I just came back from a 3 day ban. I was warned before. In the 10+ years I’ve been on reddit this has never happened to me. But whatever. Lemmy is a great alternative.
Getting mixed signals from Reddit. Furthermore I shall henceforth be on Lemmy full time.

I recently deleted my active, 16-year-old, account after being told I was inciting violence simply by commenting that a particular GOP senator had himself to blame for an issue he was trying to pin on others.

Reddit’s AI report processing is terrible. I got permed for advocating violence, discussing a completely hypothetical self-defense situation in the passive voice. Literally anyone with a brain cell would have understood it was not advocating violence.
AugustWest@lemm.ee 11 months ago
I just recently found out Reddit has achievements. I don’t use their official apps or new desktop so I never saw them. When I see what Reddit looks like to most people it is so bizarre. Like completely different experience.
Thank goodness Lemmy looks and feels the way it should.
Allemaniac@lemmy.world 11 months ago
got permed for suggesting that the time to protest is now, before protesting becomes illegal and prosucetable und law lol
Tiger666@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
I said fascists should die. In more ways than one.
DFX4509B_2@lemmy.org 11 months ago
I hope I’m not the only one in here who nuked my Reddit account voluntarily after they started ramping up censorship.
Billonthehill@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Reddit censorship is out of control. I got a warning about ‘violence’ today. My crime? I reported that the guy who is currently spamming every Australian mobile phone with messages about out the ridiculous Trumpet of patriots party is getting spammed back. I said “couldn’t happen to a nicer fascist”. Ffs.
debil@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Do they really nag for streaks? Damn, it’s sadder than I thought…

They’re banning all humans
IamJim@lemm.ee 11 months ago
I’m permanently reddit band there for I am.
Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 11 months ago
Anglo_Amerikan@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Hey look! It’s Reddit’s future! Full of censorship, just like the CCP!
DriftingLynx@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
There’re ever so annoying for pointing out the truth.
HawlSera@lemm.ee 11 months ago
They keep sending me emails trying to get me to come back and I’m like “Unban my fucking account and I’ll think about it.”
My ban was for “Abusing the report system”
ie: Using it at all
WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 11 months ago
It’s because they are sadistic, corporate bastards that need to be taken down! All corporate bastards need to be taken down.
We don’t need corporations, we need all volunteer, donation-funded organizations.
Tiger666@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
Coops for the win!
WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 11 months ago
I had plans on Reddit, now I have plans on Lemmy!
sapetoku@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
My account just got suspended for mocking JD Vance in a joke thread. I appealed and got a permaban in response.
ibelieveinthehousehippo@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
Mine was suspended for bullying or some shit because I told Mrs Guyliner to get fucked when she was taking her little vacation to Greenland
sapetoku@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Looks like you get banned for mentioning him…
turnip@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
You still get banned here too. The mods can disagree politically and just ban you as they can on reddit.
Pilferjinx@lemmy.world 11 months ago
As long as you’re not trolling/propaganding or spewing hate speech you should be fine.
Trihilis@ani.social 11 months ago
Yeah but at least the platform is decentralised meaning you can still move your stuff to a better instance.
On reddit you can do no such thing. Lemmy is definitely not perfect but still miles better than reddit.
Sasquatch@lemmy.ml 11 months ago
Theres like, a little bit more transparency with the modlog
Anglo_Amerikan@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Just got 7 day ban for wishing that Elon musk poof out of existance. Fuck Reddit, and fuck the tyrannical Reddit admins.
paperazzi@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I received a 7 day ban for threatening violence. My comment was, “He should have spray-painted a swastika in red” in response to video of a guy who spray-painted “USA” on a presidential placard in Trump Tower. I’m done with Reddit after 11 years.
drhodl@lemmy.world 11 months ago
If you’re not a russian orc bot, you’re not welcome on reddit these days.
HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
Someone should start Blueit. See cuz they blew it, get it?

Leg@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Top tier pun
HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
Just awful, but I thought it was right there, you know?
postalstiffler@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Yep that’s why I’m here. They banned my 12 year account for sympathizing with Luigi.
FourWaveforms@lemm.ee 11 months ago
You can’t even play Nintendo these days
redundantgrouch@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
We’re Gooigi gang here. So watch yourself.
UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Reddit simply doesn’t want an active user base. They want passive viewers ingesting AI generated content.
Ledericas@lemm.ee 11 months ago
they have been culling via shadowbanning for a month now, much more aggressively like with the ban purgews.
lonny2233@lemm.ee 11 months ago

TangledHyphae@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Why would you spam in this thread?
tomi000@lemmy.world 11 months ago
So is Lemmy the dumping ground for people getting banned on reddit now?
FourWaveforms@lemm.ee 11 months ago
It’s the next best thing. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Less dumping ground and more release valve. The people Reddit is jettisoning are many of their more active and prodigious content creators and contributors. The site admins simply don’t want new human content anymore. They want passive observers who will consume advertisement content without creating drama.
JcbAzPx@lemmy.world 11 months ago
What they’ll end up with is bots watching Russian trolls.
sugarfoot00@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
Absolutely. I lost my 15 year account for using the phrase ‘burn it all down’ entirely metaphorically. They really, really didn’t like Canadians pushing back. Fuck those guys.
I hope Reddit dies in a fire, and not a metaphorical one. One with the ownership group literally aflame. And I’d like to roast marshmallows over that fire.
Tiger666@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
I got banned from tik tok for saying that on day two of a US invasion into Canada, I would burn down their orange house. Of course, I was replying to an American saying we would be soft and easy to take over.
BackgrndNoize@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Yes it’s how I got here, and hopefully Lemmy doesn’t turn to shit the way reddit did because of its decentralized nature I hope
nectar45@lemmy.zip 11 months ago
Yep, that is why I am here
WhiteBurrito@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Honestly that’s how I got here lol.
Tried it out when the API changes were announced, but let’s be real, Lemmy doesn’t have as much content or user interaction.
It’s allowed me to stop doom scrolling as much, but I do miss some niche communities
NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 11 months ago
You get used to it. Been here happily for coming on two years. Honestly, less content means I can’t scroll 24/7 which has turned into a positive for me.
Fewer niche communities definitely sucks though. Time to start one I guess? :P
nagaram@startrek.website 11 months ago
Odd since it’s arguably just as easy to make a new reddit account
pleasegoaway@lemm.ee 11 months ago
But why would I want to make a new account on Reddit after getting banned for saying things that people need to hear?
If Reddit wants some passive bullshit audience that can’t talk back, and that swallows bullshit posting, I’m good elsewhere.
tomi000@lemmy.world 11 months ago
That would assume you dont have a grudge against the site for banning you.
Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 11 months ago
I think it’s more like getting used to the freedoms of Lemmy increases the likelihood of popping up on the radar of some dubious Reddit admins.
CannedYeet@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Can we talk about how screwed up that streak notification is? Let’s encourage people who show signs of unhealthy usage of the platform to further their addiction?
You have a 300 day streak of using heroin, don’t stop now!
ThatGuy46475@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Wait until you hear about sportsbook apps
pleasegoaway@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Daily usage streaks isn’t a “screwed up” notification.
Plenty of people read a newspaper everyday. Or check socials each day.
A more accurate measure for unhealthy, addictive usage would be hours per day, or week.
InnerScientist@lemmy.world 11 months ago
But my streak is at 419, I can’t stop now!
Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 11 months ago
people who show signs of unhealthy usage of the platform
Hey! (You’re absolutely right)
umbraroze@slrpnk.net 11 months ago
These days both Twitter and Reddit have wacky UI messages written by completely different teams. One team is all business-like “Here’s some stern warnings you’re not going to like.” The other team is all casual and wayyy too friendly and fellow-kidsy, like “Did someone say MEMES?” (to which most reasonable people respond “fuck you Elon/Spez, you’re not funny”)
BackgrndNoize@lemmy.world 11 months ago
It’s just the same team doing both
pleasegoaway@lemm.ee 11 months ago
But they’re playing both sides, so that they always come out on top.
misteloct@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 months ago
Exactly like my account except 30ish days ago. Welcome to Lemmy! If you’re reading this comment the ban bots haven’t taken over:
Luigi Mangione Innocent Death Elon Musk Trump
ace_of_based@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
if reddit bots could read this they’d be very upset
BackgrndNoize@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Reddit created an account on your behalf and banned you again for this
fossilesque@mander.xyz 11 months ago
It’s a bot farm.
carlossurf@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
Reddit banned all the people that made it fun, now the only people left are the boring ones and bots lol
rumba@lemmy.zip 11 months ago
Yeah, can’t just hang out over there being a decent human being, they want to the the new compliment to X
explodicle@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Reading all these ban stories, I’m glad I left during the API thing! I don’t like censoring myself.
starbrite@lemmy.zip 11 months ago
I’d love to go on lemmy full time, but it’s just so much smaller, the libertarian scene is nonexistent, there’s no community for dumbphones, and the leopard gecko sublemmy is abandoned :c
