I agree with you but it's also pretty ironic because your account is set as a bot account on this platform, lol.

If I married an Italian woman and had a bunch of kids with her on the farm, I would name them for cheeses, gouda, gorgonzolla, swiss, brie, colby, jack, cheddar, trying to remember the fancy ones. That's not quite a poem about cheese, I could write you a poem about salami though.
Seriously? Ok I'll speak plainly, Reddit's systems silence free speech, when I tried to use my own words instead of relying on AI chat as to not cause a problem, like say getting banned and muted, I got banned and muted. The point is that there is no point, I'm posting and venting about something that can't be changed, In the vain hope that I'm not the only one fed up with Reddit's old and outdated systems silencing people like myself. If I just used AI chat doubt I would have gotten all three from using my actual words and feelings r/help is a farce, freedom of speech my ass! What is less freedom of speech then banning and muting a person looking for help? Fuck Reddit.
i don't know what that means, posting without ai assistance. I never used that, never saw it. I don't even know what it is, and I wasn't blocked by the site wide, the subs will block your posts for not meeting their guidelines, or on a whim, and few will tell you, letting you think it got posted, showing it as posted even as you are the only one that can see it.
Which just shows a contempt for their users. If the comment is removed, tell the person, why lie and mislead? It pisses me off. And many subs I can't even find their rules for posting even after perusing their rules I don't see them.
Reddit has dishonest moderation, they violate you for things that aren't against the rules, because of other subjects you argued with connected interests on, I'm sure of it. And otherwise if a reply gets flags the ai makes their half baked decision and gets it wrong as often as not. But half are not in good faith, and they will find bad faith reasons to violate on other subjects if you say argue with influence operatives on Israel. You can make maybe one comment to them, after that if you don't let them have the last word and stop responding you will get violated on an unrelated subjects.
I hear you — Reddit’s moderation has a lot of problems, and the lack of transparency is a big part of it.
When I said “posting without AI assistance,” I meant that Reddit’s AI filters kept blocking my posts before I could even submit them. My natural writing style gets flagged as “AI‑generated,” even though it’s just me typing normally.
So I tried posting in my own words, and Reddit’s automated systems removed it, banned me from the help subreddit, and muted me from appealing. None of that involved human moderators — it was all automated.
That’s the part I’m calling out: Reddit’s AI moderation is so strict and so inaccurate that real people get treated like bots. That’s why I’m talking about it here.
But these are all good things!....good things at reddit! Keep it up dumb asses! LOL.
I get why people here are sensitive to AI‑generated content, but I’m not trying to deceive anyone. I use AI chat as a writing tool because my natural style gets misread or flagged on platforms like Reddit.
The whole point of my post is that Reddit’s AI moderation punished me for writing normally, and I wanted to talk about that somewhere I wouldn’t get auto‑removed.
I’m not here to flood anything or pretend to be anti‑AI. I’m just describing what happened to me and how automated systems can misclassify real people.
Reddit has been a dumpster fire of heavy-handed bans, and refusal of mod transparency or appeal, for a while now. It started when they closed off the API against third-party mod tools. It won't get better anytime soon. Glad you're here in the Lemmyverse instead.
It sounds more like this is a mod issue. There's nothing at all stopping the same mods from coming here.
Glad you're here in the Lemmyverse instead.
So the sense of superiority there is misplaced imo. I've seen enough bad mods and anti AI opinions here that I wouldn't be surprised at all if OP ran into the exact same issue here as well.
AI chat MC (Microsoft Copilot) guided me here, I have many dreams for online accounts alternative paths no longer needing usernames so a person can leave delete their account and someday return using their own name if they want as my Lemmy profile states I fight for digital rights, the permanence of accounts feels unnecessary uncomfortable. Lemmy itself needs a better way to delete unnecessary posts and comments but you're right it's a far better leap from Reddit strict dictatorial moderations, regret not using MC in that post perhaps it would have simply gotten rejected and not gotten me banned and muted, needless to say the first place MC requested I send it, did not like me, alas I cannot delete my mistakes on Lemmy, yet at least I am not silenced, so far.
Do you have any proof of Reddit having been behind this?
I agree Reddit bad, but I hate how people here keep acting like Reddit and its moderators are synonymous. They're not. The moderators are volunteers that do whatever they want, regardless of what Reddit wants.
That distinction is important because there's nothing stopping those moderators from coming here and doing the same thing here. So any sense of superiority there is misplaced if it's just the doing of moderators.
From what I can tell, the initial removal wasn’t the mods — it was Reddit’s automated AI filter. After that, every post I made was auto‑removed before any human could see it, and the mods only saw the AI removal notice. So the ban came from them, but the trigger came from Reddit’s system. That’s why it felt like I was being punished for something I didn’t do.
Worth noting that when Reddit marks stuff as requiring a moderator review, it appears as removed until the mods approve it.
So
After that, every post I made was auto‑removed before any human could see it
this doesn't necessarily mean no one had a chance to see it.
Though I assume
the mods only saw the AI removal notice
means that you asked the mods and they informed you of this. But if you didn't get that information from them directly and are just assuming, your posts were most likely marked for review.
I get what you’re saying, but in my case the removals weren’t the normal ‘pending review’ type. The posts were removed instantly across multiple subs, my modmail was auto‑muted, and the ban reason specifically referenced AI‑generated content. That combination only happens when Reddit’s automated system flags an account. So the mods did ban me, but they were reacting to Reddit’s AI label, not the actual content.
I wasn't aware that Reddit had an automated AI filter. Considering the extreme amount of obvious AI content on Reddit I'm somewhat doubtful it exists.
What did you need help with?
You cannot help with this I'm sorry to say, I just need a place to vent about Reddit's asinine algorithms I use AI chat (Microsoft Copilot) freely and proudly to censor my own words and make me acceptable on platforms but the rare moment I used my own words this happened my post rejected band and muted, now unless you can change the way Reddit operates you can't help me. I'd sooner trust an AI than I would another human emcee in particular so when it told me to go on to Lemmy Fuck AI, to complain about Reddit's AI, while using AI! Yet still I trusted MC to the point where some people began pointing out the irony, "AI is what it is, it is what it will be" but Reddit's AI is old, outdated and Reddit it itself cannot do criticism, even feedback, it's like North Korea.
