Our commitment to transparency
Our biannual transparency report provides insights and metrics about content moderation efforts by Reddit moderators and admins – including content proactively removed as a result of automated tooling – as well as community-level actions, impact on user accounts, and legal requests we received from governments, law enforcement agencies, and third parties to remove content or disclose user data from around the world.
Community voting
Redditors
Reddit users have skin in the game and share some responsibility for how our platform works.
Everyone has the ability to upvote or downvote content, bringing quality content to the top and reducing the visibility of low-quality content.
Redditors report harmful and problematic content to help keep Reddit safe.
Community moderation
Moderators
Volunteer community moderators create and enforce rules that are tailored to their community’s unique and often highly specific needs.
Moderators take important actions to remove content manually and with the assistance of tools created specifically for them by Reddit.
Platform moderation
Reddit, Inc.
Reddit has several teams dedicated to enforcing our sitewide Content Policy and keeping Reddit safe.
These efforts are done through a combination of automated tooling and human review to detect and remove violating content.
