Honestly, I’d be interested to hear about your adventures.

    I got banned from a bunch of subreddits by making one comment in Asmingold…and it was a comment against. Then got sent this pm saying if you delete your comment and apologize we will reconsider you. I told em to fuck off I’ll speak how I like. Censorship is censorship. Wasn’t long before I deleted all my posts and comments on by one manually and killed off my 14 year old account.

    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.

      Better. Not way better.

      There’s a certain degree of toxicity and messiness that simply comes with interacting with the general public. I’m not sure how one can build a system open to people, yet simultaneously not open to flawed people.

        I dunno, if this meme (all be it humorously) is accusing the Reddit user base of having a thoughtpolice that does insinuate quite a large sense of superiority which is just absolute pack mentality. Lemmy is almost exactly and fundamentally synonymous to Reddit, hence a lot of people moved over to Lemmy after the end of third party app support.

        So the only real argument one could make in pointing out the positive difference between the two. Is that the users of Lemmy may have a bigger hatred towards capitalism or think user support is more important than habitual comforts.

          Lemmy hasn’t yet calcified from corporate takeover, this makes it similar to younger reddit, and I argue better.

    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.

    My account got suspended and I had no posts on the account. Stuff like this is why I use alternative sites instead of big tech sites.

    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.

    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 blocked all the tattler bots and a bunch of the witch hunters on AHS. Then I spoke my right leaning mind. Shortly after made a bunch of pro-Luigi jokes.
