ANSWERED Will using this platform get easier as time goes on?

So confused. I keep trying to comment on groups and I'm interested in or I really needed to make a post in a group for advice but I keep getting reported or whatever. So confused. 😔

Your posts in one specific subreddit are being removed by the moderators. You need to send them a message and ask them why.

To your title question, yes, the more you use the platform the easier it gets as you learn the ins and outs and get comfortable.

Reddit in 2026 isn't good for "I have a only one specific thing I need to discuss!" This is due to the growth of subreddit filters making it so new users cannot post everywhere immediately. You might check out Why Reddit may seem unwelcoming to new Redditors.

So first - look for non Reddit resources if something is urgent. Local resources and groups.

Some Reddit specific solutions which may help:

  • Can you comment in your target subreddits?

    • Many subreddits have less restrictions for commenting than posting.

    • Look for pinned discussion posts at the top of subreddits in particular for this.

  • Try alternative subreddits to see if they have less restrictions.

  • For some problems you might try modmailing the mods of that subreddit

    • very dependent on the mods involved, which are different subreddit to subreddit.
