Appearently the algorithm of Reddit has become shit this last days
That + I have begun to loathe the average “user” there + the Admin AI bot decided my comment making commentary on Reddit’s generally poor culture through very thick ironic language constituted “harassment” and perma-banned me. My 14 year old account - 2 “offenses” (one was valid) and it’s gone. I’ve appealed but it has been 8 days with no action.
It’s also just “people” parroting the same cold take like it’s hot over and over to farm karma. Yes Trump sucks, yes Epstein files need to be released, yes progressive policy, but like cmon, can we have SOME days where we can escape and just enjoy the internet guys? IRL is miserable enough lmao.
Ban-happy power tripping mods, recycled low-effort content, a generally discouraging attitude toward nuanced takes and critical thinning, and an absurd amount of bots and propaganda has really made me want to migrate. Anyways I’m here now, and I hope to contribute to this platform in a constructive and positive way! I welcome any pointers or advice!
Welcome!
There are good Lemmy apps if you don't have one yet. You can search "for Lemmy" to see most of them (in the Android play store at least). I like Voyager for Lemmy.
You might want to block some keywords then, as there's also a lot of American politics on Lemmy. You can filter most of it that way.
Holy shit there’s a lot of tankies on here lol
Hey I just saw your conversation over on Memes@lemmy.ml. You'll want to stay well clear of both lemmy.ml and hexbear.net to avoid most of the stupid tanky shit. Most other instances seem pretty cool.
Lol thank you for the heads up. I’ve already made a new account on lemmy.world and immediately blocked the entire lemmy.ml instance loll. I’ll be adding hexbear now😂
