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

[Guest]

I find it super funny honestly, because I left Reddit because of shit moderation and a gross bias toward liberal posts in the moderation (ironic now). Then I come here to escape, which I'm realizing is a very liberal a platform, and I'm noticing that it wasn't that it was leftist leaning, the people were just insufferable.

I routinely find things in common with people across the aisle here and the content is way more objective.

I never got perma banned, but I was silenced enough to know that it wasn't good for my mental health to stay. Lemmy is great. I think this is a platform where people can actually just meet in the middle and talk. I got banned from Mastadon on my first day, so it was a no go.

But banana bread, at fucking work bro? HELL. YEAH.

I’ve never been banned from Reddit even temporarily, I just like Lemmy more

I got a new account after my old one got banned but now I never challenge the echo chamber. I just ban/block obnoxious subs and users to avoid the temptation. I stay mainly for some interest groups there and local subs.

Lemmy is going to the local store and Reddit is going to the mall.

Same; haven't looked at reddit since I came here (other than the occasional search engine question where a reddit thread has the info)

On average I think I end up spending more time on reddit, but I contribute to and like this community a lot more.

They ip ban you if you do that because they consider it ban evasion I believe

[sam_bass@lemmy.ml]

Permabanned but I do like it here

[loudwaterenjoyer@lemmy.dbzer0.com]

I was never banned and I never really wrote any comments

If you turn your internet router off and on, it should be assigned a new IP address by your ISP. That's how mine works anyway. This is why dynamic DNS services exist, so you can host things at home even though you don't have a static IP address.

I was banned off reddit doing to standing up to the r/seculartalk mod Liam and him throwing a little bitchy fit when I used my alts to warn users he was banning them for disagreeing with them. The site then banned me for circumventing his sub ban.

The only thing is I hope it grows so there is more non political content.

How can you circumvent a reddit ban?

[sam_bass@lemmy.ml]

Yeah that would great

[goretantath@lemm.ee]

Just like lemmy more.

Not banned, was never active. Just lurked on certain subreddits. I've engaged way more here than I ever did there

I was on Reddit from mid 2012 to mid 2023, across a few accounts and with a hiatus of a few months here and there. I had been passively looking at less centralized forms of personal interaction on the web, trying to find traditional forums to replace the subs I frequented. Like a lot of people here, the API issues and the news of Reddit courting investors left a bad taste in my mouth.

I deleted my account, but I still lurk on a few subs, and my IT job means I have to dig through reddit posts on a regular basis for troubleshooting purposes.

[socialmediarefugee@lemmy.ml]

You don't, you wait it out.
