So, I’ve now had a 9 year account and a 13 year account both permabanned.
They’ve linked them as the same user and banned me for a benign post on r/pics.
I lost all faith in reddit when they changed the api then Relay for reddit stopped working.
Base model app is shit.
Comments constantly erase and empty endpoint error.
Can’t even say ‘I like that player two energy on super Mario bros’, because that’s ‘violent’.
I’ve posted tens of thousands of comments and only recently had issues.
Got banned for saying ‘Elon simps in our midst’ referring to mods…who proved my point.
And finally now, they are paywalling shit soon.
Adios.
Anyway, I left digg in the great exodus for reddit, now this looks like my new home.
Rant over lol.
You must log in or # to comment.
Been here since the initial API exodus. It’s been pretty good so far. I hope you like it as much as I do. Welcome!
Yup same somebody tell him about the 3 day no poop challenge
Something about beans or something
Is that croc made of denim? Or, what could be called a “Jroc”
I prefer joots“Kids these days gotta pull up themselves up by their jootstraps”
What a stupid post to get blocked forever over
What a terrible day to have eyes
Something something I pooped on a narwhal.
Leave the narwhals behind. Here, we’ve got beans made of denim, aka “Jeans” for short.
And don’t worry about commenting your opinion here, people here are generally willing to listen if you provide supporting information to your viewpoints
Also Trekkies everywhere.

Where you are now:
remember kids:
A place in heaven is reserved for those who speak truth to power
Speaking my language.
Point of order: The reason a place in heaven is reserved for such is usually they don’t survive long
Only Lemmy sucks itself off this hard all the time
These replies prove it: nobody performs autofellatio quite like someone who recently discovered that social media platforms other than Twitter/Facebook/Reddit exist. The users of this platform are largely identical to the users of reddit. The biggest difference is that I’m told to kill myself far more often here
Found the Reddit mod.
I just really don’t like the arrogant, self-congratulatory tone some users of this platform have. We’re just all so much better and smarter and cooler than those dumbass redditors, and all we had to do was sign up for a different social media platform
Some people that get banned correctly on reddit make it here on lemmy sadly, like you
What makes you think I’ve been banned from Reddit? The fact that I don’t like the superiority complex lemmings have about our relatively tiny social network?
ETA: Not all of us were correctly banned from Reddit for abusing the report system. I have a perfectly functional Reddit account, and I choose to spend my time here because it’s a better platform. I just don’t like to cum in my own mouth about it
Eeh, I remember a similar energy on reddit back when Digg had its meltdown.
Most groups suck themselves off about how awesome they are compared to alternate groups in the same genre. Hardstyle vs Progressive trance. BJJ vs Wrestling. Ford vs Holden cars. etc.\
I feel like the trance disagreement is closest to lemmy vs reddit because the disagreement is on principal largely and the end result is pretty similar for a typical, disinterested end user.
Or maybe you should just go back to 卐itter?
Reddit needed you more than you needed Reddit. The moment you are slightly less efficient advertising money, they told you to hit the road. When people tell you who they really are, you should listen.
That’s a good point. Reddit needs humans, they’re forgetting that part. Maybe the shareholders are too stupid to figure that out yet?
Doesn’t matter if they cash out before others figure it out and are left holding the bag.
And you have now discovered the secret to why everything is shittier everyday in this barely regulated financial elite rodeo
The power mods will probably hold on and try to monetize their sub before they give it up
Reddit needs humans
i guaran-fucking-tee you they are outright lying to their shareholders about how much of their traffic is bots.
I closed my account 2 weeks ago after being there for 13+ years. Thousands and thousands of comments and posts. Oh well, I don’t even miss it a little bit. It truly became garbage when they locked out free API access. This banning for liking Luigi or shit talking Elon is so against what reddit was about, they’ve lost their way and I refuse to participate.
Wild so many are having the same shit happen…
Glad we are both here.
Whoever created this mlmym github repo that gives me old.reddit.com back is a fucking hero OMFG.
is that different from just using old.lemmy.world?
Same thing, also same as oldsh.itjust.works for anyone on that instance
Welcome to the fediverse.
Glad I left Reddit I got banned for asking someone if they were threatening someone else.
I got banned for more ridiculous reason, reporting someone is a bit too much apparently especially if you try to honestly report multiple violations, and they ban you for doing thet
They ban you for upvoting shit now
Like, that’s literally the whole point of reddit.
Free Luigi.
Fuck reddit.
Fuck spez.
One of my first issues was when I would say fuck u/spez
I admit, I said it a lot.
I keep getting banned for the most ridiculously benign comments. They aren’t serious adults there.
Exactly. Makes it pointless.
It makes you afraid to speak truth to power, which is what the tech dudebros want. Look at how far to the right Twitter has swung since Musk’s takeover. That’s what Reddit wants.
Truth.
It’s insane how crazy Twitter is now.
Literal nazi haven.
Any political motivated discussion is often astroturfed by Russian bots which triggers people into arguments causing bans
I got out recently too, albeit before actually getting ban-hammered. Given how new I am, it’s not really my place, but…: Welcome!
Probably would’ve banned eventually
Yup, and I know it. The alternative was an unpalatable amount of self-censorship I had no interest in, and even that wouldn’t be a guarantee due to opaque moderation practices.
I don’t have a problem with reasonable limits on behavior, but I can’t play by the rules if nobody wants to tell me what they are and / or said rules can capriciously change from one moment to the next with no advance warning or notice.
Welcome, hope you like it here. Reddit kinda went down the drain after the API exodus.
Welcome! I’ve been here since the API fiasco killed everything but their app.
Lemmy feels like old school reddit, I like it.
It definitely does.
I even have the old.reddit res clone on pc.

didn’t listen to my appeal that I was the one fighting the incel
this sounds so lame dude

Many of them are in cahoots with reddit admins.
They can link your accounts, via the same IP and device, and yourbm browser data
You harassed one person with 7 different personal accounts? ESH
I think what they meant was that they lost all seven of their accounts because one of them got in an argument with an incel. Reddit can very easily link you to your alternate accounts
deleted by creator
Yeah man. It’s trash there now a days. Welcome!
Welcome. Lemmy is like Reddit but the lemmings are more dogmatic and sensitive.
WHAT did you just say you little shit???!
/s
I think it’s more to do with community size. It’s much easier to have non-anonymous interactions on Lemmy than Reddit. You’ll probably see less of that vibe as Lemmy scales. Though, tbh, I always found Reddit to be way more dogmatic, sensitive, and above all, dramatic and performative than Lemmy.
Reddit’s like the Huffington Post of social media, which I guess makes Facebook Breitbart.
Lemmy has the same problem as Reddit. Powertripping mods and community voting pushing the lowest tier karma bait to the top.
.ml is the one to avoid.
And YouTube all the MSMs combined
YMMV. I can avoid the tankies and the Linux crowd are pretty chill overall, but avoid debating art at all costs.
Welcome, sincerely happy to have you. Now go post your favorite interests.
Definitely will be!
