Reddit has streaks now??

Many many years and ass loads of karma....

But apparently LIKING posts can get you banned now. What a shit show.

And nothing of value was lost

What did you do?

Lemmy. The support group for burned reddit veterans.

We were there. We put in thousands of hours of work. Years of moderating. Free work. Content creators. People who commented. Voted. All that karma ...

All gone cause you upvoted an anti trump or musk post. Or maybe you upvoted a photo of a tessler burning.

Maybe you didn't think Luigi should get the death penalty.

Don't worry brother. Upvote what you want. Be free with the rest of us.

Hello everyone. You're not alone. I got banned like for 4-5 times, using local Ukrainian words that may look like slurs, but they aren't.

I got unbanned, but I am still too scared to write anything about politics on Reddit. I want a working account there for IT questions.

Yep that’s why I’m here. They banned my 12 year account for sympathizing with Luigi.

I got banned for pointing out that ICE are a human trafficking terrorist gang

Reddit banned all the people that made it fun, now the only people left are the boring ones and bots lol

So is Lemmy the dumping ground for people getting banned on reddit now?

Can we talk about how screwed up that streak notification is? Let's encourage people who show signs of unhealthy usage of the platform to further their addiction?

You have a 300 day streak of using heroin, don't stop now!

Someone should start Blueit. See cuz they blew it, get it?

Welcome, don't step in the Tankies on your way in.

I've had my reddit account for 17 years and I received my first warning for inciting violence because I commented "this makes me want to make a whip and go to town on these people" (a reference to Jesus running out the money changers in the temple) on a video of a megachurch service showing a woman painting trump bowing to a cross.

Exactly like my account except 30ish days ago. Welcome to Lemmy! If you're reading this comment the ban bots haven't taken over:

Luigi Mangione Innocent Death Elon Musk Trump

My reddit account got a strike by an admin for describing the risks involved in traveling to the USA currently (abduction, torture for an undetermined amount of time). The appeal I made to that was accepted but it left a sour taste in my mouth.

Welcome to the club!!!

Reddit used to be good enough to get people to post daily without cajoling

I canceled my reddit pro, or reddit+ account, whatever the f*ck it is called, and the ads, the ads.... Ads that look like posts, or comments. It's almost making me 100% Lemmy too.

I was permabanned without explanation and reinstated two weeks later, again without comment.

I believe this tracks with what to expect should we ever see the tech-bro billionaires divide the world into monarchy fiefdoms ocer which rhey are each the unchallenged lord and master.

I still haven't been told I've been officially banned, they just give me server errors all the time (only on my main account, not when going on any other account/incogni)

Reading all these ban stories, I'm glad I left during the API thing! I don't like censoring myself.

I tried to like Reddit but every time I tried posting something I thought was original or thoughtful it would get auto deleted by a bot for not including the right "flair" or some other stupid shit.

Oh this is me. Got banned from Reddit and am on lemmy fulltime.

Uh oh, did you suggest something that isn't aligned with corporate status quo enforcement?
