    Is anyone here so hardcore that they don't even bother with mainstream social media? If its not on Lemmy or Mastodon it must not be important? Anyone that hardcore?

    I never go to Reddit anymore after moving to Lemmy, but I do sometimes end up on a Reddit post it's a relevant search result.

      Haha, I pretty much did the same but only got a ban for 7 days xD

      I'm also banned on many subs because I said a Tesla looks best when there is flames inside, which they say is promoting violence...

      It's a freaking car...

      Reddit really is fucked

      Oh I got a 7 day ban. Three times cause I don't know when to quit.

      And yea I fucking hate. It's cause, technically, property damage is "violent" by the definition.
      Yet, it's fucking stupid to equivocate damage to inanimate object to damage to a living being.

        After reddit apps were killed, using reddit became a chore.
        I can now only use reddit in Firefox mobile or desktop and its not super polished for mobile.

        Lemmy boost app is much more polished so I naturally gravitate to it over reddit. Also creating new accounts after bans is A lot easier

          I am going to make a more concerted effort to use Lemmy more than Reddit moving forward. I just wish it had more info over here. I think from now on if I cannot find the info that I seek on Lemmy, I will find some sources on Reddit and then maybe pay it forward via sharing my findings on Lemmy. That's at least what I'm going to try and do for a while and see if I can help make a difference.

                  Banned from a sub Reddit, but you wouldn't be banned from Reddit site wide - unless you off the scale heinous.

                  As much as I dislike Reddit's direction and have had site wide temporary bans myself, i find it hard to believe you were properly banned for what you described. I was temporary banned because I was flaunting that I wasn't abiding by Reddit's rules, and even then, it was only a 2 week ban on a single account.

                      Reddit for browsing hobby-related stuff, Lemmy if I want to get mad at Israel, seeing as that's every comment section and every single post.

                        Nope got banned from all of reddit. First a few days. Then right after those were over a week. Then permanent.

                        It was all right after the previouse ban ran out. Can show the ban messages if i can find them. I know I send them to friends to laught about

                        Edit: i got banned for inciting violence all 3 times

                              not quite

                              I nearly exclusively use Lemmy over Reddit, mastadon over xitter and Facebook, pixelfed over Instagram, ("nearly" because I still have the accounts, in case someone needs to contact me there). Although Lemmy is the only one I use frequently.

                              I still use YouTube and tiktok instead of peertube and loops though. They're just not big enough to host the content I'm interested in.

                                    I was more or less exclusively lemmy for a good year or so, up until several months ago.

                                    I would've logged into reddit maybe 3 or 4 times in the last year.

                                    Sadly, I have to admit that browsing reddit with redlib or something is better than lemmy.

                                    Lemmys main virtue is that its not reddit.

                                    There's less content here, and it really is an echo chamber.

                                        I return to Reddit mostly to harvest memes to bring here, or to ask obscure questions that I don't think there's enough of an audience here to get a good answer (I'm still looking for the "The Swaggoraki are swarming!" pic, if any Warhammer meme fans can find it)

                                          I exclusively use Lemmy to complain when my new Reddit account gets shadowbanned again. The issue is that the communities here simply are not big enough. I go on the Lemmy alternatives of the subreddits I visit often and there are like 4 posts over the course of multiple years
