are you permanently banned off reddit? or do you just like lemmy more?
-
I think so? I used to browse the site over breakfast, and one morning, Apollo couldn't connect. I don't want to cause trouble by trying to log in, if I'm banned, so I have not tried to log in another way.

RedReader is an option.

I am banned from worldnews because I called Israel an ethno-centric kapo state.
-
Yes I'm permanently fingerprint/IP banned.
I posted anti-Isreal confrontational comments one of the largest default subreddits, which perma banned me. Whenever I browsed through the front page and commented in that subreddit on my other accounts because I forgot I was banned, all of my accounts were banned for ban evasion. This happened twice and then I was perma-ed.
For context I used the site regularly since Digg without much issue
-
I just prefer Lemmy. I started exploring Lemmy about 6 months before the API fiasco. The content on Lemmy has just kept improving since.
-
Found Lemmy during the API protest and ditched reddit. I've been meaning to go back to reddit and get banned over the whole crazy censorship thing, but haven't gotten around to it yet.

Modified boost too.
-
Those are valid critiques, i am just having a hard time figuring out the solution.

When Reddit changed the layout (new/old) some ten years ago, I started using a 3rd party app, because "new reddit" was everything that I hated about other sites.
I stopped using it when they killed 3rd party apps, but that was really just the final nail in the coffin anyway. It was rotten to the core long before that. -
Both of those facts can exist at the same time.
I believe I am partly banned from some Subs if only because I disagreed with the Reddit Hivemind and the Mods crazy power trips.Lemmy is 1000% more open minded.
-
Technically I’m still on it. I just stopped interacting there. Might post on some of the niche crafting subreddits sometimes in the future because I miss those on here. For everything else Lemmy is far superior. Decided to “switch over” when I found out that half of my comments and posts got shadowbanned.
-
I'm permanently banned from Reddit. I don't like Lemmy nearly as much, but it's probably just that I'm less familiar and haven't figured it all out. Finding subs that I liked in Reddit was much easier, but there's the obvious issue with Reddit - mainly that I'm banned.
-
I just like lemmy more. I still visit reddit irregularly, like every few days.
-
I don't get the problem with being banned. I used to create a new reddit account when I thought of a new username I liked. DGAF about karma so I just threw accounts away. On one occasion I did get banned and just created a new account, no big deal. If you want to go back just go back.
-
Yeah I still use Old Reddit when I go there.
-
Dito, still have RIF installed on my phone so every time I click a reddit link im reminded of what they did with a 403: forbidden error. I like it better over here anyway, nicer people who give a shit and fewer bots (or atleast fewer obvious ones).
-
I find it super funny honestly, because I left Reddit because of shit moderation and a gross bias toward liberal posts in the moderation (ironic now). Then I come here to escape, which I'm realizing is a very liberal a platform, and I'm noticing that it wasn't that it was leftist leaning, the people were just insufferable.
I routinely find things in common with people across the aisle here and the content is way more objective.
I never got perma banned, but I was silenced enough to know that it wasn't good for my mental health to stay. Lemmy is great. I think this is a platform where people can actually just meet in the middle and talk. I got banned from Mastadon on my first day, so it was a no go.
But banana bread, at fucking work bro? HELL. YEAH.
