Got a 3 day ban from Reddit because someone abused the “Reddit Cares” function.

I’m just done.

You may see me around here but I’m just so tired of all of it.

It’s a fucking flashlight community - why on Earth is it so hard to participate without constant contrived bullshit?

And I don’t mean the mods on our sub - they’re great - I mean large sub moderators and Reddit’s lazy heavy-handed moderation.

Hoping to see more people come over to Lemmy in time but I know it might be an uphill battle.

See you later,

Lots of us here from Reddit it seems, I think the community can rebuild here quickly. I’m done with reddit myself, let’s see how Lemmy is!

    There's a lemmy page for hanklights too.

    I'm confused. Someone told Reddit you might be suicidal, so Reddit banned your account? I got a "Reddit cares" message during the reopen vote, but it did not ban my account, and I reported it as abuse.

    For everyone else, I'd like to suggest that future posts about Reddit and its problems go to /c/reddit.

    I'm hoping to see more folks come to Lemmy as well! You've got a home here with us!

    Also nice Beta QRV2. Such a snazzy looking AAA light.

    I just gave myself a lifetime ban from reddit today. I'm going to give it a few weeks so someone just doesn't decide to do a mass-undelete, them I'm editing all of my posts to erase any usable content from them.
