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

I just switched when the API nonsense shat all over the actually good reddit apps, since I primarily used reddit on my phone.
I saw lemmy touted as an alternative and figured why not?

470 days since seeing a post from someone who still cares about Reddit for some reason. -

Temporary ban but Reddit is becoming less and less fun. Less interesting.
It’s time to move on.

Just like Lemmy more.
Reddit gave me a temp ban, but I declined their generous offer to return after a week.
I had reported a post by some far-right religious fundamentalist for promoting political violence. Reddit told me that reporting ToS-breaking content is a bannable offense, perhaps because the far-right owners of reddit feel like kindred spirits to the uber-conservative terrorist sympathizer that got reported.

I like Lemmy more because it is more aligned with my interest, notably Tech and Linux. I also like to have smaller communities in which your interaction have impact and are being read instead of being lost in thoudands of comments.

No, I still have my account but never use it anymore. After the api fiasco I came over here because I didn’t like how Reddit went about everything. I like it better here I get a bit of content and I’m done for the day, Reddit was addicting and it was made to be. Here I just check the feed until I get to yesterday stuff and I’m done for the day. I’m pretty sure I’m gonna see the same stuff just it’s just not endlessly regurgitated by bots and karma farmers. I like it better here, feels cozy compared to Reddit.

I liked reddit but came here because I'm Canadian and am trying my best to ween myself from american products and services due to the american administrations newfound disrespect for my country. Also, tariffs.

Not banned, but it sounds like I would be if I was still a power user of reddit. The only time I still go to the site is for very specific niche gaming subreddits that the developers sometimes post in, I haven't even seen /all in years at this point. I can post my same dogshit takes to U.S. political news on Lemmy, and it's way less likely I'll get some moron intentionally misconstruing my comment or mass reporting to get it removed!

Left reddit when Sync stopped working.
Been here ever since and I actually prefer it here anyway.Reddit was and probably still is an echo chamber of bots and catch phrases. There were a few useful gems of information when you googled something, but now most of that content has become unreliable due to some people (like me) who salted and later deleted their comments before leaving.
Also Spez was a dick

For someone saying karma doesn't mean anything you're sure farming lots of it! Making good comments and shit worthy of upvotes! You're quite a terrible hypocrite!

I just refuse to use the official mobile app. When they killed Apollo, I left. I’ll use old Reddit sometimes when on my desktop but all my mobile browsing is on Lemmy with Voyager

I waited about 6 months and I'm using the same email and devices. It felt like I had a temp shadowban when I was back on but after about 2 months that seems to have gone away.
I avoid getting pulled into fights now by blocking users and subreddits that are obnoxious.

Neither, I still use reddit because the sub reddit pertaining to my interests are still active. Lemmy is almost entirely political discussion from what I've seen, and most other boards pertaining to specific interests have low activity.

I chose to leave a year ago as the 3rd party apps (I was using RiF (Reddit is Fun)) were being killed. Realized it was the beginning of the end and I left.
Tried a couple of Lemmy apps since then (and I have been mostly stocking) and landed on Connect for Lemmy and I'm very happy to have left the corporate hell-hole of social media
