Hey everyone,
You may have noticed an increase in spam and bot accounts posting on r/birthday recently. A lot of these posts follow the same pattern, accounts pretending to celebrate a birthday while asking for upvotes, comments, or attention. These posts are not genuine birthday celebrations and can clutter up the community for people who are actually here to share their special day.
Until today, moderation on this subreddit for me was limited (and I am the only active mod), which made it difficult to properly deal with the amount of spam coming through. I was mainly able to remove posts, but the process was slow and difficult to keep up with.
The good news: I have now been granted full moderator permissions thanks to Reddit themselves, which means I can take a much more active role in keeping r/birthday clean, welcoming, and focused on real birthday posts. 🎉
Going forward, I’ll be:
Removing spam and bot generated posts more quickly
Taking action against repeat offenders
Improving moderation tools and filters where possible
Keeping the subreddit a place where genuine birthday celebrations can be shared
We are also looking for new moderators!
As r/birthday continues to grow, we would like to bring in more active members who are willing to help keep the subreddit friendly, clean, and spam free. If you are interested in becoming a moderator, please keep an eye out for a future mod application post or send us (me) a message through modmail.
A reminder to everyone: please continue reporting suspicious posts when you see them. Reports help us find spam faster and keep the community better for everyone.
Thank you to everyone who has stuck around and helped make r/birthday a fun place. Let’s keep celebrating real birthdays! 🎂

And I'm not pregnant this year!

Turned 29 today. The only wish so far is from my bank and my partner forgot my birthday lol, but I'm trying not to let it dampen my spirit as it is the last birthday of my 20s!
Everyone please keep me in your prayers and hope that I can secure a nice slice of cake today (can't decide on the flavour hence can't decide which bakery to go to)

At this point, I’m not sure if I should be celebrating another year of life or checking to see if my extended warranty is still valid. 🤣
My mind still thinks I’m 25, my body occasionally reminds me I’m 78, and apparently making a noise every time I get off the couch is just part of my personality now. 😂
I’ve reached that magical age where a wild Friday night means good food, comfortable clothes, and nobody bothering me. And you know what? I wouldn’t have it any other way! 😎
But seriously, 48 trips around the sun, plenty of mistakes, a few lessons learned, and somehow I’m still here causing trouble!
Here’s to another year of laughter, good memories, and pretending I know what the hell I’m doing! 🥳
Happy 48th birthday to me! 🎈🎉
P.S. I’m not getting older. I’m becoming a limited-edition collectible. Slightly used, a few scratches, but still worth something! 🤣

Turing 26, I’m not where I want to be and still have a ways to go. The past two years have been brutal with challenges I didn’t expect and safety I didn’t know I could lose, but I’m here! Here to rebuild and carry on. It’s a privilege to be here, if we make it so.

Hey everyone, just wanted to say that I love yall, keep fighting, keep pushing, my brothers and sisters. I finally reached that milestone and it hit me like a truck. And the Arthur's quote in the title is just exactly how I feel today. I'm not in the best moment of my life today, but I'll keep on fighting and you should too. I don't really have lot of people to talk to, so I'm talking to you folks, but my DMs are open in case if you want to chat. Sending virtual hugs to all of you Kings and Queens, God bless you and Happy Birthday. From Russia with love

I will turn 31 exactly after 4 months on 15th February, save this date and remember to wish me without fail
r/birthday • u/Noctis-Aven • 1d ago
I have been depressed so long, every year I spend my birthday alone & this year also, I am spending it alone, no one even wished me either
I feel like crying, I have no friends or social life, I don’t need parties or gifts, I just wish to have some genuine friends, I don’t need anything else on this birthday
r/birthday • u/Opposite-Citron4480 • 1d ago
It’s my birthday today!
One of the hardest days of the year for me, I hope everyone will have a great day and birthday too! Happy birthday to everyone else reading, even if belated, early or exact!
Have a great day everyone!!!
Lots of love!!!

The day has come and gone. I did get a few happy birthday wishes from people who normally wouldn't reach out. My mom gave me things I've wanted, wrapped in birthday wrapping paper. The day will be over soon, but it still feels so weird. When I was a kid, I used to count down to my birthday and be sad when it ended. Now I'm left sitting in the dark with my birthday ice cream in the freezer untouched, my gifts still wrapped, and watching a show I don't actually care about.
I'm 17 now; this is the age I used to dream about, and I'm choosing to spend it sitting alone in front of my laptop. I think it's worse because of the fact that I've graduated; I graduated 2 years early, and I'm doing nothing. Though I'm not even sad about it, I feel nothing.
idk if this will ever get better. Whenever I look ahead, I think about how happy I will be in the future, but I'm the future of my past, and I'm still not happy. I know I will wake tomorrow and nothing will change, because I'm not going to change it, and I know that. I will scroll on my phone when I wake up, then switch to my laptop to watch a show. I know I will do this when I'm 18, then 19, and so on.
Maybe I'll open my gifts or eat my ice cream, or maybe I'll keep sitting here and keep sulking in my faults. idk if anyone will see this, and I know how minor this all is. This is just some kid saying, "I hate my life but won't change it, my birthday suck, and I'm spoilt enough to hate it." So I don't expect people to comfort me. Sorry for being such a downer on this subreddit. I guess I just wanted someone to know.

My birthday is Sunday and I am getting more and more depressed!! This is the 2nd year without my mom and my husband and dads birthday is the 20th and 21st and they have passed away too plus the fact I am broke so once again spending it alone!! 😔
r/birthday • u/Polairus1 • 22h ago
So the 4th came and went n didn't even get a recognition from the company I work for nor my boss cause they imputed my info wrong and my boss is like the most forgetful person!!! So since I cannot find happiness on my B-Day whereas I quite literally have no family or real true friends and what I've been thru in my life that I wouldn't even wish on my worst enemy... I would like to make those who share my day n tell you all that I know how you feel and I may not know you but I Love You and we'll meet on the other side n a truly Happy belated birthday to you all!!! I am living proof you can go through life's meat grinder n live!!! If anyone would like to know more n how I survived feel free to reach out n msg me n I'll do my best to reply A.S.A.P., Promise!!!
