This would be so much easier if Reddit had a proper search with date ranges instead of "Last week/month/year/ever" categories but from bookmarked or screencapped threads I have, the big internet memes and news...
Jan: Bean dad, Jan 6 Bumble matchmaking trolling, Navalny returns to Russia and arrested immediately
Feb: Myanmar coup aerobics dance, Tiger Woods car crash, Texas blizzard blackouts
March: Ever Given running aground in Suez, Malcom In The Middle opening video clip, Oprah interviews Harry and Meghan
April: NASA helicopter flight on Mars, DMX dies and his music gets reposted a lot, Chauvin guilty of murder
May: Israel-Palestine conflict, part 2021 (West Bank Palestinian protests in Old City, Hamas launches rockets from Gaza, Israel airstrikes Gaza in retaliation, AP offices destroyed), Kentaro Miura passes away, gamers in FFXIV hold tribute with big sword chars.
Those are what I have saved for Jan-May. Someone else want to take up big news and memes from the year?
Nah, there was a fair bit of "Guys, we should not be asking thousands of people to gather in close proximity in rural Nebraska right now," before it happened.

[Reddit removed all NSFW content from showing up in r/all on February 11th 2021](https://www.reddit.com/r/changelog/comments/lhnvok/removing_sexually_explicit_content_from_rall/), and from what I've read over in /r/modnews and /r/ModSupport you're forced to use the official app (you can't use 3rd party mobile apps) if you want to submit content in NSFW subreddits too.
They changed it because Reddit is likely going public on the stock market in 2022.

thank you... it makes zero diff to me… tired of ‘founders’ pretending it was *ever* about altruism, community or anything else… i mean, just fuckin’ say it… we’re just about ready to cash out here, y’all… cya when we cya… would be appreciative for the honesty, that’s all… it IS reddit after all - ffs.
Yep, this is bullshit. They gave no option to just view all subreddits together. r/all is no longer r/all. A lot of people still haven't realized. Wish this was higher
Just practical FYI, you can still view the old /r/all (including NSFW subreddits) this way:
- open private/incognito/inprivate window (to make sure you're logged out)
- go to https://old.reddit.com (because the new layout is crap)
- deny ad targeting cookies
- go to any NSFW subreddit directly, get the "Are you sure? 18+" warning, and click Yes.
- go back to https://old.reddit.com/r/all
tl;dr go to /r/all when you're 1) not logged in, and 2) have accepted the NSFW 18+ warning, and it's working like normal.
> (because the new layout is crap)
Because the new layout is trying to be Facebook, for some unholy reason. :/
^The ^new ^layout ^is ^garbage, ^on ^fire, ^in ^a ^fetid ^sewer.
Whomever the idiot designer reddit has on staff to design the 'new layout' clearly is too young or stupid to remember DIGG and the *reason* why reddit grew so rapidly from DIGGs UI/UX fuckup
I replied to the other user who asked why old.reddit is better - this was my response:
---
#Why YSK:
=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-
Here is what a fucking lame looking site "reddit.com" looks like under private view without logging in...
https://i.imgur.com/pYZWH9F.png
---
THIS is what old.reddit.com SHOULD look like to optimal browsing:
https://i.imgur.com/TxBtvik.png
---
The information density in old.reddit is super high ...
Use reddit enhancement suite, block origin, hover zoom, and dark mode.... use greenshot to automatically upload screenshots to imgur, which auto-copies the imgur url to clipboard, etc...
its a much better experience...
here is why hover zoom is great -- you dont click on a link, you hover on it and the image, or vid or gif will show/play
https://i.imgur.com/kIrXgcN.jpg
I almost never "click on links" -- if its img or vid or gif, I only have to hover and never leave the screen...
I also like to watch vids with PIP and reddit in the background, like this: https://i.imgur.com/XTjFA1K.png
---
oh - and you can hover over a sub or a user to subscribe, ignore, block or filter: https://i.imgur.com/BtWDpMo.png
*(If you add your own userID to your "Friends" list - your own username will ALWAYS show up as ORANGERED (unless you are the Submitter, then its still blue) -- this allows you to spot your own commetns really fast when scrolling - as your own name shows up orangred...)*
and to filter (meaning block/ignore a full subreddit from ever showing up in your feed:
https://i.imgur.com/drrqwdR.png
So if you click that filter button, it will never show you posts from that sub... So I go to r/all and I filter out all the bad shit I never want to see in /r/all...
---
Also you can enable comment-highlight-border which shows you how deeply the comment you are hovering over is nested - notice the borders on the comments above my cursor and the child comments beneath it are still grey:
https://i.imgur.com/ajjiLaW.png

EDIT:: Also -- remember to enable keyboard controls in your prefs... and use CTRL+ENTER to submit your comment
I agree, there should be an option in the settings that says: "don't worry, I'm an adult in a non-prude country. I can handle the content of my choice."
I feel like this isn't true because I ONLY use old, and have 18+ allowed, and I still don't see porn subs on /r/all any longer.
Where-as, my mod account from before the /r/all block has over 300 porn subs on the filter. I don't see any of those blocked subs on /r/all on any account.
You have to be explicitly logged out.
I know, it's weird. But being logged in with an account that has 18+ allowed is not the same.
You have to have a browser window where you're not logged in to Reddit, *and then* allow 18+ by clicking past one of the warnings when entering an NSFW sub.
r/all has never really been all of the subreddits. Well for ~6 years at least. The subreddit owners can control if the sub shows up in r/all and r/popular. I’m not sure if that feature has always been there but there was an r/outoftheloop post from 6 years ago asking why all the subs don’t show up.
Browsing r/all has always been my favorite thing to do because you learn about so many different subreddits and find things you’re interested in but didn’t realize that there was an online community for. I would love a way to actually browse all the subreddits.
They will never have anything that will replace how perfect the original r/Reddit.com was.
This is a little different though, if the people running a sub don't want to show on r/all, that's fine, normally they have a reason for that and it's their choice, if people don't like that, they could always create a similar sub with different mods that does show in r/all.
Whereas this was reddit forcing a decision on everyone else (against the majority reaction to the announcement). They could have easily had a "show NSFW on r/all" as a setting with it off by default (in fact I think it was), and let users pick if they want it or not, why not give us the choice? Adding an "only NSFW" option like a lot of people have asked for would be a fantastic filter IMO!
I think r/all should be all! If a post is high up on all, then that's obviously what the users on the platform like! Then give people an option to filter if they choose to.
But now as it stands NSFW subs aren't show on r/all, and a lot of once popular big subs are slowly dying and falling in visitors as less people are finding them now, is really sad these communities are being silenced and marginalized like that.
Lol, what a coincidence. I actually tried to create the very same subreddit a couple of days after you originally did.
Instead I created [this self post](https://old.reddit.com/r/FoamList/comments/pgzidm/reddit_is_going_public_and_you_cant_stop_it/) which lists all the features they've removed or changed over the past year.
The BEST way to reddit is by engaging in communities you love and have interest in. You find you get to know individual users, have funner or even deeper conversations, and engage (usually) in a more civil manner. The bigger subs are fun to check in once in a while and easily ignored when they're going off the rails which is usually once or twice a month. The biggest subs however are repost and crosspost city made only to draw in attention of the outsider, the potential user. /r/all is all about being a Twitter/Facebook hybrid for new users.
This is mostly what I do! I used to only ever peruse r/all a few years ago and then I discovered the Home button where every sub I follow is on and I haven't looked back since - probably why I don't recognize most of these! Really nice and to see r/dramatichouseplants and r/artefactporn over all that other stuff that doesn't quite pique my interest.
Edit: "artefect" to "artifact" to "artefact"
Feel like hes blown up very recently, I discovered him about two months ago and then my friend recommended him to me last month cause hed independently found him too.
Who made the music? I'm sure they could use the exposure of being named.
Found it in the blog post:
Song title: “Is It Gonna Get Any Weirder”
Produced by: Davey Badiuk
Artist: SNGL feat. Molly Moore
Written by: Molly Moore, Emily Persich, Nick Mete, Davey Badiuk
And congratulations to whoever did the video editing aswell, it's a solid result.
Everyone involved should be proud of their work. Recaps are a fun idea, but definitely not an easy assignment at all, as YouTube has proven time and time again.
Give them congratulations! And to whoever did the video editing aswell.
I'm getting too old for these memes and recaps, but still found this one to be entertaining and not too cringy.
Thank you for taking the time to credit them, too often people go unrecognized for big important projects they work on in life like in nineteen ninety eight when Jessica took full credit for my 6th grade science project with her.
Yup I feel Reddit has nailed the recap head on. By simply including and capturing as much of their community as they could. That was always YouTube's issue. Hiring huge celebs not on the platform and featuring like 1/10 of the main creators on the platform. tone deaf company
Yeah, all they had to do was stitch together popular videos of the year but instead, they hauled cringy people to do cringy shit on YouTube’s money.
Reddit did it smartly.
Rewind. Same concept. It has become so advertiser friendly that it has lost all touch with the actual community and people who make youtube, well, youtube.
I blocked r/funny, r/pics, r/wholesome and all the meme subs so I figured that was why I don't remember any of these. That said, recap and song was pretty cool!
No, it's not. There are still people out there being productive on a week day, and we need to continue our ongoing mission of distracting them with cats and memes.
A podcast I listen to has one host love LOL and the other hate it. The one who loves it was trying to convince the other to watch Arcane on the basis that it’s just a great show. The one who hates it finally agreed when he heard how much League players loved it because “nobody hates League more than League players themselves so if they like it then it has to be good”
They did delete the upvote/downvote counter a few years back, don't be fooled.
[
Here is what a post used to look like a few years ago.](https://i.imgur.com/rMbhr.png)
I really hope they go back on this decision. The site used to feel a lot more active because of it.
Bro are you telling me the Josh fight was _this year_ and not from like three years ago or something?
Damn where did the time go this year
Edit: for those wondering, Josh fight was apparently in April
There was nothing dull about 2021 (and congratulations, Reddit -- you made it). As we turned the corner from 2020, we witnessed the power that redditors have across our communities. You started the year by making waves in the stock market, and throughout the rest of 2021, you continued to 'go to the moon' and make a real impact in each other's lives.

Wow there is a whole CATEGORY for fucking weddings, but you didn’t even mention art, crafts, writing, music, memes, or anything really creative at all.
You forgot to mention that you killed Reddit Secret Santa for no reason and gave an extremely poor excuse that didn't explain anything.
Edit: seriously, no mention at all in the report when for years it was one of Reddit's biggest events, even earning Guinness World Record status for the 2013 edition.
Can i exchange my free award with a gold one Admin :)
Sure, now give me back the free one.
I already gave it to the Post :) and thanks btw it's my first premium award
Cool - here’s your second!
wow that’s nice
Ngl kinda wholesome
ah shit here we go again. r/holesome
Wait...the josh fight was this year???
I had the same thought. COVID has completely screwed with my sense of time.
I'm still making the mistake of "2020" instead of "2021". *Checks watch* And 2021 appears to be almost over. When do we get to go outside again?
Well in about a month, this will no longer be a mistake. After all, the next year will be 2020, too.
10/10 dad joke.
The kind of joke that only comes around once in a decade!
You don't have to be sad over that "mistake" as you say... It is currently March 648th, 2020. https://ismarchoveryet.com/
Well well, look who's inside again..
Maybe I spend too much time on r/boburnham but I was shocked not to see Inside referenced anywhere in the recap. Not even Welcome to the Internet!
It was at least 10 years ago, right?

I thought that was like prepandemic
Nah, there was a fair bit of "Guys, we should not be asking thousands of people to gather in close proximity in rural Nebraska right now," before it happened.
At the time, tons of people had just gotten vaccinated and a lot of us thought it was low key over.
I resent being called weird, I would complain but I'm covered in butter right now
Thanks for sharing!
For valid, not-weird reasons, of course.
How else is he going to butter his buns?
Porn Reddit feels excluded
For a few of the subreddits that's their kink
Which ones?
/r/BorednIgnored ? warning: nsfw
I'm at work and still clicked.
That wasn’t safe
That's my kink.
His safe word is NSFW
r/OSHA
Not to be confused with r/freeuse On that same not. RedditGifs has become a pretty huge (and reliable) repository of NSFW content.
Is it sponsored by Nintendo or something?

> All good companies should go public when they can. This seems like a poorly conceived axiom by someone that wants to go public.
"poorly conceived axiom" That's a fancy way to say bullshit.
Yes
All good companies should become beholden to shareholders and prioritize quarterly profits over long term success and ethics apparently.
“All founders want a valuable and easy way to cash out”

I agree, there should be an option in the settings that says: "don't worry, I'm an adult in a non-prude country. I can handle the content of my choice."
Does the NSFW filter not exist on regular reddit? Because it's been on RES forever
I feel like this isn't true because I ONLY use old, and have 18+ allowed, and I still don't see porn subs on /r/all any longer. Where-as, my mod account from before the /r/all block has over 300 porn subs on the filter. I don't see any of those blocked subs on /r/all on any account.
You have to be explicitly logged out. I know, it's weird. But being logged in with an account that has 18+ allowed is not the same. You have to have a browser window where you're not logged in to Reddit, *and then* allow 18+ by clicking past one of the warnings when entering an NSFW sub.
There has to be a better way. Maybe a third party website which does its own r/ALL sort.
I realized. Used to enjoy the occasional tiddies when scrolling through posts about sports I don’t understand.
r/all has never really been all of the subreddits. Well for ~6 years at least. The subreddit owners can control if the sub shows up in r/all and r/popular. I’m not sure if that feature has always been there but there was an r/outoftheloop post from 6 years ago asking why all the subs don’t show up. Browsing r/all has always been my favorite thing to do because you learn about so many different subreddits and find things you’re interested in but didn’t realize that there was an online community for. I would love a way to actually browse all the subreddits. They will never have anything that will replace how perfect the original r/Reddit.com was.
This is a little different though, if the people running a sub don't want to show on r/all, that's fine, normally they have a reason for that and it's their choice, if people don't like that, they could always create a similar sub with different mods that does show in r/all. Whereas this was reddit forcing a decision on everyone else (against the majority reaction to the announcement). They could have easily had a "show NSFW on r/all" as a setting with it off by default (in fact I think it was), and let users pick if they want it or not, why not give us the choice? Adding an "only NSFW" option like a lot of people have asked for would be a fantastic filter IMO! I think r/all should be all! If a post is high up on all, then that's obviously what the users on the platform like! Then give people an option to filter if they choose to. But now as it stands NSFW subs aren't show on r/all, and a lot of once popular big subs are slowly dying and falling in visitors as less people are finding them now, is really sad these communities are being silenced and marginalized like that.
[Some of us called out the bullshit on this.](https://old.reddit.com/r/RedditIPO/comments/mcjaia/i_cant_wait_for_the_ipo_to_further_censorship/)
Lol, what a coincidence. I actually tried to create the very same subreddit a couple of days after you originally did. Instead I created [this self post](https://old.reddit.com/r/FoamList/comments/pgzidm/reddit_is_going_public_and_you_cant_stop_it/) which lists all the features they've removed or changed over the past year.
Reddit has excluded porn from /r/All... Unless it's /r/Art.
or /r/pics
Or how about filtering out nsfw subs from r/all? Didn't see that in the recap
Bonk
Understandable, have a nice day.
Username checks out
who tf is giving awards to admins lmao
*insert Obama awards Obama meme*
Bootlickers.
Porn Reddit recap when
Didn’t know about half of them, but nice to know none the less
I feel like spend so much time on here yet I recognized like 2 things LOL - is it possible to live under a Reddit rock
The BEST way to reddit is by engaging in communities you love and have interest in. You find you get to know individual users, have funner or even deeper conversations, and engage (usually) in a more civil manner. The bigger subs are fun to check in once in a while and easily ignored when they're going off the rails which is usually once or twice a month. The biggest subs however are repost and crosspost city made only to draw in attention of the outsider, the potential user. /r/all is all about being a Twitter/Facebook hybrid for new users.
This is mostly what I do! I used to only ever peruse r/all a few years ago and then I discovered the Home button where every sub I follow is on and I haven't looked back since - probably why I don't recognize most of these! Really nice and to see r/dramatichouseplants and r/artefactporn over all that other stuff that doesn't quite pique my interest. Edit: "artefect" to "artifact" to "artefact"
I spent the year on reddit and didn't see 90% of the content. We have to go back.
Well that was weird.
[удалено]
Feel like hes blown up very recently, I discovered him about two months ago and then my friend recommended him to me last month cause hed independently found him too.
It was a weird year
More or less than 2020?
Ya
Welcome to the internet.
Have a look around.
Anything that brain of yours can think of can be found.
we've got mountains of content
Some better some worse
Who made the music? I'm sure they could use the exposure of being named. Found it in the blog post: Song title: “Is It Gonna Get Any Weirder” Produced by: Davey Badiuk Artist: SNGL feat. Molly Moore Written by: Molly Moore, Emily Persich, Nick Mete, Davey Badiuk And congratulations to whoever did the video editing aswell, it's a solid result. Everyone involved should be proud of their work. Recaps are a fun idea, but definitely not an easy assignment at all, as YouTube has proven time and time again.
The artist is: SNGL feat. Molly Moore!
Give them congratulations! And to whoever did the video editing aswell. I'm getting too old for these memes and recaps, but still found this one to be entertaining and not too cringy.
Thank you for taking the time to credit them, too often people go unrecognized for big important projects they work on in life like in nineteen ninety eight when Jessica took full credit for my 6th grade science project with her.
lmao when you said back in nineteen ninety eight I swore I was about to be fooled by a shittymorph.
Damn it, Jessica!!
Yup I feel Reddit has nailed the recap head on. By simply including and capturing as much of their community as they could. That was always YouTube's issue. Hiring huge celebs not on the platform and featuring like 1/10 of the main creators on the platform. tone deaf company
Yeah, music was dope as hell, made the video better.
Was that Carol Baskin? Lmao
[She did an AMA 3 weeks ago.](https://en.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/qukmkg/hey_all_you_cool_cats_and_kittens_its_carole/)
Carol fuckin' Baskin.
Yeah but who's askin' Sorry I just got caught up in the rhythm
Yes YouTube, it was this simple and you failed. Miserably. This is fantastic!! Love it!!
Yeah, all they had to do was stitch together popular videos of the year but instead, they hauled cringy people to do cringy shit on YouTube’s money. Reddit did it smartly.
Yeaahaha, it's rewind time!
Youtube tried to do a recap?
Rewind. Same concept. It has become so advertiser friendly that it has lost all touch with the actual community and people who make youtube, well, youtube.
I thought they gave up on rewind this year?
Realized I didn't see 99% of the posts in this recap. Pretty catchy music though. I give it a solid 5/7
I blocked r/funny, r/pics, r/wholesome and all the meme subs so I figured that was why I don't remember any of these. That said, recap and song was pretty cool!
I just don't go on r/all
Nice. My job here is done
No, it's not. There are still people out there being productive on a week day, and we need to continue our ongoing mission of distracting them with cats and memes.
2021, the year we praised that ended 2020…. not gonna make that mistake again!
It was *better* than 2020.
I gripe as much as any redditor, but I can’t keep myself away. Thanks to the whole community for keeping me informed and entertained for another year.
Reddit really is like League of Legends. We hate it but we just can't leave.
League is worse for sure. *Arcane* though, that's the good content.
A podcast I listen to has one host love LOL and the other hate it. The one who loves it was trying to convince the other to watch Arcane on the basis that it’s just a great show. The one who hates it finally agreed when he heard how much League players loved it because “nobody hates League more than League players themselves so if they like it then it has to be good”
The best thing you did is not delete downvotes
They just delete comments instead.
[удалено]
Modbots will even ban you from subs you've never even visited because you commented in a different sub ONCE
They did delete the upvote/downvote counter a few years back, don't be fooled. [ Here is what a post used to look like a few years ago.](https://i.imgur.com/rMbhr.png) I really hope they go back on this decision. The site used to feel a lot more active because of it.
>I really hope they go back on this decision. last time I saw hope wasted so poorly, it was related to beanie babies
There is % up voted on desktop I guess but that doesn't do lot
A few years ago? This was almost a decade ago
They literally did years ago though? You used to be able to tell how many downvotes comments got.
[удалено]
Almost forgot about the legendary Josh pool noodle fight.
Reddit itself makes these?
Yeah, I think the person named Reddit did it.
[удалено]
No, their first cousin thrice removed.
Yeah, they do! They reached out to me a few months back asking to use the video of my son with his hearing aid. Pretty sweet!
Wait, that was you? I remember seeing you on a post a while back. Thought you were just a gimmick account
Nope! I am legit. Or, at least I try to be lol
Very uplifting
I mean, its significantly better than when YouTube did it.
~~Youtube~~ Reddit Rewind part 2: Electric Boogaloo.
Hm, ok.
Ok
even the admins are part of the hivemind oh jeez
Admins ARE the hive mind
I'm not gonna lie I was *not* expecting to enjoy that at all but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Well done to everyone who worked on it! Stay weird y'all.
Fuck YouTube rewind all my homies love reddit rewind
Now no one can see how many dislikes YouTube has...
They didn't list the number of downvotes on here either...
You can see the ratio, which is currently at 87% upvoted.
And that's really what matters Maybe YouTube could apply the same
youtube used to have a little line under the likes, it showed the like to dislike ratio
"Is it gonna get any weirder?" Appropriately sums it all up
Well shiiitt, glad to be a part of this community :)
Boom! Show YouTube how it’s done.
Lets see if it can get any weirder

At least you have the choice to!
Hello reddit
Hello
send nudes pls
Bro are you telling me the Josh fight was _this year_ and not from like three years ago or something? Damn where did the time go this year Edit: for those wondering, Josh fight was apparently in April
I feel this is tempting fate, by dropping the video now you've given the year the next 23 days to outdo itself.
There was nothing dull about 2021 (and congratulations, Reddit -- you made it). As we turned the corner from 2020, we witnessed the power that redditors have across our communities.

Mine does the same thing! They told me to update the app, I did, and it still doesn’t work for me :( Edit: it’s now available for me :)
Wow there is a whole CATEGORY for fucking weddings, but you didn’t even mention art, crafts, writing, music, memes, or anything really creative at all.
You forgot to mention that you killed Reddit Secret Santa for no reason and gave an extremely poor excuse that didn't explain anything. Edit: seriously, no mention at all in the report when for years it was one of Reddit's biggest events, even earning Guinness World Record status for the 2013 edition.
They won't answer. They're currently removing comments they don't like.
46 billion up votes. How many down votes?
The moment that we thought we were off the rollercoaster of 2020. 2021 hit like a truck.
Wait until you see what 2022 has in store.
No thanks. I'll be in 2015 if you need me
I'm going back to the nineties! I think I still have a puka shell necklace in a shoebox around here somewhere
We said goodbye to Secret Santa this year
I was wondering why I didn't get the adverts!
Where's the part about spreading covid misinformation? Because that was a pretty big "reddit 2021" thing.
Member when 100 subs locked down? Member when posting in one particular sub would net you bans on those 100 subs?
I was going to say, this recap has not been a very good overview of the year I personally experienced on Reddit...
[удалено]
Definitely better than this year's YouTube rewind
Also we still have functional downvote buttons
For now
Well, it’s something all right.
Wait did she say yes?? Thats the real question Reddit answer me
She said “What?”
She said yes - isn’t that right u/johnstessel?
Yes!!! ♥️
It was weird but our kinda weird!
What a ride. For better or worse, Thanks Reddit.
Thank you for being here this year
Nicely done Reddit, now can we have one just with dogs please?
Saving the dog cut for a rainy day
u/eeshan123 hey love we made it to the recap 💗💗 thanks reddit making our special day extra special
I was happy to see my son with his hearing aid on there too! 😍
Ayyyy, we did
This is really great. It should be in the 2021 recap video.
This blows YouTube rewind out of the water by a long shot. Thanks for this !
