I hate reddit. They blocked all of my accounts for no reason. And they're so vague explaining why, and when I tried to appeal, the whole site crashed. Literally joined Lemmy yesterday.

    Welcome. Yeah Reddit is an evil forum. Blocked me too when I was doing an ANTI racist statement. Apparently the moderhater thought I was racist, block for life, appeal never helped. I think they cannot read properly.

    16 year old reddit account. I got a 3 day suspension for "harassment" for telling the mods of a joe rogan sub that their sub is full of "losers". I was completely censoring myself by being so soft in my critique. Evidently right wing snowflakes are big fans of cancel culture. Deleted the app & here I am!

    Guess we are all here. I also had a 10+ year account and the last few months started getting bans for relatively tame views, most of them taken out of context and then I finally got perma banned.

    Scrubbed and deleted all my comments with a Firefox extension and deleted my account. If many of us very active users do this, I believe it can make a dent in their content.

    I need to learn more about what's OK on federated platforms like lemmy, but Im interested in creating a mirror bot that clones all the posts on Reddit. Just a one-way mirror to help boost content depth. Maybe it would be best to create a dedicated lemmy server for that purpose.

    Thank you! That's crazy man. Man i hate it so much, you can get banned for literally anything, with no solid reason and explanation. It really is evil. Built a niche news subreddit from the ground up and it was doing good, with about 100 members in 2-3 months. Lost it. I was moderating another bigger subreddit aswell, made it grow and better, all for nothing.

    I used Reddit since near it's start, never banned until recently. Apparently saying that public officials who betray their country and the will of the people should be burned at the stake is me making threats. Seems pretty reasonable to me.

    Lol I quit reddit a couple of years ago when they did the API thing. Recently went on there cos I was googling some game stuff that led me there - and I found that the account that was logged in had been banned. I hadn't commented or voted out even really been there for 2 years and somewhere in that time I earned a ban, somehow. Gotta laugh.
