Their algo keeps permabanning me if I use their Reddit app. I used to bypass it by using patched 3rd party clients, but I'm too old for that nonsense now. I just don't post or do anything on Reddit anymore

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Reddit refugee here i never got my reddit account banned I just put the text I quit on its about me and left reddit (trying to find a alternative which was here on lemmy) but maybe one day it will get banned
I think you mean a virtual or figurative wasteland. A literal one is a geographical regionwith little or no vegetation or animals.
The definition of literally has ben changed to mean either literally or figuratively. It's sad.
"Literally" literally means "as written", or "in the literature".
To use the word "literally" to mean "in reality" or "in fact" is not that original meaning, but is literally - in fact, as well as a written thing - a figurative meaning.
Language changes. There are plenty of words that are their own antonyms. It's not sad, it's inevitable, and the sooner you can accept that the sooner you can avert the fate of becoming an old man yelling at clouds.
Is there a new word that means what literally used to, or do we just have two figurativelys now?
Actually, factually, in truth, for real, fr, no joke, seriously, absolutely, in fact, truly, truthfully, really, in reality, literally, I couldn't tell you, because only you can figure out how to say what you want to say, and if you didn't already know that there are countless ways to say that, that makes me wonder if you actually care very much about the topic, for realsies, in actuality. All you need to do is spend a few seconds thinking of another way to say it and you can answer your own question.
It's language. Of course we have ways of saying things, that's what it's for. Also you can say "literally" to mean "actually" as long as you understand how to say it in context, and the fact that you can correct people who you believe are using it wrong is a sign that you can tell the difference and you don't need to correct them.
And if we don't have a way of saying something, you can invent one, because that's how language works. People who tell you that there's some authoritative measure by which we know what words mean don't actually care about language. They're trying to kill our language, because a living language can't be controlled like they want. The good news is that it's impossible to achieve that goal.
Like if you're not going around lamenting the fact that "terrific" doesn't mean "terrifying" anymore then maybe it's okay if words change. It sounds like you survived that particular tragedy.
I really think that's temporary tho, I don't see it sprinkled Literally Everywhere like say 5 years ago.
im permabanned poster redditshitposter58. i first started reading reddit when i was about 12. by 14 i got really obsessed with the concept of "shit posting" and tried to channel it constantly, until my posting process got really bizarre and i would repeat things like "amaze balls" and "this" in my head for hours, and i would get really paranoid, start seeing things in the corners of my eyes etc, basically prodromal schizophrenia. im now on antipsychotics. i always wondered what the kind of "bad" style of reddit humor was all about; i think it's the unconscious leaking in to the conscious, what jungian theory considered to be the cause of schizophrenic and schizotypal syptoms. i would advise all people who "use" reddit to be careful because that likely means you have a predisposition to a mental illness. peace.
I'm banned from lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/piracy for being 'capitalist scum' because I commented in lemmy.world/c/technology that I didn't want the Internet Archive archiving my content.
Not quite the same as a Reddit permaban, but authoritarians and orthodoxy enforcers are everywhere.
