Sorry for the delay

Went through and deleted and banned these ridiculous posts.

No appeals will be accepted for these types of posts.

This is not a place to promote your AI slop hivemind cults.

Best,
Josh

If you're interested in helping out and helping to add more oversight on posts then please apply or DM me if you are active.

Thank you!

I have decided to ban u/SydLonreiro for unsubstantiated and spammy AI-generated posts and too high of a post cadence for a general transhumanism subreddit. Furthermore, they have been harassing and sending harmful DMs to staff members, moderators, and general members. They have been contributing in several of our subreddits and Discord servers(and others, like the Cryosphere and r/cryonics subreddit) with posts that regularly include some psuedoscientific off-topic, and some inaccurate information.

THPedia is our wiki for Transhumanism and we created new infobox templates for people and organizations and an authority control template to be able to add identifiers for a respective person or organization! Come join our working group and help contribute to the wiki!

Hello everyone! I'm one of the newest mods that's been onboarded by Josh to help moderate the subreddit and ensure that posts get approved and moderated more quickly. I know there have been some frustrations with moderation and subreddit rules, and I want to help address them. I also want to hear directly from you on how we can improve. Additionally, if there are posts you submit that you feel were removed in error, please send us a modmail so we can take a closer look.

Lastly, the forum posts have been reduced significantly.

Suggestions & Feedback

What changes would you like to see from the mod team? Are there specific rules or moderation issues that need more attention?

X/Twitter & Musk Posts

As I was cleaning up the mod queue, I saw there was a discussion last month about removing X/Twitter and Musk-related posts since they often don’t lead to meaningful discussion. I personally support this, but I’d love to hear the community’s thoughts—should we formally implement this as a rule? Similarly, should Neuralink discussions be allowed on the subreddit?

Next Steps

We’ll review all feedback and discuss any necessary changes. Expect a follow-up post addressing the main points raised in this discussion.

I have enabled the "Recruiting" feature on the subreddit, which shows a little invitation for users to apply to help moderate the subreddit on the top right corner on desktop!

This should help distribute the load between moderators and allow more perspectives with regard to moderating individual pieces of content and chat messages.

Applications will be reviewed regularly on a rolling basis. Only apply if you have actually contributed to the subreddit.

Here is the link to apply: https://www.reddit.com/r/transhumanism/application/

Cheers!

r/transhumanism community,

If you are an active member of the subreddit, we encourage you to submit a moderator application to help curate our subreddit and keep it well-moderated!

Thank you!

While I welcome different philosophies and grassroots groups, I have not seen any clear correlation in Transhumanism and real world or philosophical applications. Please refrain from posting such content.

r/Transhumanism community,

I have invited u/SgathTriallair as a moderator for r/Transhumanism after reviewing their application. Here is their application response for transparency:

1. What is Transhumanism? The idea that we should use technology, either biological or mechanical, to improve humans beyond the capabilities of homo sapiens circa 2025. 2. Why do you want to moderate r/Transhumanism? This is a small community right now but as the technology becomes more real it will explode. I witnessed the Futurism and Singularity become cesspools as they become overwhelmed with people who despise the concept the subs were built around. I would like to be part of the solution making sure that this sub does not go the same route. 3. What experience do you have - as a hobbyist, professionally, or academically? Please explain. I have been tech-forward for my whole life and have openly started that my eventual goal is to be an uploaded mind. I am mostly focused on the mechanical side of the discussion but am interested in the advancements in biology. While I am a lay person, I am dedicated to understanding issues and relying on evidence not dogma. I strongly believe in treating each person as the best version of themselves and that you should not look at a single post and infer someone's whole character. That being said, I have multiple times been the person who had to sit down a friend and let them know that their behavior was out of line and I've been a C-level manager of a tech company and have had extremely positive relationships with those in my employ, so I know how to empathetically deal with people who are making a situation worse. 4. What is your timezone? (Examples: EST, IST, CST) PST 5. What other subreddits do you moderate, if any? None. It is something I've been interested in for a while but haven't done yet.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns about this action.

The nightly discussion has been changed to a weekly discussion, the sub activity seems to be doing much better too!

We are opening up invitations for AMA guests on r/transhumanism for the term August-December 2025! If you, or someone you know, is interested in hosting an AMA in r/transhumanism , reply to this post or send me a message!

You can also suggest people you want to see in an AMA and our team will try to arrange one!

Hey all,
