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.

I tried to like Reddit but every time I tried posting something I thought was original or thoughtful it would get auto deleted by a bot for not including the right "flair" or some other stupid shit.

I came from TikTok to Reddit about 2 years ago and after some initial adjustments I found the experience quite liberating in comparison. But yeah there are a lot of rules that you only find out about by getting deleted or downvoted. Lemmy is quite literally the essence of what makes Reddit interesting without the weird bs so this is an overdue transition anyway (although I miss optional user flairs ngl).

Posting in r/showerthoughts was impossible.

Questions about dark matter removed from r/space

Lots more like that.

Because you didn’t read and respect the rules

[–] gerowen@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Oh I did and even contacted moderators a few times to try to have posts reinstated after they were insta-banned by a bot. I just got tired of fighting with it every time I wanted to participate.

This is why I tell people to dump pitchers of water on Reddit employees if you meet one at a bar in Frisco. Also rub shit on the HQ front doors handle. Make them extra pissed off.

[–] GoodOleAmerika@lemmy.world 3 points 6 hours ago (3 children)

Similar happened to me. You cannot say there is genocide going in Palestine. If u say that are temp banned for a day, then 3 day then permanently banned.

[–] ZMoney@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

Just for posterity in case this follows us here, there is a genocide going on in Palestine. Feels like a mantra at this point.

There will still be an amount of censorship on lemmy, it might just be on the opposite opinion of yours, so you won’t notice it. I’m pretty sure we’re slowly turning into an echo chamber as well

[–] britaliope@kourjetez.bzh 2 points 2 hours ago

that's why if you disagree with censorship/moderation policy of an instance, you can move to another one. You can't do that on reddit.

Shadowbanning is a tool of the demiurge

[–] Takios@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

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.

They kept sending me emails with cutesie aliens in them after they shadowbanned me. Very weird company

[–] RizzoTheSmall@lemm.ee 2 points 5 hours ago

Don't miss Reddit. I got my 10 year account permanently banned for making a complaint about a mod who temp banned me for no perceivable reason.

Eat a sack of damp turds Reddit.

[–] SpaceShort@feddit.uk 2 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

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?
