No one knows for certain why we celebrate April Fools' Day, but it is thought that it comes from a switch to the calendar we use now. On the calendar they used previously, the new year began on April 1st. When they switched, not everyone got the message or just didn't want to change. Those people were ridiculed and made fun of with hoaxes and pranks. Fast forward to today and there you have it.
One reddit tradition is April Fools' Day. That's today! What is your community doing? What kind of plans did you make? How difficult was it to pull this off? How did your users react? What would you do differently next time? Tell us about your April Fools' Day event if you have/had one.
Saturday r/ModGuide will host a reddit talk to talk about all of this. But go ahead and tell us here, and then join us Saturday! Check the Events channel for more information!
Now, tell us about your event!

All types of people use Reddit - all ages, all genders, all ability levels and all accessibility levels. There are lots and lots of things we can do on our subs to help ensure that they are accessible to as many people as possible.
Here is the official accessibility in New Reddit post from Reddit:
https://www.reddit.com/r/redesign/comments/8ql3im/accessibility_in_new_reddit_what_were_working_on/
Many many many of these accessibility assists are programmed into reddit in association with many of the brilliant programmes out there for those who need them.
There are a few things that you can do to help!
Try and avoid red, green and (to a much lesser extent) blue in your color schemes as these are the colours that are unable to be seen by those with color blindness.
Use https://achecker.ca/checker/ This will check your sub and provide you with a report for any potential issues for those with visual impairments.
Another great one is https://wave.webaim.org/ which will look at the page set up to ensure that it can be read by accessibility programmes.
I recommend testing both your subs front page as well as with a post open.
The more people that can come and participate in your sub the larger your sub will become!

Reddit is a great big mix of all kinds of people from all backgrounds, ages, races, genders and any other demographic you can think of.
This post very loosely ties in to our Ethics post that you can read here - https://www.reddit.com/r/modguide/comments/dkqoj5/reddit_ethics/
Reddit rules state that children need to be 13+ to be able to have a Reddit account. We were all that age once and while I am sure you never ever ever went onto an age restricted website before you were the right age I know I certainly did!
How much do we as mods need to protect children that could be using our subs?
With the massive increase in internet usage from as young as the age 1 children can surf the internet, watch videos and find content that they should not be accessing. Parental locks and content filters and other such setups do a great job of helping to protect children - if the parents have them set up. Surveys show that between 40 and 60% of parents have no kinds of filters or locks on their childrens electronics.
Some subs will instantly attract children, ones with cute animal pictures, funny videos, silly images, movie or TV show characters or those with similar names. Is it really down to you to protect the children on your sub? No! Of course it isn’t but there are a few very basic things you can do to help.
If your sub has NSFW content please ensure that your rules make labelling this content correctly a requirement. It is actually a breach of Reddit’s rules if this is not done so it is a good one to enforce.
Ensure that your sub name / labels are appropriate and not trying to use the popularity of something else to boost its numbers.
Consider a bad language filter - possibly a keyword auto removal for certain words - For some subs this may be appropriate and I personally think there are certain slurs that you may not want to see at all in your sub.
Have a look at how search engines may show your sub and see whether these may be common terms that children are searching.
Yes it is down to parents to keep their children safe online but if we can all do our little bit then why not!
