So, I’ve now had a 9 year account and a 13 year account both permabanned.
They’ve linked them as the same user and banned me for a benign post on r/pics.
I lost all faith in reddit when they changed the api then Relay for reddit stopped working.
Base model app is shit.
Comments constantly erase and empty endpoint error.
Can’t even say ‘I like that player two energy on super Mario bros’, because that’s ‘violent’.
I’ve posted tens of thousands of comments and only recently had issues.
Got banned for saying ‘Elon simps in our midst’ referring to mods…who proved my point.
And finally now, they are paywalling shit soon.
Adios.
Anyway, I left digg in the great exodus for reddit, now this looks like my new home.
Rant over lol.
You must log in or register to comment.
New here as well but I also gave you your 666th upvote. So there’s something.
Hell yea!
Fuck reddit and fuck spez
Welcome! I’ve been here since the API fiasco killed everything but their app.
Lemmy feels like old school reddit, I like it.
It definitely does.
I even have the old.reddit res clone on pc.
Welcome. Lemmy is like Reddit but the lemmings are more dogmatic and sensitive.
WHAT did you just say you little shit???!
/s
I think it’s more to do with community size. It’s much easier to have non-anonymous interactions on Lemmy than Reddit. You’ll probably see less of that vibe as Lemmy scales. Though, tbh, I always found Reddit to be way more dogmatic, sensitive, and above all, dramatic and performative than Lemmy.
Reddit’s like the Huffington Post of social media, which I guess makes Facebook Breitbart.
And YouTube all the MSMs combined
Lemmy has the same problem as Reddit. Powertripping mods and community voting pushing the lowest tier karma bait to the top.
.ml is the one to avoid.
YMMV. I can avoid the tankies and the Linux crowd are pretty chill overall, but avoid debating art at all costs.
You forgot fuck spez
Funny you say that, in another comment I tell how that was the first time I got in shit on reddit. And I said it a lot in that era.
I got tired of how mean the comments became…
Yea, definitely picked up some of that Twitter vibe.
That’s because reddit just repost mostly Twitter posts out of context too
Eternal September
Welcome, there hasn’t been a better time than now in a while.
Elom Musk has been pressuring Reddit’s CEO to force mods to accept links to hia fascist platform.
So I can only see Reddit become worse as the years go on.
Yep it’s already nosedived so much it’s way past the point of no return.
Just deleted my account as well.
welcome! it is better here
Got banned for saying a member of the Taliban should be killed and not on a merry go round.
resistance is futile
welcome!
They’re paywalling Reddit?
I think they’re paywalling some nsfw subreddits.
Great idea, so many sites flourish when they limit access to NSFW stuff
If they ban your account do they delete your posts ?
They don’t.
How do I know? I got banned for arguing with a pedo apologist and telling him to go fuck himself. He replied to a comment and then blocked me so that it would seem like I was droppping off of the convo. I edited my last reply to call him out, and bam. Reddit perma-bans me for 'continuing to harass a user who had already blocked you’.
The only way to get rid of your posts and comments so that reddit doesn’t benefit from them is to delete your account.
With the ban in place can you choose to delete your account ?
Yup. The ban just prohibits you from engaging with communities. Like, you can’t post, comment, or upvote. You still have access to your account and feed. So, you can choose to delete it. And I think you should be able to delete individual posts/comments too, though I didn’t try that myself since I decided to just nuke my account.
Been here since the initial API exodus. It’s been pretty good so far. I hope you like it as much as I do. Welcome!
Yup same somebody tell him about the 3 day no poop challenge
Something about beans or something
Is that croc made of denim? Or, what could be called a “Jroc”
I prefer joots“Kids these days gotta pull up themselves up by their jootstraps”
What a stupid post to get blocked forever over
What a terrible day to have eyes
Something something I pooped on a narwhal.
Leave the narwhals behind. Here, we’ve got beans made of denim, aka “Jeans” for short.
And don’t worry about commenting your opinion here, people here are generally willing to listen if you provide supporting information to your viewpoints
Also Trekkies everywhere.

Where you are now:
remember kids:
A place in heaven is reserved for those who speak truth to power
Speaking my language.
Point of order: The reason a place in heaven is reserved for such is usually they don’t survive long
Only Lemmy sucks itself off this hard all the time
These replies prove it: nobody performs autofellatio quite like someone who recently discovered that social media platforms other than Twitter/Facebook/Reddit exist. The users of this platform are largely identical to the users of reddit. The biggest difference is that I’m told to kill myself far more often here
Or maybe you should just go back to 卐itter?
Found the Reddit mod.
I just really don’t like the arrogant, self-congratulatory tone some users of this platform have. We’re just all so much better and smarter and cooler than those dumbass redditors, and all we had to do was sign up for a different social media platform
Some people that get banned correctly on reddit make it here on lemmy sadly, like you
What makes you think I’ve been banned from Reddit? The fact that I don’t like the superiority complex lemmings have about our relatively tiny social network?
ETA: Not all of us were correctly banned from Reddit for abusing the report system. I have a perfectly functional Reddit account, and I choose to spend my time here because it’s a better platform. I just don’t like to cum in my own mouth about it
Eeh, I remember a similar energy on reddit back when Digg had its meltdown.
Most groups suck themselves off about how awesome they are compared to alternate groups in the same genre. Hardstyle vs Progressive trance. BJJ vs Wrestling. Ford vs Holden cars. etc.\
I feel like the trance disagreement is closest to lemmy vs reddit because the disagreement is on principal largely and the end result is pretty similar for a typical, disinterested end user.
