Announcement Megathread: Let's make r/Yemen better, we want your ideas

18 Upvotes

We think it's time to change some things around here, and we want to hear from you first.

Tell us what you want changed and how you'd actually do it. We're after solutions, not complaints about the current state. Saying "this place is dead" doesn't get us anywhere. Saying "here's a weekly thread idea that would get people posting" does.

What we want to do:

  • Grow the sub and make it more active
  • Update the rules
  • Add new mods to the team

If you want to help mods, leave a comment or send us a modmail.

We've asked for feedback before and only got a few replies. Then a year or two later, complaints come back around. Let's break that cycle this time. Put your thoughts in the comments but keep it civil.

خلونا نطوّر، نشتي نسمع أفكاركم

نشوف إنه وصل الوقت نغيّر شوية أشياء في السب، وأول شي نشتي نسمع منكم

قولوا لنا إيش تشتوا يتغيّر، وكيف ممكن ينفّذ على أرض الواقع. احنا ندوّر على حلول، مش شكوى من الوضع بس. واحد يقول "المكان ميت" ما يفيدش، لكن واحد يقول "عندي فكرة منشور أسبوعي يخلي الناس تتفاعل" ذي تفيد.

إيش نشتي نسويه:

نكبّر السب ريديت ونخليه أنشط

نحدّث القوانين والمحتوى يحتاج تحديث

نضيف مشرفين جدد للفريق

لو تشتي تساعدنا في الإشراف، اكتب تعليق أو أرسل لنا مودميل

طلبنا آراءكم من قبل ووصلتنا ردود قليلة، وبعدين بسنة أو سنتين ترجع نفس الملاحظات من جديد. خلونا نكسر الدورة اكتبوا أفكاركم في التعليقات.

Immortal Pages from Aden’s Historic Struggle in the 1960s

These historical photographs document a chapter of the publications issued by the British authorities during the Aden Emergency (1963–1967) and the glorious 14 October Revolution.

These publications and security wanted lists were distributed and displayed by the British occupation forces and their allies as part of their psychological and security warfare, in an attempt to break the spirit of the resistance and capture the heroic freedom fighters belonging to the National Liberation Front (NLF) and the Front for the Liberation of Occupied South Yemen (FLOSY) in Aden’s historic neighbourhoods, including Sheikh Othman, Crater, Al-Mualla, and others.

However, these repressive measures only strengthened the resolve and determination of Aden’s free people. Through their blood, courage, and steadfastness, they wrote some of the most remarkable chapters of heroism, culminating in national independence on 30 November 1967.

We republish these historical documents today so that our children and young people in Aden and everywhere else may learn about them and truly understand the price of freedom, the greatness of their fathers’ and grandfathers’ struggle, the brutality of occupation, the disgrace of collaboration, and the resilience of the people of Aden, who never surrendered their dignity.

Questions who do yemenis prefer?

10 Upvotes

i’m just a foreigner but i have just heard a ton of biased media from all sides and i’ve genuinely been horrified at just the death and sadness that i’ve seen with saudi airstrikes killing civilians, people starving to death, and all that horrible shit. As people of yemen i know both outcomes absolutely suck but if you had to choose between the Houthis and the PLC who would you guys choose i want actual inside info on what’s happening on the ground not just what i see in the media. some media portrays the houthis as righteous freedom fighters that are standing up to a big powerful saudi enemy, while others portray them as islamic extremists who are trying to push sharia law onto all yemeni people. From what i’ve seen both sides are oppressing the people of yemen and making their lives a living hell. i just want you guys to tell me who yemeni people prefer if any of these sides, and i would like to know what it’s actually like in yemen, i’ve seen so much beauty in the country from the old town of sanaa, to socotra, to all the old architecture. it’s a country that i wish was peaceful so i could visit someday, under whatever government the yemeni people want. i’m so sorry you guys have to go through all this war and horror over 2 greedy foreign nations trying to push ideologies.

Questions Any Yemenis in NYC looking to make friends? 🇾🇪🗽

6 Upvotes

Salam everyone!

I'm a Yemeni college student living in NYC, and I was wondering if there are any other Yemenis here who are looking to make friends.

I go to college and have made friends from different backgrounds, but I've never had Yemeni friends around my age who I could relate to, share thoughts with, or talk about our experiences growing up Yemeni.

I'd love to meet more Yemenis in NYC, whether you're in college or not. It would be nice to connect, have conversations, hang out, and hopefully build some friendships.

If you're Yemeni and live in NYC, feel free to comment or reach out. I'd love to get to know you all!

Questions Do Yemenis intermarry anymore?

7 Upvotes

I saw a video on social media where the girl was 100% south levant (palestinian) and there was comment joking like “Damn…this’s Yemeni levels of keeping it ancestrally tight MashAllah.” Then I started to have conversations with my mum who is half Yemeni and half Somali - her dad is Yemeni, who was saying they used to intermarry a lot and I was disagreeing saying she’s mostly a rare case etc. is this true? Or am I wrong?

‏سلام عليكم يا جماعة😅

Well I'm British Pakistani and used to live in middle east and Yameni food especially rice dishes were my absolute go to comfort meals. I was craving a good mandi for months so I finally decided to watch every YouTube video and give it a try 😊, next I'll make Lamb one.

I tried to smoke both rice and chicken with a charcoal smoker and it came out exactly how it should be, one question tho, I used saffron on chicken but it didn't gave the actual bright yellow like how they serve in the restaurants?

Discussion رأيي ان هذه المرحلة يجب التخلص من التدخل الاجنبي لبدأ لم الصف و تحرير البلاد من الحوثي

6 Upvotes

والله ان اكبر نقمة على اليمن هي السعودية و الامارات و لو انهم ما تدخلوا ما وصلت الأمور لما وصلت اليه اليوم، سوريا اكبر مثال كأنت الفصائل السوريا بعدما تسلحت تحرر المدينة تلو الأخرى حتى دخل الداعمون و و تفرقت الفصائل حتى قاتلوا بعضهم بعض و باع بعضهم لبشار و الآخرون سلموا رقابهم و ذممهم للداعم الخارجي، والله انه اهل اليمن أدرى بشعابها و اي دعم خارجي إذا كان مشروط فيجب ان يرد على صاحبه، احمد الشرع اخذ ٥ سنوات يوحد الفصائل يجمع و يقارب و اسي هيئة تحرير الشام فما وجد الداعمون الخارجيون إلا جهة واحدة لدعمها ان أرادوا الدعم و هي الهيئة الموحدة بقيادة احمد الشرع، ووصل الحال ان بعض هاؤلاء الداعمين منهم السعودية بمحاولة اعادة تدوير الخنزير كلب ايران بشار الاسد و لكن الله لطف و حكمة اخواننا في سوريا سبقت خبثهم و تمكنوا من قطف ثمرة التوحد بتحرير سوريا بالكامل، أنا ارى ان اي جهة مدعومة من الخارج ان ت غص اي. إشتراطات على الدعم او ترفضه بالكامل و التوصل إلى اتفاق توحد يمني يجمع الجميع خلف قيادة واحده و بعدها والله انه لن يأخذ الحوثي منهم بضع اسابيع او حتى شهور، هاذا رأي والله اعلم و لا أريد إلا خيرا.

Questions Traveling to Yemen: Is it currently possible to get from South Yemen up to Sana'a? Oct 2026

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’ve been traveling around the Middle East, and Yemen is officially the final country left on my list. I'm really interested in visiting or learning as much as I can right now, and I’m hoping to figure out the logistics.

I know the main highways are heavily impacted by the conflict, but I wanted to ask: Is it currently possible to travel overland from South Yemen up to Sana'a? If so, what does the route look like right now in terms of feasibility and safety?

Also, if anyone happens to know any reliable local fixers or guides who arrange travel or know how to navigate this route safely, I would love to get in touch.

Any insights, recent updates, or advice would be hugely appreciated!

Questions What do Yemenis from the south think of Ibrahim Al-Hamdi?

6 Upvotes

Peace be upon you all. As I was watching news covering the latest updates on the pushback against the Houthis, I couldn't help but wonder what the country would be like had Ibrahim Al Hamdi not been assassinated. We would probably be in a better situation, but we'll never truly know.

I know that he is beloved in the North and viewed as a martyr. I personally admire him for his efforts to develop the country, but most of the Yemenis I see praising him are also northerners like me. I'm curious: do any southerners support Al- Hamdi as well?

Yemeni Culture Yemeni banger music/drum beats?

3 Upvotes

Drop your favorites. I didn’t grownups with Yemeni or Arabic music in general, I mean for starters I didn’t understand the context. When it comes to Yemeni music they aren’t my top tiers because all I have ever listened to were the ones with autotunes.
But when it comes to Gulf music? I absolutely DO NOT enjoy them. All their songs are the same tropes and their beats are slow and boring. At least Yemen طبل got passion.

The only 2 Arabic songs I have ever enjoyed my entire life til this day are “My Blood is Palestinian” and the iconic “Bab Al-Harra” theme music. What they have in common are that Arab aesthetics, instruments and the fierce passion behind it.

Want to learn Looking for Yemenis willing to share their perspectives for my thesis

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I'm currently writing my thesis about the ongoing conflict in Yemen, and I'm hoping to connect with Yemenis who would be willing to share their experiences, opinions, or perspectives.

Unfortunately, I've been struggling to find people to speak with, so I thought Reddit might be a good place to ask.

I'm particularly interested in understanding how the conflict has affected everyday life and how Yemenis themselves view the current situation.

Participation would be completely voluntary, and I fully respect everyone's privacy and safety. There's no need to share personal details or anything that could put you at risk.

If you're Yemeni and willing to help, or if you know any communities or platforms where I could connect with Yemenis, I'd really appreciate your advice!

Feel free to comment below or send me a private message.

Thanks in advance for your help!
