    A while back, Reddit removed the option to filter comments by top, hot and controversial etc. That totally coincidentally comes in handy with all these topics about Russia and Ukraine, where controversial opinions (read: anti-western) are now impossible to find in between all the Slava Ukraini people.

      Are you sure? I just went back to check and all the posts I tested still had the option to sort available. Maybe it’s a subreddit specific change?

        Weird. In the app I don’t have that function anywhere.

        Edit: figured it out, the option was just hidden lol. Away with the tinfoil hat.

          The fact that it’s harder to find the option, though. That’s not an accident. It’ll be calculated to drive clicks, at least, and to manipulate the messages, at worst.
