Paul McCartney’s official Reddit account seems to have been banned. The account, u/paulmccartney, had just dropped a set of photos and videos from the first night of his shows at the Fonda Theatre. It went straight into the r/PaulMcCartney subreddit. Then, not long after, the whole thing disappeared.

I don't have a vendetta. I'm entirely ignorant of the context you're describing. I got blanket banned from a series of communities by aforementioned user for (presumably) downvoting. I'm not really very interested in continuing this.

    Listen bro, you could have avoided this. You should have known that anytime you comment or vote on lemmy you could trigger a sensitive mod's paranoia and be banned for that.

    If you want to participate in Lemmy, you're going to need to learn to read the room, figure out the single opinion that is being allowed, and stick to it.

    It's better than Reddit here bro, just make sure that you don't stick out and you won't be hammered down.

    Looks like we're going to need a new decentralized platform.

    Or just a platform without people, because people suck.
