plainoldrecipe VS reveddit

I built a website that takes online recipe pages and just returns the main recipe in plain text. https://www.plainoldrecipe.com

Bookmarklets are great in mobile browsers. This is handy if you want to avoid writing an extension for a simple script.

I use a bookmarklet I wrote all the time to remove the extra content from online recipes: https://github.com/kevlened/foodmarklet

It’s based on https://github.com/poundifdef/plainoldrecipe, but it works entirely in the client.

Tons of mod tools built on top of shadow comment removals: crowd control, comment nuke, disruptive comment collapsing, contributor quality score, subreddit shadow bans via automoderator ...

Check your account here [1], you probably have removed comments you don't know about. Or comment here [2] to see how it works.

btw check if your comment gets shadowbanned later. Mods love to do that with comments like these.

Btw have any of you used https://www.reveddit.com/ ? It shows you which of your comments have been shadow deleted by the m*ds

You can see which ones were removed for you on reveddit

> how is an explicit ban any less discouraging?

It's about whose messages are sidelined, not who gets discouraged.

With shadow removals, good-faith users' content is elbowed out without their knowledge. Since they don't know about it, they don't adjust behavior and do not bring their comments elsewhere.

Over 50% of Reddit users have removed content they don't know about. Just look at what people say when they find out [1].

> and evidently it does work against spammers here on HN

It doesn't. It benefits people who know how to work the system. The more secret it is, the more special knowledge you need.
