Lol nothing says we are afraid of the working class like banning subreddits on suppressed news they don’t want us to see. I came here bc I got a warning on my account for liking a comment that said “Luigi”. My alt account got banned for sharing the DOGE email list that is public info. Fuck Reddit. I’m done.
Just got my ban for saying how Luigi is my favorite super marios brother. Like on the racing ones, how accurate he can dome someone with a turtle shell. And he is insanely fast. Like dude can go from one side of the map to the other in speeds unexplainable.
They banned me for violent comments.
I appealed with a ‘eat shit, DDD Spez’
Truly mind boggling to see how very little a site that once called itself “The Frontpage of the Internet”, seems to understand the internet
I just got my 3 day ban under bullshit reasons. Reddit is now a place of tyranny and fascism.
I can say h1 visas are bad for americans here and not get banned for a week wild
I got a 6 day ban from reddit for saying Kevin OLeary is a traitor to Canada.
Yeah, I got a 7-day ban for ‘encouraging violence’, when all I said was that Luigi didn’t deserve to go to jail for what he did. I appealed, my account was restored, but not before being (as of now, I literally just noticed this) permanently-banned for ‘multiple, repeated violations of Reddit’s Content Policy on your other account(s).’ I have had only one account on Reddit for 14 years, I don’t even make throwaways, so it seems like they’re really scraping for excuses. What’s hilarious is that my account was reinstated 3 hours ago from the appeal for teh temp-ban, but the perma-ban came 11 hours ago, so they perma-banned me then lifted the temp-ban. Thanks, guys. :P I’m going to appeal it just to see what their response is, but fuck 'em.
My account got banned for saying Erdogan was a Muslim terrorist. Turkey’s long arm of the law.
I got permanently banned off Reddit during the whole Luigi thing, I didn’t say anything bad I just supported what he did, next thing I know I’m banned
Its pretty preposterous to be banned for saying “kill all Nazi’s but six” on a site where the CEO used to moderate r/jailbait and the literally racist eugenics loving subreddits r/spacedicks and r/the_donald used to exist.
WHY DO YOU THINK WE SUPRESSED IT IN THE FIRST PLACE???
Lol think its funny how many ppl make the instance signup mistake I made, they fail the captcha by not reading it forced to not be able to use their username on their first instance of choice, we really need an option for captcha retrys
Oh, that’s funny
Reddit is compromised.
I’m done as well. Fuck them.
Man the censorship is just vile too. It’s not like “Oh this incites violence” it’s “anything and everything that we and our shareholders don’t agree on is gone”.
Worst part is if any other countries went after them then they would just restrict it to US news.
Classic capitalist gotcha. Turns out that prioritizing shareholders (a 3rd party leech entity unrelated to the operations or customers) is always going to lead to censorship. Like the generic “shareholder” needs stable status quo to figure out how to exploit the poors in most efficient way and violent revolt doesn’t guarantee a higher than inflation result. Modern capitalism in America is straight up a mental disorder similar to hoarding. You don’t need the money nor the stock but you’re willing to fuck over literally thousands of people for a minor gain. It should be studied … but studying this doesn’t help the bottom line so fuck any progress it’s death and destruction for %% daily return. Fuck all this
They are Streisand effecting the information though because the more they censor, the more people will talk about it. There’s already been a news article published by The Verge. It’s going to backfire so badly lmao.
Seeing that non-right sided medias are picking this up is good. Hopefully it builds more traction and if they can even say something as simple as “Lemmy is an alternative” we can see healthy growth. I know r/conservative is probably loving it but in the last month I’ve seen them advocate for more violence than any other subreddits. Yet they remain free and open. Gotta love how contradicting reddit has become since the blackout.
not contradicting at all if you consider them as part of the putin/musk propaganda apparatus
putins trolls control the sub, and the mods. not an accident why they are constantly on the front page all the time. and then theres the subs that “pretend to be both sides”
Hey they got me long ago but permanently banned IP address maybe? Tried new numbers, new emails, and glad after the last few days
Lol same. I’m finally starting to realize it wasn’t a me thing. I’ve really disliked the general flow of reddit for a while but it’s just such an easy thing to open up and scroll through. Didn’t know alternatives like this existed
they also looked for same device, browser fingerprinting, behaviour pattern, reddits banning filters is the most aggressive of any social media, and site.
Reddit has been compromised for a while now. 2016 opened them up. The API fiasco blew the door down. r/place exposed it and exploited Reddit for what it is. And we’re now seeing the new course of direction continue.
How did r/place expose anything?
Doesnt that kinda go against the whole point of r/place? Kinda fuckin stupid
Ok. Thanks.
Reddit is compromised.
Elders of Lemmy:
Make advertisers into bad words “hellofresh the rich” " squarespace the ceos"
I fucking love this and I’m stealing it
Reminds me of how RTGame censors the word ‘fuck’ with the word ‘Youtube’ on videos posted to Youtube
You’re youtubing kidding me.
This is, excuse me, fucking brilliant
I think you mean “Nintendo the CEOs”
they already banned “Luigi” so good luck discussing Nintendo games.
I saw someone say Lewie G. as a substitute
Harkens me back to ol’ GameFAQs days when my friend tried to get around spoiler rules by making an HeiressDyes alt… Fight the system!!
I just tried this out after wiping all my comments, let’s see if I get a ban
Mark Zuckerberg needs to be facebooked
After 12 years and over 900K Karma, I got permanently banned for repeating an opinion that I’ve posted many times over the past decade. Then Trump gets elected, and the exact same opinion gets me a permaban.
Now I’m hearing that they are banning people for UPVOTES! I wondered why Reddit had decided to throw in with the Nazis, and I this week I see in the news that Ohanion wants to buy TikTok. The new owner of TikTok will be personally chosen by HitlerPig, so Zuckerfuck has been kissing up, and now Ohanion wants in on it. HitlerPig will award it to whomever kisses his ass and pays him the most.
Reddit doesn’t want users participating in the site. They want eyes looking at ads and that’s it. Look, don’t touch. We’ve got bots for touching.
Lurkers are more lucrative than posters.
14 year old account for me. Mod of a million plus sub. 700k karma. Built fucking subreddits into real communities. Banned over a joke I made for a decade. Reddit is dying and we now have a new federated home.
That’s the problem with these corporations — the foundation is rotten, and they have no principles beyond more money. It has been this way for some time.
Now, we have an economy where the arbitrary whims of billionaires and our king is the main determinant of their share price. This is how Reddit kisses the boot.
They would exhume my grandmother if it increased share price by one tenth of one percent.
I’m here because I replied to “let’s not give them an inch” with “let’s give them 9mm” and was permanently banned from politics, no recourse. That’s the most left leaning sub on the website.
When they took API access away I was pissed but I stayed. But taking away my free speech, seriously? They can go fuck themselves.
I created my first Reddit account in over a decade and was shadowbanned almost immediately. I didn’t even get a chance to post a semi-“controversial” opinion! The site is total garbage these days.
ever since trumps first term, thier ban have been come very heavy handed against left leaning comments more so than right wingers, i pointed it out so many times over the years that this was happening. there was suspicion that r/politics was taken over by a right winger, that wanted to seem like both sides, its pretty obviously who was getting banned and what was getting posted.
Don’t leave us in suspense - what was the opinion?
Shit, they perma’d me for constantly agitating in non leftist subs… I can’t help it.
Now I’m hearing that they are banning people for UPVOTES!
Only upvotes involving Mario’s brother, so far. Presumably the “issue” being that he has too much support and the time between posting and it being moderated away it’s getting enough votes to still have significant visibility which is what they’re trying to avoid.
China’s not going to let tiktok fall out of their control. If it gets sold it will be to someone beholden to them.
Same here. Got Banned from r/WorldNews for talking about Luigi when that CEO incident happened. Perma-banned a day later.
What was the opinion that got you banned?
