are you permanently banned off reddit? or do you just like lemmy more?
-
Same here, reporting trolls and bots of right wingers, bam temp ban for report abuse. And then all my accounts except one got Nuked in February 13, finally after a comment removal from a game sub, because the mod thought my comment wasn't going along with the joke)meme of the thread, instant shadowban. After going on the shadowban sub to report my shadowban. I noticed a lot of people like me were shadow banned for no reason at all. Some were getting instantly banned for creating an account

Their app is actually more intrusive, apparently ban wise it would be easier to identify you try other evasion methods that can't be detected easily.
-
Nowadays, everybody wanna talk like they got somethin' to say
But nothin' comes out when they move their lips
Just a bunch of gibberishAnd motherfuckers act like they forgot about beans
-
They have been banning inactive accounts, apparently some were getting hacked by trolls
-
When reddit went public, and now they want a buyer, they are banning as much accounts as possible to look good to investors, they dint care if the bans were legitimate or not.
-
I heard on modhelp, how they were salivating over the indiscriminate banning of the filters
-
What did the karma coins actually do? Never understood that part of Reddit.
-
I did that with alternate location and ip, before the pandemic. Now that I don't, I received so much more bans than beforem
-
If you create multiple accounts they will shadowban you even. More. The best is to wait a while before creating a new one, use different devices, browsers if possible a different IP ,like a cafe or library. The more they catch, you the easier they can ban your newly created accounts faster

It's definitely gearing towards right wing alot. Especially with how many of them are pushing pro Russian talking points.
-
reddit was better simply because it has more people. but it's unusable without api access and alternative apps.
-
I deleted my own Reddit accounts after They started censoring posts and subreddits.
There was all too many fuckups in the last few years.
- The API scandal
- The wallstreetbets scandal
- Spez and Fuck Reddit
- the Antiwork community scandal
- the Luigi censorship LGBT and EDI
They have no control of that platform their hands are tied. They are sold.

No, I had a reddit account in good standing that was around a decade old, I switched to Lemmy when it became clear that Reddit was being run by the regressive conservative tech world, eventually I also deleted my reddit account as part of a purge of my online identity.
-
If you are on Android, there are ways around the API thing. I was able to get my favorite Reddit app, RiF (Reddit is Fun) to continue to work after they took away API access.

Can be used with various Apps as it patches them -
Perma banned from Reddit cause I compared Clarence Thomas to Stephen Candie from Django Unchained.

Still on both but I'm not actively going on Reddit anymore. Only when Lemmy World can't be reached by my Sync app (which has usually more to do with my connection than Lemmy) or when I click links from people. I've refrained from commenting there anymore and will likely wipe it soon enough, after I get around to wiping my Meta posts (can't delete my whole account since I have friends and family still using it, but I definitely want to "hollow it out" if that makes sense).

I had an account on reddit, about five years old until I finally decided to leave it because i spend an ungodly amount of time there. Knowing myself and my habit to flake on self set goals I thought out the ultimate strategy to keep me from coming back: Over a couple of weeks I intentionally posted atrocious stuff on my main and my two alt-accounts to get me permabanned and burn every single bridge.
For now it has successfully stopped me from wasting time there any longer.
