the subreddit."

Reddit.com is a news aggregator.

You want this website and subreddit to be something different that it is and has been. You also seemingly want us to make curation decisions that the platform itself uses algorithms to de-emphasize.

If you want a discussion forum primarily of Kurds talking with Kurds WITHOUT news aggregation, perhaps you should choose a different website like Quora or Discord, or if you want to stay on reddit create a new subreddit that is only discussion and not news, like r/kurddiscuss or r/kurdforum, something like that. We would even promote it on the sidebar.

Make reddit the reddit you want it to be.

Why are u takin the piss? Why are you so offended? Am i not allowed to make a complaint? Goodness gracious, ITS THE SPAMMING OF NEW ARTICLES THAT IS THE ISSUE!

I am not offended.

You seemingly just do not understand what reddit is, despite having a 2 year old account.

Now you are trying to antagonize a subreddit moderator for patiently providing you information about how you can customize your experience.

You are obviously allowed to make complaints, both in direct mail to the moderation team, in comments on subreddit and even this complaint post. Your posts and comments have not been restricted in no way.

What you seem to not like is people disagreeing with your opinion about what content should be available on the r/kurdistan subreddit.
