    Me, I got banned. I still used RIF until it died just to read Reddit, but once that was over I was done.

      I came hoping for more intelligent content and less middle-schoolish "I hate <whatever> and if you don't hate it enough too you're EVIL!"

      Found pretty much the same level of that, but I do like the UI better.

        Me, arbitrary ass ban while using an alt trying to gain karma on the front page so I could post with it, my first comment insta banned all accounts permanently because I guess I was banned from that sub on my main/og account.

                can't comment re: lemmy mods because I don't mod here. but. reddit and other social networks benefit incredibly - and I have no doubt lemmy as well - from the sheer mountains of trash, spam, fuckwits and bots that assail their daily content, that mods remove and you never have to see or only see for a few minutes. please stand up and volunteer to mod if you think you could help, it's certainly needed.

                    Me, I'm getting constantly banned from r/Europe by this moronic mods.

                    Banned by writing about that Germany never paid anything to Poland for holocaust of Polish citizens

                    I'm reading worldnews rules on Lemmy. There should be lax rules, no ban whatsoever - only for pedophilia and obvious crime like drugs, terrorism, videos of murders

                      Old reddit was so so useful this transition to everybody being loud with little depth of knowledge has been sad to watch.

                      The people who shouldn't comment or reply ro any post are the ones who immediately chime in with advice there, they've even taken to giving you ai responses like mf, I am fully capable of opening chatgpt on my own if I wanted ai responses

                            Got a few accounts banned there. It became for increasingly ridiculous reasons over time, so I decided after getting perma-banned for saying I hope trump strokes out from some condition he was said to have (blood pooling in his cankles), I decided the catering to the Maga pigs was too much - apparently saying you hope someone's condition worsens is "violence" now. Another was banned from a local subreddit for throwing out the idea of removing valve cores from the tires of ICE vehicles to slow them down. Insane. Done with that horseshit, the censorship has become out of fucking control there.

                              Left around the API drama times. I still visit, but haven't posted anything for two years.

                              My only regret is that I still haven't defaced my profile over there - I'm looking for ways to save my data and somehow link it to the original posts/comments, because besides the shitposting, I've posted some things that could be useful to myself too.

                                  Took away my subreddits that I created with cumulative 200k+ subscribers and perma-banned me for a fake reason (using alternate account to evade subreddit ban).

                                  Never again.

                                    Given that the US is a fascist state at the moment and that Reddit is an American media company that has to navigate in that country where propaganda and free speech suppression is so present that seems to be a given.

                                        Jumped ship when that API shit started. I like this communities way more than a lot ob subreddits that have been around before.

                                          yeah it's a lot easier to bitch about 'power tripping mods' and whine about their work than it is to deal with the csam and other garbage the chuds try to post. but you either care enough to chip in or you don't.
