Starting up with Reddit

Hello Resilience Policy Working Group Members,

As our research produces useful news and other data, I will be pushing it onto our new Reddit page. And I'll be sending you links to the Reddit page so you can read it too. 

If you are unfamiliar with Reddit, it is a sophisticated user-driven social media platform that is great for news, questions, and comment. You can use an alias, and you can control what notices you get. Please sign up to read and post your resilience related news and thoughts!

Signing up seems intuitive, go here: https://www.reddit.com/register/

If you want an explanation, here is an article: How do I create a reddit account?

I think Reddit assumes you have a smart phone, but you can register from their website on a desktop computer or laptop. Investigate what works for you. They try to make it easy.

Here are a few of their FAQs:

Do you have to have an account for reddit?

If you want to just browse, you don't need an account. If you want to create an account to participate in a subreddit, we don't require you to give us your real name. We don't automatically track your precise location. You can share as much or as little about yourself as you want.Jul 31, 2023

Are you anonymous on reddit?

Reddit lets you overshare without revealing your real name or identity. When you sign up for Reddit, you'll be asked to create a username. If you'd like, you can use your real name, but the vast majority of redditors choose a name that represents them, without revealing who they are.Aug 31, 2023
