My reddit account got a strike by an admin for describing the risks involved in traveling to the USA currently (abduction, torture for an undetermined amount of time). The appeal I made to that was accepted but it left a sour taste in my mouth.

Lucky you, you got handled by a moderator who wasn't a raging Trump whore.

I got permabanned after a week long ban for "threatening violence" when I suggested that if a Trump was elected (it was in Oct24) started directley Aiding Russia in their invasion of Europe, that they'd probably end up with a dead president. I appealed and suggested that I wasn't threatening anyone, and that whoever banned me, was politically biased and triggered. and they flipped out and perma'd me.

I got banned for saying people should engage in mass protest against the arrest of judges and prevent anyone from entering and leaving the building in which they are held until they are released.

I'll create a new Reddit account when I can be bothered to create a new email address.

What were you banned for?

I suggested someone add an icon of torches and pitchforks to an email they were sending to company to complain.

Banned for inciting violence.

It's nuts, but once I learned that it was just an LLM doing content moderation (and probably the appeals, too), things made a lot more sense.

Spez is the exact kind of guy who would believe that community moderation is an "unsolved problem" and not, y'know, perfectly solvable by the same ol': ya hire people to do it.

I got banned after 15 years for asking why we can't organize to cyberbully Trump's current head of social media: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_Cheung_%28political_advisor%29?wprov=sfla1

This was in response to the White House calling Garcia a terrorist on their Twitter account.

I was ahead of the curve, and got banned in October 2024 for Promoting violence when I said "If a president decided to betray America's allies, and start directley helping Russia in its wars of conquest, America would probably end up with a dead president"

They basically told me to fuck off on my appeal, I had told them A) I wasnt threatening anything, and B) moderation is getting politically triggered and biased. and they permabanned me.

and I have since been Hardware banned from my main PC and my work PC, I still want to go back for some of the niche communities that havent emigrated over here yet, but I really cant be bothered to go and fire up a 8 year old laptop or something just for fucking reddit. its a cesspit and getting banned is largely a blessing in disguise.

Since when does reddit take a hash of your hardware?

That wont help, neither will a vpn or using a different device lol, I tried them all, think it has to be a different device youve never logged on before on a different network, i lost interest and just use lemmy now, reddit lowkey made me do stuff less, like id read more about my hobbies rather than doing them, like watching ppl game instead of gaming, but for any hobby

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Thank you for informing me. I'll take a look in ten years if they are still around.

In any case, I knew I would be banned eventually regardless so I just did as much agitating as possible until that point came.

My Reddit account was permanently banned for saying I hope Nazi scum Elon Musk dies soon. Had previously caught temporary bans for saying things like "We should overthrow Musk into the sea." in response to him having argued King Charles should overthrow the UK government. Reddit admins really don't seem to like it when you're righteously intolerant of evil scumfuck psychopaths who use their unearned power and influence to cause immeasurable harm to society, the world and its inhabitants. Things like that break Rule 1, threatening violence, they claim.

Although the permanent ban was only for a couple of days since I for once was successful in my appeal. I basically said death =/= violence. An obvious truth to anyone, except some Reddit admins apparently.

I've not really used Reddit since. Kind of lost my will to bother with a US based site that's clearly and predictably going in a US direction, i.e. spiraling down the fascist sewage. Instead I've been drifting over to here. Will see what the moderation over here is like.

For a second, I thought OP got banned from Duolingo.

I was permabanned without explanation and reinstated two weeks later, again without comment.

I believe this tracks with what to expect should we ever see the tech-bro billionaires divide the world into monarchy fiefdoms ocer which rhey are each the unchallenged lord and master.
