i need to know
You can get banned on Reddit? I thought you can only get banned by those sweaty mods.
No, yes
I nuked my own accounts. Fuck reddit.
I liked Reddit but I couldn’t ignore what’s happening there anymore. Anyway Lemmy is cool too, not missing it that much.
I got a perma ban from reddit. Ive said this in other comments but I’ll add it here: A mod locked a post I was looking at and said something about how the post wasn’t good (I can’t remember exactly what the mod said). I responded by telling to the mod “get lost”. I got perma banned from that subreddit. Then like 5 months later I smoked some weed and, for whatever reason, felt the need to message the mod and say “spank spank spank. Thats the sound I make as I spank you. Yes yes yes. Thats the sound you make as I spank you”. Thats when I got a phat perma ban from the admins. I made another reddit account on a vpn. All seemed well until I launched reddit with the vpn off by accident. My new account was banned shortly after this. Either way, after the first ban I was looking at alternatives. I found the lemmsters. I still have the reddit app with my perma banned account. I can browse reddit all I want but I don’t use it for anything other than porn or when I google something and a reddit link pops up where my question is being answered. There are things I miss about reddit. Primarily I miss the large chess community there. It is far more developed than the chess community on lemmy. I wish I could get the chess community going here. I don’t really miss reddit for anything else. This is evident by the fact that I could’ve been on reddit right now, but instead I prefer to browse lemmy. I really like the fediverse idea. It interests me greatly and I hope to see it grow! One thing that is exciting that I missed out on with reddit is being there from the beginning. I know lemmy/fediverse is newer so I am happy to join during the more early stages and see how the fediverse as a whole grows.
I just like Lemmy more
Never used reddit
I left when RIF was disabled, 2 years ago now or close
After spending some time on Lemmy, I have a feeling that if I were to say anything is get banned. I made a meme of that screaming seagull saying, “Luigi!!!” That I want to post from my main. I just can’t bring myself to go back. It seems pointless.
My main and all my alts except one was banned cause I kept reporting blatant ads disguised as legitimate posts as spam. Happened around the same time they killed off 3rd party apps, so I needed a good excuse to try Lemmy anyway.
Both
Permanently banned for asking a really stupid question. I was having a big self-hate episode, and asked the question to affirm that I deserve something.
I just use both. I don’t like what Reddit as a company is doing, but they have a larger amount of content
just left and haven’t looked back, I’m not using the stupid default reddit app
Both
