Yo, this place is dope, fuck reddit

Welcome internet stranger, you made the right choice.

As am I. Apparently the Zionists subreddit mods don't like it when you compare Israeli propaganda to Nazi propaganda.

What got you banned? I said mean things about Elon Musk.

Reddit really testing the limits of Dead Internet Theory

Me posting dispelling obvious Israeli propaganda on any subreddit. Exhausting.

Reddit is going crazy with the bans. A perma ban can result from something as simple as saying something like "I hope the consequences of not vaccinating are more deeply suffered by anti-vaxxers than by people who are not vaxxed from an allergy or something". After all, that constitutes "hoping for violence/death".

Someone wished Trump would die of disease (and didn't get banned), I wish him a long life and lots of suffering from disease so reddit banned me for advocating for violence (they'd been targeting me)

I got banned for telling a legit Nazi to fuck himself up the ass with a cactus, no lube.

Banned for threatening violence and hate speech apparently.

What did you say?

I got perm banned for saying on a post about Nazis in South Dakota gathered on the Capitol steps, I said I was in the mood to punch some Nazis in the face. Reddit can suck it.

Reddit is a full blown Nazi sympathizing shithole at this point. Good riddance.

I got banned for calling an antivaxxer a waste of oxygen :3

Yeah, of course... spez hates discussion of supposedly committing violence by anyone from center to left.

It does not help that they're using AI-assisted profiling, information used by both mods and site admins to determine the number of strikes to ban users.

It’s always good to keep your options open. The fediverse has set up guardrails to prevent things from happening here that have already happened out there but anything can fail. I myself have an account on ramble if shit goes bad here. Always have an escape route. Have no loyalty, that will be abused.

I can’t believe they banned me for what they banned me for too. After 16 years on the platform. Fuck em

And in the end it wasn't even really anything I said as much as the autoflag got my ass for posting on a temp account in a sub that banned my main account. Caught a perma ban for all my accounts with that shit.

All because I originally said I hoped Elon overd*sed. (don't wanna be banned from here too so censor it is.) They're especially sensitive to that one in the Vancouver subreddit I guess for obvious reasons if you know about Vancouver.

I got a temp ban from reddit. Not cool enough, apparently.

You might wanna try out the sorting "scaled" when browsing "all" to find new communities (or check out every c/newcommunity that interests you)

But warning: scaled in all can have a lot of porn if you have nsfw on

I write some bad word about Andrew tate House and get all my accounts band in one day . Fuck Reddit

You don't even need to say something, just become a "security risk" to them by using uBlock Origin to block their trackers. In other words, how I personally got banned. Anyway, welcome to Lemmy!

Welcome in! Enjoy your stay.

All I'll say is that Lemmy is smaller than Reddit, so naturally a lot of convos default to politics and tech.

Because of that though, you'll be exposed to potentially new ideas regarding both. So be open minded! But also know that you can block users, communities, and instances if you find them unbearable.

Cheers

How do you guys even get banned? I'm straight up posting AI-generated suicide instructions nowadays, and I get more engagement and less shadow removals than I had before.

My bans came from me saying that Israel is committing genocide and that Netenyahu needs to be tried and hanged for his crimes.

Lost track of my reddit bans. Really lost track of my subreddit bans. I really stacked them up late 2023.

Fuck reddit. Zionist fascsist infested shithole

Me too. I commented on a post about a shooting and sarcastically asked how folks were going to blame it on trans people this time. Permabanned!

Welcome to the family! There are literally 10s of us!

I got banned in a subreddit because I said FB dude got a penis transplant from a rat

The "one thing" he said:

Edit: Kinda funny how He's flipping the bird backwards here though.

Maybe it's just me, but no matter what the ban was for (I'm very aware Reddit is going ban-crazy and has just been shit in general,) I feel it's a bad omen that one community (connected communities, fediverse, what have you) is being largely inhabited by people banned from other communities.

Welcome brother! Or sister... Or non-binary memelord... Uwu....

The censorship has gone mad on Reddit. I was a user there before the whole Digg migration, and it's been such a wonderful ride. It had to end at some point, though.

I'm just at a point where it's genuinely impossible to have a conversation there without having your comments removed, the thread locked, or downvoted to oblivion for not joining in to whatever the masses are yapping about.

Less of a town square and more of a mob of idiots surrounded by bots.

This place:

"I hate you and your dumb. Yay, my opinion is finally seen!"

I’ve been banned from a community on here before because I’m sure someone misread my comment.

My comment was clearly aligned with everyone else on the post, but I still got banned and mods did not respond to my messages about getting unbanned.

What was the reason though? Personally I never used Reddit. So I don't know about them

mfw people think lemmy is a free safe space until they discover the biggest instance admins are mostly intolerant, impulsive manchilds UwU

I have only one account left on reddit 😕

Yeah it's gotten bad on reddit

fake reports on your profile which reddit just won't check if they make sense:

It is the way; welcome

I actually enjoy the experience of Reddit more after having been banned.

Lemmy is fine. We just need more users for content.

I was banned for a while, saying that NATO countries should declare war on Russia and kill Putin. That was a political news Reddit, and the topic was about Russia's Shadow Fleets and sabotage operations. War, the consideration and advocation, is an inherently political thing.

Reddit would say that Churchill wanting to fight Nazi Germany is advocating for violence. While technically true, it misses the fact that sometimes words cannot broker peace nor civility.

I have so many bans on Reddit.

I was banned from r/soapmaking for saying that people who buy soap made by other people, melt it, add perfume and trinkets, and pour it into moulds aren't making soap, they're doing arts and crafts. I raise the pigs, render the fat to make lard, and do the chemistry to turn it into soap. I make soap.

I was banned from r/canada for wondering if Danielle Smith was going to pay the lunatic street preecher charged with violating Covid restrictions a conjugal visit, after she made a fawning phone call to him while he was on trial, when he was convicted and sentenced to jail.

I was banned from r/Conservative for pointing out that the headlines that said that the DOJ had found massive voter fraud in Georgia was actually written by a Trump political appointee and contradicted the DOJ, the Republican Attorney General of the United States, the Republican Attorney General of Georgia, the Republican Secretary of State of Georgia, and Republican election officials from Georgia.

I was banned from the Freedom Convoy sub for asking which constitutional rights had been taken away since the protesters had exercised their Section 2 rights to assemble, their Section 6 rights to cross interprovincial borders freely and that they were free to leave Canada if they could find any country that would take them and free to return if they quarantined, and that since none of them were vaccinated they had obviously exercised their Section 8 right not to receive the vaccine.

Never, ever speak truth into an echo bunker.

It's not really that much better here. People jumping the gun constantly.
