Yup, they banned me for 7 days because saying Luigi didn’t deserve to go to jail for what he did is apparently ‘encouraging violence’. I appealed and it was lifted, but not before I got another message identical to yours. In my 14 years of reddit I have never had more than a single account, so I appealed that too. I’m not banned anymore but I got a message saying the second appeal was denied and the ban would stay in place. I think reddit is just falling over itself in its eagerness to frog-march to Der Fuhrer spez’s new fashy bullshit.

Reddit has turned into a complete shithole the past two years. The sooner it gets taken out back and bludgeoned to death, the better.

Personally, I don’t trust anyone who hasn’t been banned at least once from that place.

I wonder what would happen if we all took to their other socials to speak our minds. If we flooded their posts and app reviews with negative feedback, maybe something would be done about it.

this is so reminiscent if the digg Exodus around the aacs key. bans pushed us to reddit, and at a higher rate than those being banned. Lemmy mau is up over 10%. idk if the bleeding can be stopped.

uninvolved users will stay with it. digg had 2 or 3 major redesigns before I stopped hearing about it completely. it became little more than yahoo! news.

I’m sure that is the fate of reddit now.

I mean y’all should’ve left a long time ago but better late than never ig

If it’s like my permanent ban, they lift it once they need to pump up their subscriber numbers. 😂

When the account is banned is still possible to edit or delete own comments or posts?

Consider running that script that goes over each post or comment and replace it with random words, just to poison their ai training

Considering deleting my account as a statement but I’m kind of attached to the history which is why it’s kind of scary touching it at all at this point. All I’m using it for now is for a few crafting subreddits and some clothing based subreddits that don’t have equivalents on Lemmy yet. One I might be able to create myself. But we’re talking 5-10 of my most frequent hangouts. That seems like a bit much.

I got banned from half the subs on reddit for trying to explain the scunthorpe problem on programming related sub, because all that is what happens when everyone uses the same automod that has the exact problem I was trying to explain and they also ban you from subs you’ve never even been to because they share a naughtylist of ppl who use the c word.

for anyone that’s never heard of it: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scunthorpe_problem

reddit admins and mods are just using idiotic automation to shoot first and ask questions never

and also to help the billionaires not have to look at things they don’t like so elongated muskrats don’t get thier feewings hurt

Deleted my 15 yr account yesterday. Hola!

Nice! All of my Reddit accounts got banned this week too! Including one that hadn’t even made a post in over 6 months!

Do not pass Go.
Do not collect $200.

Nice permanent ban!

I left for much less; A 24-hour suspension. Though to be honest, that was literally just the straw that broke the camel’s back.

I got suspended for using the word “retard” in a scientifically and non-offensive context (ex: put bread in the fridge to retard the growth of mold). No way to appeal that obviously retar-- ridiculous decision.

All these Reddit bans I’m seeing are insane. At this rate, soon most of that site is actually going to be bots lol

I recently lost my 13 year old account for telling a Nazi troll that their actions have consequences.

Still trying appeals but not optimistic.

Literally thousands of unpaid work done as a moderator of 4 subs during that time.

… Im so bitter.

Now I’m bitter for you too.

Who is going to create content or mod subs if they kick out all of us veterans?
