Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

Yeah we were banned by the CIA (there's a good effortpost about it).
TheDonald had moved to their own website months prior and hadn't been accepting new posts while directing people there.
Meanwhile Reddit admins spent months toying with CTH and its posters beforehand - individual accounts would get a 3 day temp ban for "upvoting rulebreaking content" issues every 4 days (meaning you'd get 1 day of activity) and they wouldn't tell you what it was for the most part. They did at first and it was always something stupid, so they stopped trying to justify it bc people would appeal it. You basically needed a rotation of alts to keep posting. After the CTH ban they stopped doing that across the board.
yo that's wild
