Welcome

Welcome to SaidIt.net, a community focused on respectful communication and a variety of perspectives. SaidIt is a Reddit-style news-aggregating ranking-forum website started in 2017.

 


FAQ Frequently Asked Questions

Privacy, Security & Safety

Q: May I safely and anonymously use SaidIt?

A: Yes, but know that law enforcement, intelligence operatives, and/or paid manipulators infiltrate and present as common users on SaidIt. NEVER REVEAL ANY PERSONAL PRIVATE INFORMATION nor click on suspicious links without obscuring your actual IP address and browser fingerprints.

Votes

Q: How do votes work?

A: SaidIt uses two upvote dimensions rather than the traditional upvote/downvote dimension. 'Insightful' votes earn 2 points and 'Fun' votes earn 1 point. These are added together to determine a post's or comment's score, as well as your username's total karma score in the top right corner of all pages. Removing downvotes addresses the issue of downvote brigading. A second upvote dimension enables separating serious content from fun content.

Rules

Q: What is allowed and what is not permitted?

A: SaidIt.net is for open civilized discourse with very few rules. See Terms And Content Policy

Q: How may I report a rule violation?

A: Use the report link on posts and comments to report violations to sub moderators. Please be very patient and ignore the trolls by not responding. If you have an urgent situation and the moderators aren't active nor responding to clear site-wide rule violations, please post a message in /s/SaidIt to report it to the admins.

Mod Rules

Q: What are moderators allowed to do, or not do?

A: The SaidIt Rules for Moderators state:

  1. All site-wide rules always apply to your sub. Mods must not break SaidIt site rules or encourage others in their sub to do so.
  2. One person must not moderate more than the 40 sub maximum limit. Creating multiple accounts to bypass this is not allowed.
  3. Subs must not be designed to deceive or undermine SaidIt and the quality and integrity of this website. This obviously includes tricking people with fake legal warning pages, honeytraps, or subs designed solely to cause problems for SaidIt.
  4. Mods must not remove user comments and posts that are on-topic and made in good faith UNLESS one of these conditions are met:
    1. It's clearly stated in the sub's sidebar that the moderators remove opposing opinions AND the mods must uncheck the sub setting allow this sub to be included in /s/all as well as the default and trending lists so that the sub won't appear on /s/all.
    2. The name of the sub must ends with "_positive" or "_negative" to clearly indicate the sub's intentional bias, thus allowing the sub to appear on /s/all.

Q: How may we monitor for moderator abuses?

A: Moderator activity is 100% transparent in the mod logs, linked at the bottom of all sideboxes. Abuses of power can be reported and will be dealt with so be fair to enjoy free speech.

Markdown Code

Q: Are there more formatting help options?

A: Yes, see these more common formatting usages when commenting (tell us if you think something is missing), the Official Markdown Syntax, or this Beginnerโ€™s Guide to Reddit Formatting.

Q: What is the key to a successful submission?

A: Whether submitting a link or text-based post, a descriptive title with interesting content will have better chances of being noticed and up-voted. Speak your mind. A title is required, but expanding further in the text field is not. Beginning your title with "vote up if..." is an obnoxious violation of Intergalactic Law.

Subs (aka SubSaidIts)

Q: May I create a sub?

A: After your account is 2 weeks old a create your own sub button will appear. Thereafter you may create 1 sub per week. Subsaidit titles have a maximum length of 21 characters. Please capitalize proper names.

Q: How many subsaidits may I moderate?

A: 40 maximum (see Mod Rules). Moderator activity is 100% transparent in mod logs, linked at the bottom of all sideboxes. Abuses of power can be reported and will be dealt with so be fair to enjoy free speech. In your subs' sideboxes you may list extra sub rules in addition to the site-wide rules, above.

Q: Will threads expire, archive, and lock?

A: No. On Reddit, posts eventually are archived so you may no longer comment. On SaidIt, there's no date-locking archiving to prevent participation and just no reason for it. Threads remain open forever and ever.

Q: When configuring your subsaidit under sub settings, what do the 1) title, 2) description, 3) sidebar, and 4) submission text fields mean?

A: 1) The very short title field will be name of your sub in a tab or as a bookmark (an important label for navigating or saving). 2) The short description field informs us what your sub is about, in the SaidIt.net/subs lists, and to confirm you've set it up properly check the SaidIt.net/subs/new/ list. 3) The sidebar field is always on the right side, even on sub settings pages (with brief descriptions, goals, rules, etc). 4) The submission text will change what your sub's submit link or submit text buttons say in the sidebox at right (few bother to change these).

Q: How long may my subsaidit's sidebox title, description, and sidebar fields be?

A: In the sub settings the title (of the tab's bookmark) 100, description(in /subs/new/) 500, and sidebar field allows 5,179 characters maximum. This includes non-visible code and links. ProTip: If you are verbose use a word processor or https://DuckDuckGo.com/?q=Character+Counter.

Subscribing To Subs

Q: How may I stop being subscribed to so many subs and revert back to having the same list of default subs that new users get?

A: In your preferences under subscriptions you may reset subscriptions. SaidIt switched from having an auto-subscribe to all on registration model to a more traditional opt-in model in October 2019.

Q: Why can't I see the sidebar subscribe/unsubscribe buttons?

A: Some ad-blockers like ABP/Adblock Plus don't like the subscribe button CSS classes. Help us solve this issue here.

Setting Up MultiSubs

Q: May I make multisub links, custom private/public user multisubs?

A: Yes to all. For information on starting and configuring your own personal multisub feeds view the instructions on the multisubs wiki page. (Note: Lower on that page the project has been shelved to classify all SaidIt subs into topical groups and multisubs, so while incomplete they will work but won't include subs created since July 2019. You may copy and custom add or subtract your own sub choices.)

ProTips

Q: Can you suggest some protips?

A: Yes. Here are some Pro tips for browsing SaidIt and Super-protips for using Saidit and Preference Settings > Messaging & Content Options.

Home Page Preference

Q: May I set my home page (https://SaidIt.net) to something other than my subscribed subs (/s/subscribed)?

A: Yes. In your preferences under content options you may set your home page as Subscribed (default) (/s/subscribed ) or All (/s/all), since October 2019. Also consider utilizing personalized multisubs.

Private Content Options

Q: What private content options are available on SaidIt?

A: If you or your group(s) require privacy for your content, several features exist, free as always, on SaidIt:

Private Subs (invite-only) - entire feeds with private posts, private comments, and private wikis.

Subs always have 3 changeable settings: 1) public (all-access), 2) restricted (all-view but only approved-submissions), or 3) private (approved-access).

Wikis always have 3 changeable settings: 1) disabled, 2) approved-editing, or 3) anyone may edit. If the sub is not private the wiki is publicly visible (if not disabled).

Private-Sub Group-Chats - every sub has a group chat that is cleared every 12 hours, and only private members may access their private sub's chat. If the sub is not private the group-chat is public.

Private Chats - 1-on-1 chats are by default private between only two users (it's not possible to add other users).

Private Messages - all SaidIt users may send 1-on-1 messages for email-like discussions that are by default private between only two users (it's not possible to add or CC other users).

Sub-Moderators may have private group-message discussions between all the mods of that sub.

Private Messages

Q: How long may my private messages be?

A: Private messages are limited to 10,000 characters maximum. This includes non-visible code and links. ProTip: If you are verbose use a word processor or https://DuckDuckGo.com/?q=Character+Counter.

Chat Tips

Chat Troubleshooting

Q: Chat says authentication failed?

A: Refresh the web page.

Q: Chat says not connected?

A: Re-connect to the IRC server by sending /connect. Repeat if necessary.

Wiki

Q: Why can't I edit the wiki page?

A: Likely it's mod-only or you haven't been here 100 days.

Long Answer: Every sub moderator may pick 1 of 3 options to 1) disable the wiki for all users except mods default, 2) allow only mod-approved wiki contributors, or 3) anyone who can submit to the sub may edit. And the mods may set two more wiki-related fields: 4) Sub karma required to edit and create wiki pages default 100, and 5) Account age (days) required to edit and create wiki pages default 0.

Personal User Pages

(alphabetical):

These miscellaneous Wiki/wiki sub-pages (not to be confused with other subsaidit wiki pages) may technically be open and editable but please do not edit them unless invited to freely improve them. For personal pages, please use your user name. For pages on specific topics please use a clearly understood short name.
