How do I report a post or comment?

Asked 5 months ago
Reporting a post or comment is a straightforward process on Reddit. To begin, locate the post or comment you wish to report. Underneath the post or comment, you will find a series of icons. Click on the "..." icon, which typically represents more options. This will reveal a menu, and among the choices, there will be an option to "Report." When you select "Report," you will be prompted to choose a reason for your report from a list of violations or issues, such as spam, harassment, or hate speech. After selecting the appropriate reason, you might also have the option to provide additional context to help moderators understand the situation better. It is important to remember that Reddit takes reports seriously, and misuse of the reporting feature can result in consequences for the user. For any specific concerns or issues, users may want to explore further resources or contact information on the current webpage.
