are you permanently banned off reddit? or do you just like lemmy more?

[frightful_hobgoblin@lemmy.ml]

Banning people from the internet isn't a thing, despite the drama around it.

[scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech]

Nope, not banned, chose to leave. Realized most of my anxiety and fear were due to Reddit's algorithm amping up my issues.

Was banned from a couple of subs for promoting Lemmy though.

[tolookah@discuss.tchncs.de]

Reddit is banned from me.

it doesnt get talked about enough how bad reddit is for your mental health, glad you got out

[deadcatbounce@reddthat.com]

Lemmy is catching up on Reddit. The technical forums/c/r are not as useful yet, and not enough of the hardware suppliers monitor the/their Lemmy communities.

Once that changes over I don't need Reddit.

[southsamurai@sh.itjust.works]

Just like lemmy more

[tiefling@lemmy.blahaj.zone]

I got admin banned for saying riot police should quit en masse after RvW. Half the thread was banned, a bunch of right wingers joined and reported everyone while up voting racist shit

[perogiboi@lemmy.ca]

I’m permanently IP banned from Reddit. During the time when they forced everyone off of third party apps, I posted multiple times in relevant discussions about Lemmy and other Fediverse alternatives. One morning when I logged in my account had a message from Reddit admins that my account and IP address was banned and that any future accounts created would be circumventing the ban and would also be banned.

More reason to leave that site anyway.

I just joined Lemmy today. I found out about it through a piracy site of all things. If it were viable I would replace everything in my life with open-source alternatives. I'm tired of companies getting greedy and ruining the things I love.

Not explicitly answering ops q; what brought me here was a friend who introduced the Lemmy/fediverse. And this is (imo) a better alt to Reddit. It is filled with company accounts, spammers, banned or discontinued sub-reddits..

[drsleepless@lemmy.world]

I like lemmy. Fuck Spez

[funkajunk@lemm.ee]

I'LL START MY OWN REDDIT!
WITH HOOKERS AND BLACKJACK!

[Guest]

wish it wasnt so empty though, but i guess that means making a community here is way easier since people are starving for content

[mesamunefire@lemmy.world]

Neither, deleted my 13+ year account.

[snausagesinablanket@lemmy.world]

Neither.

[ohellidk@sh.itjust.works]

Got really close to getting permabanned, Then switched to using this. Then I started seeing people getting banned for upvoting certain content. Glad I left.

[parmesan@lemmy.world]

Both, I'm sure I could make a new account if I wanted but I don't want to contribute to their dumpster fire of a website anymore anyway

[maeve@kbin.earth]

I came voluntarily after the third party app debacle. I never even used a third party app, it had just gotten so ridiculous that when moderators were putting together a blackout in protest, I made the decision that's when I was leaving and never returning, so that's what I did.

[dan69@lemmy.world]

I agree it can feel like rolling tumbleweeds, but that’s the more reason to invite real humans!

[capuccino@lemmy.world]

Never have been.
