Another pinned post falsely accused Ukraine’s government of intentionally maximizing casualties, using human shields and refusing negotiations.Īccording to Reddit, quarantine status is designed to “prevent content from being accidentally viewed by those who do not knowingly wish to do so, or viewed without appropriate context” - leaving a community accessible to the users who were already participating but limiting its reach.Unlike the above two methods, Wayback Machine works differently. The day before r/Russia was quarantined, posts pinned by its moderators were accompanied by the tag “denazification” and a Ukrainian flag followed by flames. Mashable first reported the company’s actions against r/Russia, which boasted 265,000 members just prior to the quarantine.
The subreddit r/RussiaPolitics was also added to the quarantine list and given the same treatment. Now, visiting r/Russia brings up a page with the warning “This community contains a high volume of information not supported by credible sources.” While Reddit users can still visit r/Russia by clicking through the warning, the message remains at the top of the page. The intermediate measure is the same step that Reddit took to rein in r/The_Donald, one of its most infamous toxic communities, before the subreddit eventually earned a full ban. On Tuesday, Reddit added the subreddit r/Russia to its quarantine list, restricting the community from popping up in search results and marking it with warning messages. As major social platforms grapple with an influx of misinformation around the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Reddit is having its own reckoning.
