I hope I’m not the only one in here who nuked my Reddit account voluntarily after they started ramping up censorship.
Basically, I saw what was coming and bailed off that site while I was still ahead.
Welcome to the club!!!
And nothing of value was lost
Uh oh, did you suggest something that isn’t aligned with corporate status quo enforcement?
I still haven’t been told I’ve been officially banned, they just give me server errors all the time (only on my main account, not when going on any other account/incogni)
Maybe you got shadowbanned?
Apparently
Maybe they managed to corrupt your data.
“Whoops! We accidently corrupted your data and didn’t have any alerts setup for when this happens hihi”
I wouldn’t be surprised tbh
You can check if your shadow banned by looking at your profile while not logged in. If it says suspended or can’t find your profile, you were banned
Damn, reddit do be shadow banning
yea, if your on a pc it will say “profile not found”
Exact reason why I’m here lol.
Reddit used to be good enough to get people to post daily without cajoling
There it is. Their chatbots need more training data and reinforcement feedback.
Welcome, don’t step in the Tankies on your way in.
Why do we keep those near the front door, anyway?
we keep moving them but when their toilets clog and overflow building mgmt moves them back.
They offered to build the front door for free and now that it’s done it’s difficult to convince people to come in through a different door.
Actually, please do step on them, they might finally wanna leave
They might like it
Historically they love it when people get run over, especially by tanks.
Yeah they just don’t like it if it’s them being the runner over, it’s a fairly common opinion
I just got banned myself for calling a moderator woke. F reddit
Was that ironic usage of the word or did you just out yourself on your first day?
Needs more context. Calling someone woke because you know it will piss them off I think is fair usage.
Anyone who gets that upset about being called woke probably isn’t that great either.
I may have
Woke is a compliment, though
Dang, I called one an autistic dork and only got 3 days. Nothing against autistic people. I’m something of an autistic myself. I just knew it would trigger him. Then I mocked him in the unban request too for being a “thin-skinned bitch.”
I’ve also said “I fully endorse Luigi and his slaughter of CEOs.”
Why is it so hard for me to get my permaban?
You have to be nice to someone they don’t like.
Doesn’t sound great for you…
You sound like a conservative that doesn’t know what your talking about, if it’s based on sarcasm, but if it’s based on bigotry, you had no place in reddit as surely in other forums. Nobody likes a obnoxious loudmouth
Agreed. It was mostly based on frustration on how the littlest comment now on Reddit gets you banned. My mistake for getting hot headed and calling him a name.
that Reddit mod
If you’re not a russian orc troll, you’re not welcome on reddit these days.
I canceled my reddit pro, or reddit+ account, whatever the f*ck it is called, and the ads, the ads… Ads that look like posts, or comments. It’s almost making me 100% Lemmy too.
I kinda miss the ads with comments enabled but not to the point where I’d consider going back 😅
Someone should start Blueit. See cuz they blew it, get it?
Top tier pun
Just awful, but I thought it was right there, you know?
Im sure the Democratic party use it to replace their old fundraising site ActBlue.
Which is also onomatopoeic. And literal.
Yep that’s why I’m here. They banned my 12 year account for sympathizing with Luigi.
You can’t even play Nintendo these days
Reddit simply doesn’t want an active user base. They want passive viewers ingesting AI generated content. Much better for advertising revenue that way.
they have been culling via shadowbanning for a month now, much more aggressively like with the ban purgews. they following FB model, which is AI generated rw content.
they have been culling via shadowbanning for a month now
Way more than months. This goes at least as far back as the 2016 kerfuffle over The_Donald, ChapoTrapHouse, and other increasingly popular outside-the-mainstream communities.
Honestly easier to trace it back to 2012, when Reddit was gaining popular steam and doing lots of high profile AMAs. Shadowbanning was a great way to quash the mix of spam accounts and hecklers without letting the people running the accounts know they needed to roll up new ones.
but it drastically increased last month, even compared to feb with all the site wide bans, shadowbans are more silent, so people dont notice it right away, reddit does this intentionally because they like being sneaky and tip people off.
and yes starting 2017 on, thats where i recieved my 1st ban ever on a sub, before that there was no problems talking about politics without getting censured. but i noticed they are going to lowest hanging fruit, rather than the high profile spammers, because they usually know the instant they get shadowbanned anyways.
Soon a rebrand to Redbot.com
We’re Gooigi gang here. So watch yourself.
Just got 7 day ban for wishing that Elon musk poof out of existance. Fuck Reddit, and fuck the tyrannical Reddit admins.
Told another user to take Trump’s advice and drink bleach. He’s allowed to say it but apparently not me.
Whatever. Reddit has always been a barely redeemable corpo platform. I’m hoping Digg comes back ActivityPub compliant like Threads and puts the final nail in that shithole’s corpse box.
