Questions about this list
How is this r/offmychest list built?
Once a week we read r/offmychest's top posts of the week through Apify, a web-data platform, keep the public, safe-for-work posts from the last 7 days (pinned and moderator posts left out), and rank them by upvotes, no more than two per author. Every number is Reddit's public count at the time we read it.
Why are the stories not on the page?
Because they belong to the people who wrote them. We show each post's title, score and comment count and link to the thread on Reddit. Read it there.
Can I turn one of these into a video?
Use it as a premise, not a script. “Make a story video on this premise” opens our Reddit-story format with the title as an idea, and our writer produces an original story around it: new characters, new details, your voice. Reading someone's post word for word as your own content is both against most platforms' rules and a bad way to build an account.
Why do some posts have no video button?
Posts whose titles are about a death, a crime or a disaster are listed, because leaving them out would misrepresent the week, but we do not offer to turn them into content.
Is this affiliated with Reddit?
No. Veedio is an independent short-video maker. Every post here links to its thread on Reddit.
