[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 32 points 1 year ago (2 children) Having gone cold turkey and just left, it's weird no matter how you leave. Realizing how addicted I was, was kind of hard for my psyche. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago* (3 children) It's next to impossible to go back anyways, people are getting banned eventually. I've been seeing reports of people's 5+years acc getting shadow banned for very little reason it doesn't make sense. A comment removal, low karma, cqs scores, age is enough to trigger a full site wide shadowban. I've been hearing also temp bans turned into permanent almost as fast the temp ban ends permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] SpaceShort@feddit.uk 7 points 1 year ago Sounds a lot like what happened on Xitter after Musk took over. I suspect they are intentionally targeting left wingers. permalink fedilink source parent [–] msprout@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago Spez loves Elon. Wouldn't surprise me if he was bending the knee to try and get Elon to buy Reddit. permalink fedilink source parent [–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago (1 child) I bet they're focusing on the old.r users, they've been wanting to get rid of that for awhile. If they shadowban you and leave on your own randomly, there won't be another mass exodus. That's conjecture though. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] AtomicPinecone@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago* Anecdotally that fits my experience. I've refused to use new Reddit at every turn (save the app where you have no choice), and I got permabanned yesterday despite no real escalation in my rhetoric. I've always spoken my mind, and let fascists and conservatives know exactly how low I think of them, and until about a month ago none of it had copped me even a temporary ban. permalink fedilink source parent [+] YesButActuallyMaybe@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (2 children) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] rumba@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 year ago They can buy plenty of shit with your karma, It's a book personally written by you about you.

I didn't mean "just left" as in recently, I meant I left out of the blue 100%. When I'm done with something, I'm done. Did the same with lemmy .world. I don't log in and I don't look at any of the old places. Randomly, I get info from a search, but that's it. permalink fedilink source parent
