Reddit

I received an IP ban for sharing the public list of DOGE employees, 11 minutes into my 10 year cake day.

I’m so happy to move on from that shithole. It’s a massive psyop at this point.

Finally deleted my account there just now. Place is so far removed from the principles it was founded on. Guess I'll be here a lot more... but hopefully spending less time doom scrolling in general.

I love how in r/conservative and r/antiSemitismInReddit (Ignore the name, they mean anti-neozionists and are willing to shame Jews who protest against Israels actions as well, they even have a tag for them), they always complain about reddit being biased against them when it is quite the opposite. Take Jibrish, bringing his Eve Online gaslighting and trolling from the r/eve community to the r/conservative community, also running around shamelessly in r/RedditSafety. Reddit is effectively Silicon Valley psyop, meant to gather data and keep an eye on the tendency of the more educated lot on the Internet (as well as keep them in pro-neozionist bubbles by pushing them in major subreddits like r/worldnews).

Hell, read or search about maxwellhill on YouTube. Some have taken that the fact that the account has logged in for private chats as having disproved that claim when all it proves is that someone, albeit lawyer, family member, or otherwise, has logged into the account. What can't be disputed as a conspiracy theory and can be easily confirmed is that Ellen Pao, former Reddit CEO, revealed Ghislaine Maxwell who along with Epstein essentially ran that, a Silicon Valley psyops, was present at the same Silicon Valley Christmas celebrations as her and other influentials. This is the level of manipulation, where there is money there will be a will to manipulate.

Reddit has absolutely no problem complying or letting US federal authorities and intelligence agencies access to all of the information they gather on your account on their backend. There used to be subreddits where you could report moderators, "karmawhores", who trolled and abused their power. They were banned from the platform even after complying far more than other subreddits that got to remain. Forget pointing out the genocide of Palestinians, there was a time where you would even get banned from worldnews for calling cryptoscams confidence games. After Trump's first term and the T_D disaster, the conversation seemed to shift from that failed insurgency (at the time) to a reddit spearled meme stock economic destabilization attempts. Reddit is subjecting yourself to be manipulated for the opportunity to participate in some communities, and they know it.

This picture was at the top of /r/pics one day and I was permanently banned from reddit for calling Hitler a 'fag'

collapsed inline media

I am not a homophobe in the slightest lol I just thought it was funny (I am LGBT and was called all kinds of shit on reddit by nazis..)

Thanks whomever got a post about this place to hit the front Reddit page. I was on Mastadon and Substack and bluesky and hadnt even heard about this.

Welcome refugees, the waters warm and we've got the kettle on for a cuppa

If only lemmy posts showed up on search engines, reddit would be finished.

Banned 3 years ago

Reddit has bent the knee, got banned for calling Elon Musk Adolph Tittler and telling one of him simps to fellate him after telling me he was going to kill us Canadians and we would be their 51st state.

Honestly we shouldn't be supporting these assholes anyway so welcome to Lemmy everyone!

Its truly nuts over there. I have now had 5 different accounts perma banned and im tired of evading their fingerprinting just to bypass each pan for similar comments. Like nothing that the general public would find controversial even remotely.

Dude! How the FUCK aren’t you triggered by 19 unanswered messages? I would have flipped my shit after 2!

People saw this coming from miles away since the rumors came out of reddit going for an IPO.

Question is why people keep getting outraged?

Reddit says they care about freedom of speech and liberal views. I realized a long time ago that their view of liberalism is to allow people who follow their narrative and ban people who don’t.

Sub name checks out

Have you all read 1984? First they will make thing illegal. Then they will hide away what is illegal. After that someone will learn something was illegal. Once they are found out, that illegal thing will be completely changed so there is no evidence anything was illegal to begin with.

I would not be shocked if try to scrub these bans so users can’t see if a community was banned.

It's a real shame. There is a treasure trove of information on there for niche topics, and years of researching problems and questions etc. It really sucks that it's gotten to this point.

I was still using it for researching stuff (mostly via the Kagi forum search) - but it’s the only website that does not work with MullvadVPN on. Getting tired of having to deactivate it. By now Mastodon and Lemmy easily satisfy my needs for tech news/discussions.

Every subreddit that is banned needs to be recreated on Lemmy out of principle. Unless it's gonna get our guy sued.

They have really unleashed the hounds recently it seems. I wonder how long before they start banning NSFW content.
