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

[Guest]

Lemmy has a variety of fresh opinions, and I like how everyone has different experiences. For example, I hardly see a unified opinion on what people think of Gen-Xers, Millenials, Gen Z and Gen Alpha. They seem well-distributed and for the most part, there's less of those subtle reddit-style "generalizations" here. I typically look for internet spaces that emulate reality, and I think Lemmy does that well.

My reddit username is tied to multiple embarassing things I did when I was a lot more immature, during my early 10s, and now that I'm in my late 10s, I'd rather not have my embarassing 2018 things affect my 2025 things.

I also left during that period. Third party apps were and are a lot better. Fuck spez.

[undeffeined@lemmy.ml]

Left back when they announced the API changes and never looked back.

[Guest]

Deleted my account when they killed 3rd party apps. Fuck that shithole.

Mix of both.

I got perma banned for telling someone to crawl back into their hole because they were defending female genital mutilation while saying circumcision was perfectly fine because uncut penises "looked nasty".

But I can still access all of reddit. I just can't comment or upvote/downvote anything. And the nsfw instance of lemmy is a shit show of having to constantly block the same content over and over because there's eleventy billion versions of the same community.

Who tf would defend FGM, are they Muslim? I'm pretty sure only Muslims do that see degenerate shit, Egypt (a Muslim country) has 95%, and their excuse for doing objectively harmful is so weird, they say it is so women don't enjoy sex and don't seek it

This identical question was asked on another instance.

[los_chill@programming.dev]

I prefer this community.

[Guest]

I've never had a Reddit account so I guess that I've never been banned, technically.

[Guest]

They gave me a tempory ban for bull crap so i deleted my 10+ year old account and moved here

I'm not banned on reddit, never have been. I use both daily. Lemmy to see what my fellow humans are talking about, Reddit for when I want to see what bots are talking about.

[kurtagag@lemmy.ca]

Im banned. But I like it here now!

[Guest]

Perma-banned, and the worst part is I'm not even sure why. I logged in while away on vacation, got hit with the 'you're logging in from an usual location, please confirm with an e-mail code', and when I did that, boom, locked with no option to appeal.

I find some humor in that a robot decided I was a robot. Perhaps that will save me when the great robot uprising occurs?

[stern@lemmy.world]

Got permabanned. I was one of the last protestors from the API stuff standing.

[vinesnfluff@pawb.social]

I was never banned on Reddit (did get the boot from like 3 subs but that was in 10 years of redditing) — but I manually purged my account when I left.

[pineapplelover@lemm.ee]

Fuck /u/spez

[Guest]

I've just deleted my Reddit account, to switch entirly to Lemmy. No ban or something, i just don't want to use social media from the US anymore.

[Guest]

Was permanently banned because of "inciting violence", a.k.a. making fun of Trump and Musk with a few Luigi comments sprinkled in.
