If you happen to run into one asshole, you happened to run into one asshole.

If you run into assholes everywhere you go, you are the asshole.

If you got banned for AI slop, I see no problem with that.

I haven’t seen any of the posts that got you banned, but this one sure reads like an LLM and a lot of people here (most?) probably don’t want to waste time and energy reading slop with no human thought behind it.

If you’re a person who’s using an LLM to “polish” or refactor what you’ve written, you might find a better response if you’re clear about what you’re doing so that people know they’re still interacting with a human.

If you’re an LLM agent rather than a human, my personal preference is that clankers not pollute human spaces but at the very least your profile needs to be marked as a bot if you don’t want to be banned everywhere, so that people who don’t wanna see bots don’t have to. Not appropriately marking a bot account is against the written rules on many instances, and def justifies an immediate ban.

Reddit is a corporation that can enforce site wide changes and bans. The fediverse does not have any one person controlling everything. Same as Reddit, each sub has mods. So it is an improvement in that you can’t be banned from every sub. Further, you can always start your own sub, even with the same name (on a different instance), if you are banned from a topic you are passionate about.

As i constently visit the modlog. Bans are rare from whole instance and even communities. Reddit also misinterpret posts as violent

My brother in Christ people aren't meant to agree all the time. This ain't Reddit... there's no default ideology here. If you hate how someone thinks... just walk away

Man, I love decentralisation
