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!

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'm using this to suggest that Lemmy is better. Sneaky but fun.

Reddit Starts Blocking Mobile Website, Pushing Users to Lemmy Instead

I've corrected the headline for you. Thank me later, alligator.

Good idea, Reddit.

opens redreader

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

How does that work? I thought Reddit effectively banned third-party apps by forcing API usage fees?

Either way, I wouldn't browse Reddit now even if they reneged on the API scandal. Bridge has been burned, and the political landscape there seems horrid nowadays.

Maybe like Boost for Reddit - it can be patched with Revanced and you can still use it

I read somewhere (who knows where) Red Reader focuses on visual impaired accessibility features so Reddit Corp waives the api fees. I assume it's cheaper for them than developing accessibility features into the official app.

They're still doing it? When I accidentally click a reddit link I don't get the paywall anymore.

Or maybe they saw that it was a 100% bounce rate from me and then reverted the behavior (like a cookie with a counter, after 20 bounces don't show the paywall anymore?)

[-] drmoose@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

old.reddit.com is unaffected

[-] zerofk@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 hour ago

The few times I click a link to a Reddit post I immediately change www to old. That new monstrosity is unusable.

[-] utopiah@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Perfect, I might even set my UA for reddit to mobile then, I need an "excuse" to keep on using it less. I still browse it without an account but I should lose the habit.
