got permed for suggesting that the time to protest is now, before protesting becomes illegal and prosucetable und law lol
I said fascists should die. In more ways than one.
Yep that’s why I’m here. They banned my 12 year account for sympathizing with Luigi.
Reddit simply doesn't want an active user base. They want passive viewers ingesting AI generated content. Much better for advertising revenue that way.
they have been culling via shadowbanning for a month now, much more aggressively like with the ban purgews. they following FB model, which is AI generated rw content.
You can't even play Nintendo these days
The censorship on reddit is insane, I can't even post this picture there !
So is Lemmy the dumping ground for people getting banned on reddit now?
Absolutely. I lost my 15 year account for using the phrase 'burn it all down' entirely metaphorically. They really, really didn't like Canadians pushing back. Fuck those guys.
I hope Reddit dies in a fire, and not a metaphorical one. One with the ownership group literally aflame. And I'd like to roast marshmallows over that fire.
Less dumping ground and more release valve. The people Reddit is jettisoning are many of their more active and prodigious content creators and contributors. The site admins simply don't want new human content anymore. They want passive observers who will consume advertisement content without creating drama.
Honestly that's how I got here lol.
Tried it out when the API changes were announced, but let's be real, Lemmy doesn't have as much content or user interaction.
It's allowed me to stop doom scrolling as much, but I do miss some niche communities
Yes it's how I got here, and hopefully Lemmy doesn't turn to shit the way reddit did because of its decentralized nature I hope
Reddit censorship is out of control. I got a warning about ‘violence’ today. My crime? I reported that the guy who is currently spamming every Australian mobile phone with messages about out the ridiculous Trumpet of patriots party is getting spammed back. I said “couldn’t happen to a nicer fascist”. Ffs.
Can we talk about how screwed up that streak notification is? Let's encourage people who show signs of unhealthy usage of the platform to further their addiction?
You have a 300 day streak of using heroin, don't stop now!
Many many years and ass loads of karma....
But apparently LIKING posts can get you banned now. What a shit show.
I got banned for pointing out that ICE are a human trafficking terrorist gang
Reddit banned all the people that made it fun, now the only people left are the boring ones and bots lol
Hello everyone. You're not alone. I got banned like for 4-5 times, using local Ukrainian words that may look like slurs, but they aren't.
I got unbanned, but I am still too scared to write anything about politics on Reddit. I want a working account there for IT questions.
Just got 7 day ban for wishing that Elon musk poof out of existance. Fuck Reddit, and fuck the tyrannical Reddit admins.
I just came back from a 3 day ban. I was warned before. In the 10+ years I’ve been on reddit this has never happened to me. But whatever. Lemmy is a great alternative.
My account just got suspended for mocking JD Vance in a joke thread. I appealed and got a permaban in response.
They keep sending me emails trying to get me to come back and I'm like "Unban my fucking account and I'll think about it."
My ban was for "Abusing the report system"
ie: Using it at all
I hope I'm not the only one in here who nuked my Reddit account voluntarily after they started ramping up censorship.
Basically, I saw what was coming and bailed off that site while I was still ahead.
I recently deleted my active, 16-year-old, account after being told I was inciting violence simply by commenting that a particular GOP senator had himself to blame for an issue he was trying to pin on others.
Exactly like my account except 30ish days ago. Welcome to Lemmy! If you're reading this comment the ban bots haven't taken over:
Luigi Mangione Innocent Death Elon Musk Trump
Reddit's AI report processing is terrible. I got permed for advocating violence, discussing a completely hypothetical self-defense situation in the passive voice. Literally anyone with a brain cell would have understood it was not advocating violence.
I just recently found out Reddit has achievements. I don't use their official apps or new desktop so I never saw them. When I see what Reddit looks like to most people it is so bizarre. Like completely different experience.
Thank goodness Lemmy looks and feels the way it should.
Lemmy. The support group for burned reddit veterans.
We were there. We put in thousands of hours of work. Years of moderating. Free work. Content creators. People who commented. Voted. All that karma ...
All gone cause you upvoted an anti trump or musk post. Or maybe you upvoted a photo of a tessler burning.
Maybe you didn't think Luigi should get the death penalty.
Don't worry brother. Upvote what you want. Be free with the rest of us.

If you're not a russian orc troll, you're not welcome on reddit these days.
I've had my reddit account for 17 years and I received my first warning for inciting violence because I commented "this makes me want to make a whip and go to town on these people" (a reference to Jesus running out the money changers in the temple) on a video of a megachurch service showing a woman painting trump bowing to a cross.
Reading all these ban stories, I'm glad I left during the API thing! I don't like censoring myself.
