I mean, if you want more than three people to see the post...

Its 2026, there are only three types of people left on xitter. Pedophiles, white supremists and people from the isle of moro.

C’mon, is it news? Isn’t that the reason we’re all here?

Here’s my story on Medium about my journey from Reddit, to X, to Substack! Like and subscribe guys!

I’m new to this, is substack not the place to be for writers?

My ~19 year old account was permabanned after three strikes that involved two upvotes of Luigi pictures and then— after seeing a vid of Trump falling asleep— saying he shouldn’t wake up.

Then my alt got a warning for “disparaging communities” after I said one of the two PDX subreddits started so they could talk shit about houseless people, which is a fact.

Three of those were flagged by AI, the last one— the warning— was a person flagging it and couldn’t be contested.

It’s gone to the dogs.

Mine came from simply saying that a drone would probably take care of a Russian solder seen in a video on crutches heading toward the front lines in Ukraine. Literally just that. Not saying it with any joy or approval, just a statement of fact. Phrased pretty damn much like I said it in this comment here.

I keep hearing stuff like this, makes me wonder if they are even honestly getting those moderations wrong, or if they are pretending to get it wrong to ban you for other reasons. My violations were often in bad faith for other reasons that I got violated for I believe. Did you get into any arguments with like Influence agents for a powerful group? Ie Israel but not limited to.

He might not be morally good, but what Reddit is doing here is illegal in many places.

wut

Unless the article is absolutely lying, it mentioned the subreddits wanted the posts and couldn't overcome the sitewide ban (i.e. manually approving the content). Your comment is a really huge stretch there.

I wonder if this admin was named maxwellhill.

Sound more like you learned the hard way what "abusing the system" mean.

Ok but that’s fucking hilarious. Wish I’d thought of it first.

I care if reddit is dishonestly enforcing rules to force people to buy ads. That's good for us actually. If only we had more enlightened instances with more functionality.

Niche communities don’t turn on a dime to a new platform. He’s on Twitter because his audience is on Twitter.

I wish they'd sunset this shit

It's corporate speak, imo.

I hate it too.

They also like to call everything "assets." Not a "picture" or an "image" or a "decoration" or a million other descriptive words. It's all "assets." When the corporates talk like that they are emphasizing ownership and profitabiliy. "Put that money-making thing we own there." "Lisa, which folder did you put that money-making thing we own in?"

🤢

It's actually a proper term in current marketing parlance. You can find it in glossaries in AppsFlyer, Adjust, and any of dozens of other digital marketing applications.

Ad spend is the amount of money a marketing team spends on digital and traditional advertising campaigns.

In the OP this differentiates it from a fine or paid feature. They're are literally requiring them to buy advertising to allow them to post in an open forum.

Dude needs to go play in traffic.

Remember when users used to flood reddit subs to find support, real opinions, express dissatisfaction, criticize bad feature/products, and warn others?

Now, the people who complain get flooded by astroturfing bots run by marketing agencies to say they're holding it wrong, not important enough, doing something wrong while praising corporation overtaking governments.

Now that Google has partnered with reddit, they get to have many searches sending troves of people there expecting solutions or like minded people or community support.

So, yea there are still people.

It's a form of rainbow capitalism.

Or one organic dildo trying to fight a mega-dragon-dildo 10 times its size.

Lemmy good

I think it's the name for one of those weird sex moves.

It's a clone of Digg which was a clone of forums, and it's full of ads and bots. It's the trashcan of the internet. I don't know why people still lurk there.
