Would there be a way to block IPs that have previously visited Reddit?
Let's say I wanted to start a website and did not want Reddit users to be able to access it, or any traffic from Reddit itself, would it be possible to filter them based on their browsing history?
Obviously this would be very easily circumvented by anyone with a modicum of IT knowledge but it would filter out the majority.
>>52169385
>implying everyone on /g/ doesn't have reddit open in the next tab
Stop lying to yourself.
>>52169385
No, that would be a massive privacy leak from browsers.
The best you could do is block users when they use a Reddit referer but that's easy to break.
>>52169396
Wow, fucking kill yourself today
>>52169385
Reddit is not bad as a news aggregator if you unsubscribe from the bad defaults.
pro tip: sort the content by "controversial" to see the content they dont want you to see
>>52169385
No. And get back in Nazi Germany you fascist.
The easiest way would be to import IP addresses from the Reddit database into your own database and cross-check the visitor's IP with the ones in your database. It's not 100% reliable because a lot of people have dynamic IPs but it does the job pretty well.
You also need to make sure to code a manual override incase of false positives so that anyone caught in the ban can inform you that they don't use Reddit.
>>52169431
No you misunderstand, I want to prevent people who use Reddit from accessing my website entirely, if there is a way to do that.
I can already fairly easily IP ban people who follow referral links from domains owned by Reddit.
>>52169453
That sounds useful, are those records publicly accessible?
>>52169477
No, you'll need to root their servers first.
>>52169431

Is it impossible to believe that some people just don't like Reddit and don't find the community and level of discourse acceptable?
Reddit is extremely large and there are very few places now where you can be completely free of people from those communities, should you not desire to associate with them.
>>52169545
Yes, Reddit and 4chan have virtually identical demographics. Chances are the vast majority of the users of both sites are the same people.
Nerds just seem to get a superiority complex when they visit 4chan, and think they're part of some super secret elite club, and pretending they never look at Reddit, when they usually check it daily.
Stop lying to yourself and everyone else, faggot.
The only feasible way is to check their cookies.
Find out what kind of cookies Reddit sets. Then on your website you look if the user has any of those cookies.
Pretty simple, obviously not 100% reliable.
>>52169555
You're being a perfect example of why I would like to prevent the Reddit community from accessing my website.
>>52169567
That's a good idea, I'll look into it.
>>52169396
I don't like Reddit, it has a gay and ugly interface. Went there once, it was shit.
>>52169555
>Reddit and 4chan have virtually identical demographics
What the fuck am I reading.
>>52169453
Wrong. Easiest way to locate Redditors is follow the frogposting trail. Dumb frogposters are all Reddit fags. So you would have to install an image detection technology that identify frogposters when they try to upload pepe's and ban them instantly.
Reddits archive system is objectively better so fuck yourself. This site could do with revamping the archive so we don't have the same "Broswer Thread what broswer do you all use" every day
>>52169593
The truth
>>52169555
>Nerds just seem to get a superiority complex when they visit 4chan, and think they're part of some super secret elite club, and pretending they never look at Reddit, when they usually check it daily.
Please tell us more about yourself.
>>52169599
I know I spelled broswer wrong twice kys
>>52169599
4chan shouldn't have an archive at all.
>>52169567
Are you retarded? You can't check third-party cookies.
Reddit's /r/gonewild has much better tits than 4chan.
>>52169607
I like the archive, one of the good new changes, I reckon.
>>52169612
Actually, you can. Reddit posts their random seed daily on their blog so their cookies can be generated.
>>52169591
He's kind of right, Reddit has a fairly large population of far-right reactionary undergraduate kiddos just like 4chan, /g/ itself probably has up to 50% overlap with Reddit judging by the quality of the catalog at any given time, especially during Ameritard power hour.
>>52169555
>Yes, Reddit and 4chan have virtually identical demographics
No
>Nerds just seem to get a superiority complex when they visit 4chan, and think they're part of some super secret elite club, and pretending they never look at Reddit, when they usually check it daily.
No sensible person on 4chan has ever considered this site a "secret club." It's a website accessible by everyone for fucks sake.
>Stop lying to yourself and everyone else, faggot.
I don't browse reddit. Why is it so hard for dipshits like you to come to realize that not everyone goes to that site?
You are fucking wrong, but times have changed and seemingly it has become impossible for anyone to admit they not everything they say is true.

>>52169396

>>52169626
I don't really care if X subreddit or /r/Y is so much better than Z, or if you think certain communities behave better than others.
I simply want to IP ban any poster that has Reddit in their browsing history, or has been referred from a domain owned by Reddit, regardless of what subreddits they frequent or what other sites they post on.
Those restrictions would probably be fairly simple to circumvent, but would keep out the worst of the people I'm trying to avoid.
>>52169638
Which browser is that?
I want reddit whining fags to leave this board permanently.
>buh buh you can't use two particular sites at the same time waaah
Reddit is pretty much the best tech support forum out there right now. Meanwhile /g/ is good for... frogposting and desktop ricing threads.
>>52169385
You can't do that in a straightforward manner.
You might be able to hack something together using JS, but it wouldn't be bullet proof
Check if this is a new user by IP
Create img tag
Get current time (t1)
Set img tag's src to the url of the reddit logo image, hosted on reddit
Get current time (t2)
If t2 - t1 < (some threshold value), assume the browser had already cached the image and attempt to block entry
Of course since its JS it would be trivial to circumvent, but if the user was unaware this was happening you could then shoot off a request that adds their IP to a blacklist on your http server.
>>52169638
Literrally worse than reddit
Try Zuckerberg's strategy for creating walled gardens.
>>52169672
So even if you didn't visit reddit the next time you load the page you get banned
>>52169672
Forgot: you measure t2 in the onload handler of the img tag
>>52169396

Reddit is coded in Python. You can't use JavaScript to hack it.

No, it really won't. There are plenty of insufferable pieces of shit here who don't go to Reddit.

>>52169684
Yeah that's true. It would have to be a one shot test, after which the IP would either be whitelisted or blacklisted permenantly. That means you wouldn't be able to block users that visited your site first then reddit. Still better than anything else I've seen recommended

Your inability to comprehend advanced computer science concepts doesn't make something impossible.
I don't understand why people hate Reddit so much. It is a site with hundred of user-regulated subboards, it isn't some monolithic hivemind like the anime circlejerking here. 4chan is the single most homogeneous internet culture on the internet and it is the most easily accessible. To sit here and believe that Reddit is bad and 4chan is good and you are somehow better for using one over the other basically makes you a retarded faggot who should die.
>>52169666
>Reddit is pretty much the best tech support forum out there right now.
Maybe if you're some kind of retard who just got his first computer.
Otherwise, traditional forums with specialized content are still better, with better formatting and no upvote-bait and circlejerk posts, which Reddit is full of.
Don't even get me started on shills who upvote/downvote stuff based on what their company wants.

Except nobody has said that even once in this thread, infact I have made no positive or negative comparison between 4chan and Reddit, that's an assumption you've made based on some reactionary desire to take sides in a feud of your own invention.
This attitude that you display is the very reason I want to prevent you and people you associate with from accessing my content and participating in my community, because I believe it's toxic.

The fact that opnions (messages there) can be votet up or down is nothing good. The voting itself isn't the problem actually. The real problem is, that the comments are getting literally UP or DOWN with this, meaning your post changes position in the thread so that YOUR very special comment doesn't appear anymore because at a specific amount of downvotes it gets spoilered to a single short line which can also be easily overread.

>>52169812
I can totally agree with you.
>>52169717
I was just spitballing. Care to elaborate?
I know it's pretty shit already because it relies on JS which can be disabled. The user could also just send a spoofed "pass" result to the server. It would also be shoddy because you would need to pick an arbitrary value for the cache timeout threshold, which could result in false positives.
Is there anything fundamentally wrong with it though? Am I making bad assumptions about how cached images in browsers work across domains?
>>52169787
As has been said in the past. Using js as part of an auth check to access their cookie/LSO store will be your best bet. Going any further puts you into legal grey and black areas.

Like trollface or pepe the frog was ever of value.
/g/ is probably the board with the highest concentration of redditors.

Nobody said it originated with Reddit, btw.
the problem with reddit is that their format doesn't allow for any meaningful dissent
the very nature of pushing topics to the top through popularity breeds a platform where everyone in it will be agreeing with the topic they voted up

It's actually more like many 4chan users have been coming to 4chan for longer than Reddit has been alive and have seen its steady decline (le it was always poo!) in quality over the years, which has a strong correlation with the rise in popularity of reddit.

I really wouldn't mind if Reddit users didn't spill over into my community and basically destroy the level of discourse. I welcome users who are respectful and helpful, and who follow the rules.
But Reddit users are confrontational, divisive and disruptive, and, as they have prominently displayed in this thread, extremely reactionary.
I've attempted to ignore them, then I've attempted to manage them internally through moderation, then as a reaction to this some fifth column of Reddit users took down my site's forum with a DDOS attack for several days.
I know who did it because they boasted about it after the fact.
They've basically ruined my website's means of providing support to customers and our professional image, all because I attempted to curb their disruptive behavior, which consisted mostly of off-topic discussions, memes, and intentionally providing biased advice.
Now I'm tired of it and I don't want them to be able to access my community at all because it's wasting my time and losing me money.
I run a small business, I don't have the resources to battle Reddit because I won't let them shitpost about Nvidia in the customer advice forum.
>>52169870
>>forums with specialized content
>You mean like subreddits?
No subreddit comes close to the quality of some good traditional forums, either in format or content. You're probably very young, like most redditors, and don't even know how this shit works.
I know exactly two decent tech related subreddits and they're kinda obscure with very few users.
Any moderately popular sub will be full of garbage.
>I don't see one reason why shills would want to prevent somebody from seeking a fix for their shilled product.
Reddit is full of MS shills, for example (it's even worse than /g/). You pretty much cannot discuss any MS product in an objective way. "Should I upgrade to Windows 10?" "Sure, it's much better and faster and all the paranoia about privacy is just FUD" --> 500 upvotes.
1. become moderator of a big subreddit
2. subtly modify the subreddit's theme to make it serve some tiny piece of media from your own server
3. log the HTTP requests

No. My workmates are redditors. Dear lord. How do I describe it; they have this entry level aura about them. Like they believe reddit to be the coolest hub of the internet. They genuinely believe it. That any advice or news or opinion from reddit is correct. It's disgustingly uneducated, conforming, and shallow. Like that episode on It's always sunny where Charlie reads a book on law and believes he's a qualified lawyer. That's how I would describe a redditor, someone who skims a page of Buzzfeed or lifehacker and considers themselves an expert.

It used to be possible to check if people had been to certain websites by placing links to the websites on a page and using a snippet of Javascript to see if the color of the link matched whatever the browser's default "visited" link color was.

You could try making a request to a reddit page that would redirect if not logged in or something similar. If it doesn't redirect then its a reddit user. I'm sure reddit has a api, it seems everyone does these days, so check that. Browser security might hamper this.

It's a conflict of philosophy. 4chan values Cultural Capital above all else. Everything that happens here is destroyed eventually and if you weren't there you won't get it and we won't tell you. If you were, you now share something in common with the people in your community. That's it. That's where the value comes from.
Reddit, on the other hand, has a point system awarded for reposting second-hand clickbait. "Content Aggregators" have been the enemy of content creators since they were called ebaumsworld.

Well I'm not generalizing, because what is happening ITT?
Read the thread.
A discussion is being derailed by Reddit posters, in exactly the same manner they do so on my forums.
It's always the same pattern.
They provide some bad advice, or engage in off-topic discussion, myself or a moderator intercedes and requests that they stop, then the shitposting and derailing begins.
God forbid Reddit itself should be mentioned or they act like a family member has been assaulted and actually organize raids and DDOS attacks.
It's only after many, many, many incidents that I've come to correctly associate this behavior with Reddit's community, and threads like this further reinforce that association.
Here's an incident that happened recently that's a great example:
A potential customer asks for advice on a light server build, before myself or any staff can respond, a thread is well under way advising an i3 and a GTX 970, with Windows 10.
Obviously that is not at all what the customer needs, and as a moderator I remove their posts and list a Xeon build with AMD64 Ubuntu that has been well received in the past.
Not only do the posters take offense to me removing their incredibly biased and misinformed posts, but they also mistake the term "AMD64 Ubuntu" to mean I'm suggesting an AMD system over an Intel system, which obviously was not the case.
This then turns into a brand flamewar, the customer is nowhere to be fucking seen because my customer support forum now looks like LinusTechTips, I'm trying to ban people left and right to maintain some order, and somehow these assholes get it into their heads that I deserve some kind of retribution for "censoring" them and so enlist an entire subreddit to spam my forums with bullshit.
I've long passed the point where Reddit was given a chance to follow the rules.

No it can't, you retarded, pretentious fuck. Just because you use the word "yore" doesn't mean you have a valid point.
If you want a fascist-related metaphor, then Twitter's current policy would be akin to them sitting back while the SS (not simply Nazis, but the fucking *SS*) posted anti-semitic, nationalistic propaganda.
In conclusion, go fuck yourself.

Wait, so because you think off-topic posters are from Reddit, you see that Reddit users are posting off-topic content on your forums, which is exactly what you expect to happen from Reddit posters?
Aren't you dizzy from the circular logic?
>>52170306
Sounds reasonable
>>52170277
>"Content Aggregators" have been the enemy of content creators since they were called ebaumsworld.
This is it. This is the core of the issue. At its heart, the reddit/4chan fued is still a fight against Eric Fucking Bauman.

It's kind of hard not to equate this bullshit with the Reddit community.
They've had enough chances, this thread isn't about whether Reddit is good or bad, it's about ways for me to prevent them from accessing my community.
>>52170364
Look at how the thread is devolving now, this is currently every thread on my support forum since I made the mistake of not allowing them to post reaction images in software support threads.
only the ledditors are upset about op's question in this thread
Laugh it up you faggots. Post your reaction images and oh-so-witty "copy pastas." You're really funny and original and not at all cancer.
I want you shitfaced fuckers to understand something. I'm AUTISTIC. That's become such a shitty meme around here, but what I was diagnosed by a real professional just last year. And being autistic? it means that when I care about things, I fucking CARE about them. I LOVE them. I get LOST is them and I think about them more than ANY ONE ELSE COULD EVER UNDERSTAND
And I CARE about this board. I CARE about technology. And it FUCKING PISSES ME OFF TO SEE FUCKERS LIKE YOU LET THESE FUCKING REDDITORS RUIN THE BOARD WITH THEIR LE SHIT!
We should have KICKED THEM OUT. We COULD have kicked them out. But we didn't, because YOU gave them all a home instead.
And now this board, MY HOME for YEARS of my life has been RUINED. and I can't even fix it. But that's fine. Because I'm autistic, and so I'm DEDICATED. And I will DEDICATE EVERY DAY OF MY FUCKING LIFE TO MAKING THIS BOARD FEEL COLD AND UNWELCOMING TO YOU TUMBLR FUCKS JUST LIKE YOU DID TO ME. And I'll NEVER STOP.
FUCK YOU.
let's make this an oh-so-witty copypasta.

How the fuck does your tard-o-post relate to your previous weird ramblings about Reddit users shitting up your forums?

*All* threads "devolve". The only way to prevent this is an idiotically draconian policy like Stack Overflow, where dumbfucks are incentivized to overzealously lock and delete content.

Would there be a way to block niggers?
Let's say I wanted to start a website and did not want niggers to be able to access it, or any traffic from niggers themselves, would it be possible to filter them based on the color of their skin?
Obviously this would be very easily circumvented by anyone with a modicum of IT knowledge but it would filter out the majority.

Well Reddit posters are derailing the thread with shitposting the same way they do on my forums, how do I know they're from Reddit? Because they're actively telling me that they're from Reddit and that the reason they're derailing the thread and preventing discussion is because I'm critical of Reddit.
Except that on my forums that behavior costs me time, money and potential customers, because rather than being able to provide support and advice I have to spend my time playing retard games with people who think a software support forum is the ideal environment to discuss politics and post memes.
It's like they're completely unaware that some websites are professional environments with standards of behavior and this shit isn't acceptable.

>>52170509
Oh just fuck off.
You people are destroying the business I worked hard to create, you're shitposting from a goddamn Windows 10 gaming laptop while I'm trying to provide support to customers and get repeat business and every time you fucks post a pepe or provide retarded advice like "yeah you should totally buy a single 8GB module of Corsair Vengeance 2400Mhz for your server rack" it costs me money.
All because you have this absurd groupthink mentality Reddit fosters where consensus is the only thing that matters and if enough people agree with you it becomes fact, and you'll happily destroy any community that dissents through sheer numbers.
I don't even know how you faggots found my comparatively small supplier but you're ruining my livelihood and I have employees.
The worst thing is that because I don't like the website you use, through no fault of my own by the way, just as a reaction to your unprovoked bullshit, that my business somehow deserves to be affected and I deserve to lose money because I dare to question the Reddit overmind and attempt to preserve some professionalism in my support system.
You people think you're the intellectual cream of the internet crop at the forefront of the social revolution but you're worse than 4chan has ever been, at least if I was being raided by /b/ circa 2008 they'd be doing it because it was funny, not because they felt they had a right to harm my business for daring to disagree with them.
Now I have to go and do some actual work, thanks to everyone who provided actual advise and support, I will look into your suggestions.
>>52170603
I'll look into that thanks.
>>52170625
I suggest that you put them into a moderation queue so as to not ban any customers.

While sipping on my morning coffee thinking about this, I came up with an idea for your issue: whitelist registration (read:human intervention for account activation) and accounts for posting.
>>52170010
Your issues outlined here are resolved by this from this simple topology change.
In addition to this it changes your defense strategy from a game of whack-a-mole to controlling what and who is allowed in your community
>being this elitist
>>52170309
And in that metaphor the ss should be free to do so. As in doing so they are not doing any harm aside from causing fags like you to get booty bothered.
You remind me of those soccermoms that scream kick and cry about gun control.
Checking for reddit cookies might work.
As others have stated, a good way would be to block everyone having reddit.com has referer. Maybe you could redirect them to somewhere else automatically, that way you wouldn't even have to send them any HTML and it would have minimal impact on your web server.

Tell that to reddit's comment system, their nazi admins who deleted CoonTown and the userbase that wants to censor hate speech.

I'm surprised no one has come up with what I think is the best solution (you guys suk dik desu). Here it goes:
1) Start a content sharing website (something like a shitty version of imgur)
2) Make good content uploads to your sharing website
3) Post them to reddit or hope someone else does, if it reaches the frontpage even better
4) Log all the IP address that accessed your sharing website with a reddit referer
5) ????
6) Profit!
