I used a script to delete my comment history and no longer know my password not care to recall it. I don’t log in anymore, only lurk.
No, Reddit is permanently banned from me.
Perma banned for saying child rapists should get a taste of their own medicine.
The preponderance of flagrant double standards in moderation policies did it in for me. I deleted a 14 year old account when it became clear that there was going to be a clear effort on behalf of reddit’s corporate leadership to push bullshit narratives and purge anyone who spoke up about it. I figured it was only a matter of time before someone invented a reason to ban me.
Turns out I don’t even miss it.
I prefer Lemmy. The community is way friendlier and there are 9000% fewer bots. Also I frequently deleted my reddit accounts for mental health reasons and on occasion in protest and rebuilding a reddit account to the point you can comment in most subs is so annoying. In like a year of using Lemmy on and off I’ve had more real conversations with real people than I did in thriteen years as a redditor.
During the whole API issue, I got a permanent ban from one of my favorite subs over a random and unimportant comment that included a stream of insults from the mod. It was completely unwarranted and pretty obviously was reactionary behavior by someone projecting their bad mood against the world. I sort of looked at my hands and wondered why I would ever want to spend more time on that toxic cesspool. I immediately stopped using the service entirely and moved fulltime over to Lemmy (had an account already, but I was only dabbling prior). I do miss some aspects of Reddit, but that Reddit started its painful death somewhere around Lockdown.
Wanted to quit Reddit and the censoring of anything critical of Elon game me the impetus.
Banned across all accounts
I said “bad bot” to a nazi apologist, and apparently that’s “violence”
It’s a shame. I had quite a cult following for my “performance art”
Lmao that fuckin name. Love it.
Well, I quite enjoy fisting, and I’m really good at it…
I’m sure lol. Is that your performance art? I was assuming it was what you meant.
Lol damn dude, that’s wild. That’s gotta make peeing while standing a trick. 😂
Oh, I sit…
I figured you’d have to. I’m curious how the drill bit doesn’t catch though, is it blunted somehow? All the ones I have have a cutting edge to them
I still have my reddit account, but I nearly exclusively use it for a closed, non-public group I am in for nearly a decade.
But I have moved my focus to Lemmy.
I went scorched earth on reddit
Banned from reddit for calling violence on Musk.
Frankly, I’m not impressed with Lemmy either, especially because personal interests are just so much harder to find engagement on.
So, whatever that answer amounts to.
Well, Reddit was a bunch of Democrats circlejerking each other for Internet points to benefit a massive corporation, whereas Lemmy is a bunch of Democrats circlejerking each other for internet points.
So… I guess I like both because it helps reinforce that all social media is a waste of time and a blight on society and culture as a whole
Fuck reddit, I left as soon as I could and deleted my accounts.
Both. Getting banned from reddit did me a favor, really.
we were forced out, and it was clear musk was influencing the bans too, and so much astroturfing against “left leaning comments, over right wingers” is astounding, i pointed out how many of those posts are just ragebaits.
Steve Huffman is a greedy piss boy
