I just nuked my account and fecked off to Lemmy after the API kill.

I just... left.

I didn't. I left when they killed RiF

I got banned for "attempting to circumvent a ban" despite not being banned at the time.

I didn't. I left of my own accord.

I said billionaires should be put to the guillotine.

I told homophobes they were pieces of shit and got permabanned for it

I got banned for repeatedly tagging a global warming denier in posts about climate change

I said Italy knows how to deal with fascists in a post about Mussolini.

I made a random comment about a movie’s premiere date on r/FauxMoi without realizing that FauxMoi had blocked my old reddit account years ago. (I have absolutely no clue why FauxMoi blocked my first account.) Reddit viewed me using a new account to comment on FauxMoi as “ban evasion” and now I’m perma-banned from reddit. I received no warning, no notice, I had no idea I was even banned from commenting on FauxMoi.

Every time I make a new account, regardless of the email or where I make the account, the ban follows me. I tried to explain the mistake, that I hadn’t realized my old reddit account was banned from FauxMoi and that I’d take down my (perfectly innocuous, on-topic) comment. Nope. They didn’t care. I’m just fucked. Thanks mods at FauxMoi, hope yalls choke.

I got blocked from the subreddit I created because I made it private due to the API debacle and refused to make it public until they undid the decision.

Someone asked if a prisoner being resuscitated has finished serving their life sentence, I said you have to be irrevocably dead, admins said that promotes violence.

Remember when Elon Musk had that black eye and said his son punched him? I said "can't blame him". Which is, of course, glorifying violence.

Banned for going after Israel and IDF shills promoting hate speech and calling for violence. Clear violations of the TOS, even back in 2023, but reporting it got me perma-banned after 13 years.

Calling for Elon Musk to get burned by the Canadian government for subsidy fraud. They took me literally, instead of recognizing the term for when a government disavows, or cuts all ties with a person or business, is called getting "burned".

I got "VPN banned" despite not using a VPN lmao

Granted I haden't used the service since the API changes anyway, so no loss there, but I did get a pretty big chuckle when i finally found that out.

I got permabanned for saying billionaires deserve death one too many times.

Permanently Banned for inciting violence.

I said the Trump government was going to put LGBT people in camps and this was a bad thing.

"Report button abuse" for reporting too many blatant ads as spam.

It happened right around the same time as the API fiasco, so I didn't give two flying fucks. I was leaving anyway.

Told some tankie Russian apologist to 'go suck your brother's dick again'. Boom. All accounts banned. I guess I hit too close to the mark.

A posted a meme in r/conservative that featured the home addresses of prominent conservative talking heads in a thread about how the left can't meme.

I got banned from /r/WorldNews and /r/ukpolitics for saying that "from the river to the sea" isn't antisemitic. It was in the early days post Oct 7th when reddit was virulently pro-Israel; I don't think they'd do the same nowadays.

I didn't leave immediately but thinking about it again really pissed me off as I'd been a regular commenter without much issue for years. It genuinely left me feeling quite depressed thinking about how little I mattered to them. When you get banned there's always some shit about how you should ask if you don't understand the ban, but one sub never replied, the other went further and told me to stop messaging their mods (I did so once a week when I wasn't receiving replies, to not spam them) so that was meaningless.

The irony is that here I'm usually getting downvoted for being insufficiently anti-Israel.

I left when they killed Apollo and third party apps altogether. The only way I viewed Reddit was through that app, so Reddit was dead to me at that point. I used a tool that edited all of my old comments, deleted my 10-year-old+ account and left forever.

On a video of an ICE agent, jumping out of his civilian vehicle and pointing an automatic weapon At some people, I simply suggested that it would be hilarious if someone jumped in his car and drove it away. He left the driver door wide open, and I seriously doubt he took his keys with him. I just thought it would be funny to see him react to that. It wasn’t a permaban, but it was enough to get me to jump ship.

I got banned for telling conservatives to go fuck themselves too intensely.

Banned from r/worldnews for "racism" (said that the Russian elites have been committing social and moral degradation for centuries, by killing, imprisoning or exiling anyone with independent thoughts). Banned from numerous subreddits for "participating in a hate subreddit" (correcting someone once in r/KotakuInAction).
