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

[l0rdmathias@sh.itjust.works]

No and not really. Reddit is just past its expiration date. I believe Lemmy suffers from a lot of the same systemic issues and that will prevent it from becoming an actual long term solution.
It's just the alpha version. It's better than the prototype, but it's still built on the same fundamentals and will likely suffer a similar type of failure.

Reddit didn’t permanently ban me, I permanently banned it. It started with Reddit killing third-party apps, but nowadays Reddit is a Nazi bar, so there’s no going back.

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!

[1024_kibibytes@lemm.ee]

I haven't been on Reddit much since they banned 3rd party apps.

[grte@lemmy.ca]

Not banned. I'm being the change I want to see.

[gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works]

Yes; yes

[snowstorm@lemmy.ca]

Can you develop that idea?

[psycho_driver@lemmy.world]

Just like what lemmy stands for. I still visit reddit from time to time, mostly to use it to search for real product feedback (the window for which it will be useful is limited) and for a few niche communities that lemmy just isn't big enough to get any traction with. I post very occasionally in said communities.

I just like lemmy more, I deleted my 13 year old reddit account

[thefartographer@lemm.ee]

Fuck Reddit. Does that answer help?

[morefpsmorebetter@lemmy.zip]

Banned outta nowhere. I submitted an appeal asking what rule I broke and it was denied with no explanation. 2 accounts. Several 100 thousand post and comment karma on one of them. I had been banned from individual communities for pissing off random mods but never a site admin.

Fuck em. I hope it crashes and burns.

[cabron_offsets@lemmy.world]

I have no idea how many times I was permabanned. But what turned me to Lemmy was that cuntrag Spez taking away my Apollo.

[upbeatoffbeat@sh.itjust.works]

Not banned, just no high quality free apps and I got tired of paying for Narwhal. Hydra is okay but kind of laggy for some reason. Mlem is a joy to use so it makes me want to be here more.

[littletoolshed@lemmy.world]

Welcome to Lemmy! Just by being here you’re about to find out (whether you like it or not!) just how viable it is to replace (almost) everything in your life with open source alternatives, it’s just seems to be part of the (awesome) culture around here. Enjoy!

[bentheredonethat@lemm.ee]

I’m not banned, just tired of reading the brigading reds spamming every thread

i am permanently banned. i have gotten around it several times but this one seems inescapable lol. tbh i wouldn't make a new account if i could.

The 3rd party app change didn't sit well with me. Ended up stop using reddit on my phone entirely since native was horrible.
Ended up coming here when the crackdown on "Luigi" was happening and other censorship that was questionable AF.
The amount of content here obviously isn't comparable to reddit, yet, but it's enough to digest throughout the day on work poop breaks and whatnot.

[idontplaythetrombone@lemmy.world]

I like lemmy more, but it doesn't have as much daily content, so I use both.

[Guest]

Perma banned. Definitely Perma banned.

Funny how I went what thirteen years or something, being the same cranky old progressive I've always been yet the MOMENT the orange cancer takes office again and reddit kowtows to muskrat, I get permanently banned.

Karma like no tomorrow so apparently a lot of people agreed with me.

[ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone]

I deleted my account before the reddit exodus, when it became clear to me they were heading the way of all centralised social media
