In over 2 decades of internet, i can safely say banning users for upvoting things is the most ridiculous thing i’ve ever seen a discussion board ever do. Just remove upvotes at this point and have the feed curated by Lord Muskrat.
Comment on Musk 'Pressured' Reddit CEO to Silence DOGE Critics, Leaving Moderators Outraged: Report.
MBech@feddit.dk 4 weeks agoI’ve been here for about a month, switching bettween this and Reddit, while still mostly using Reddit. This made me leave Reddit completely. This and getting banned for 3 days for upvoting a comment was the final straw.

Similar final straw for me.
I had wrote an anti putin thing under a post of Selenskyj where he stated putin will soon die, I confirmed that I hope so too and got like 400 upvotes and a hour or two later got deleted and a 3 day ban.

Since democracy is literally built on murdering fascists and monarchs (or just authoritarians in generel), it seems pretty wild to me that it’s seen as a radical belief that they should die. If we’re forced to tolerate leaders whose claim to power is based on supressing and murdering dissidents in an effort to quash democratic thought, what in the actual fuck are we supposed to do to?

I’m surprised that the loss of 3rd party apps almost 2 years ago wasn’t the final straw for y’all, but either way I’m glad you finally made it here.

That’s when I made the switch. I can’t believe it’s been that long already.

Yeah same, I guess time flies when you’re bombarded with shit 24/7
Regrettable_incident@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
Yeah that was when I finally left too. I just didn’t think it was worth it if I had to use the website or their crappy app

I’ve been using an unofficial Infinity For Reddit version since then, so it didn’t really make a difference for me.
