    Not surprising seeing as theyve also been unjustly banning people again. Just got booted off the site today and was given zero explanation besides I “incited violence.” The link to the supposed “violation” didnt work then when I asked in my appeal they wouldnt tell me anything. Im left to assume its because my politics didnt agree with the current regime.

      Musk has been pressuring them to go after critics of him, and the administration, and Reddit is capitulating. Cowards.

      I suspect it is because they want to buy TikTok, and they know HitlerPig will award it based on appeasement and the bribe.

        It’ll be funny to watch them start lifting those bans when they realize bending the knee to fascists isn’t gonna save the site. Oh well. They’ve shown their true colors as a platform.

          I’ve wondered if that will happen once they realize they’ve chased off so many core members.

          I’m not sure I’d return. I like the higher volume of posts on Reddit, especially in niche subs, but i don’t miss the bots, trolls, puns, novelty accounts, Russian karma farmers, etc.

            I was sign up number 3 the day they added accounts. I made I think one of the 1st hundred comments ever. I’ll never go back for any reason. The place is a joke, and what people keep going back for are the memories of what it was, not what it is.

            I don’t think i would. There would have to be mass firings and a complete restructuring of the company for me to consider that.
