Hey Pandas, What Annoys You The Most About Bored Panda Nowadays? (Closed)

Can we be KINDER? Please? What happened to the "adorable animals" and "weird clouds" posts? Goofy posts that weren't cruel or anti-(fill in blank)? We NEED to be reminded of fun, good, happy things... Not judgmental AITA, not "AI" art, but feel-good stuff where we see human kindness and can agree on something? (For example, animals are adorable! Flowers are lovely! Funny signs I can deal with!)

Far too many AITA stories

I love looking at the photos of animals and mysterious/beautiful places, historical perspectives, etc. I’m tired of SO many posts involving workplace issues. A few are OK, but I read BP for relaxation - not to get riled up about someone’s crappy boss or work environment. Unfortunately, that’s real life for many - not entertainment.

i hate the goddamn m***********g censorship. i suppose some things are understandable but these knobs are censoring everything from countries (N***r) to cats (Maine C**n). can’t even say W***y Wonka, let alone mention [illegal substances]. i’m gonna unalive myself.

Repetition, the same tings showing up under different headings.

i would prefer to see fewer Reddit reposts and more art/photography. i understand that the AITA posts get more clicks, but they’ve been taking over the feed more and more over the past few months. i also don’t like the product and/or movie posts that are clearly just ads for Amazon. i guess BP is doing what they can to make money and keep advertisers, but i miss the creative content.

I wish they had more comics and lists that are just good things, like people's adopted pets, or some nice memes, or cool things people made. It gets old to see the same lists that are just about how awful people are.

The ridiculous amount of censorship that happens for absolutely no reason. They censored the word N***r in one post.....it's a country FFS!!!!!

The lazy writing.
The copying of Tiktoks.
The tabloid posts.
The banning system.
The f#cking cencorship.
But this not new information, we all know you don't give a sh!t and will keep making BP sh!ttier.

Let's all shït on the US posts. Please, no more.
That you can't reply to someone's comment after they've had a few downvotes.

Reddit Copy (AITA)
Reddit Copy (antiwork)
Reddit Copy (mimimi someone wanted to 'karen' me out of my plane seat)
Mediocre AI art
Post your kitchen hacks (yes dammit I put salt in my pasta water, yes f**k I know about acid in seasoning, blah blah, this is getting boring as hell)
which are either copied from reddit, twitter, insta or - currently - on BP
Censorship, you know what. This is the internet, not a kindergarden.

And DONT YOU DARE to replace these with those ridiculous "Disney like" wannabe artists and "USA against the rest of the planet culture shock" articles.

That no one is kind to each other - people are either being shamed because of their gender/political views, or people are being shamed for being Christian. Does it matter if someone is gay or if they believe in God? Just be kind to each other. That’s all that’s needed. There’s always either a troll screaming at everyone for their gender, or everyone on the site making fun of people who believe in God. Can’t we all just be kind to each other?

The filler text that precedes a ripped off Reddit thread written by the BP “author” to make it seem like an original article.

Please no AITA posts,
No Karen posts,
No awful situations at work,
What happened to the good, funny wholesome stuff?
Yes, I want to see funny memes and wholesome moments,
BUT no one cares about some Karen getting kicked off an airplane.

The AITA stories which are clearly just the person looking for accolades. For example-- "I gave a homeless person $10 and dinner and they complained. AITA?"
The ridiculous censorship.

BP has completely buried Ask Pandas and Challenge #hashtag near-zero participation.

Plus, why oh why does BP “close” the Community threads? No reason at all to set the timer on participation, especially since it’s already a nearly invisible section

The constant belittling and stereotyping of the USA. We get it, we've got tons of problems; but what civilization doesn't?

The lack of rotation in the featured stories. I see the same headlines constantly.

All the negativity! AITA reposts, "how I was wronged" posts, anything "shaming" anything. Enough negativity! We need more positive/upbeat/uplifting posts!

The awful boomer lists about what is wrong with this generation, what used to be "better" in the past etc... it's mostly just irrelevant stuff everyone's remembering through nostalgia's rose tinted glasses...
