They exchanged messages just before the subreddit r/WhitePeopleofTwitter was given a temporary ban for 72 hours
I got a lifetime IP ban on Reddit for saying “Fuck Elon Musk all the way to hell” - so fuck Reddit, fuck DOGE, and especially fuck Elon.
My permaban came from a post about DOGE. They deleted the comment, permabanned me, and wouldn’t let me see what I even commented. They said it was “encouraging violence” but hell no, I was making sure not to say anything like that. Wonder if I just insulted Elon and reddit decided to finally get rid of me.
Ya. The ol’ “encouraging violence”. Pretty much the same thing as “national security”
I guess time to bail for good?
Probably, yeah. I made new accounts often but my oldest would probably have been 2010. But I’ve given up once I found lemmy aside from occasionally going back to help people come over when I know reddit has further agitated its existing base.
That’s more or less why I left reddit and came to lemmy.
This is in fact my very first post here. :)
I got here because they killed Apollo 🫶🏻 never forget
I use Voyager now for lemmy
I’m brand new as well and hopeful but wow the smaller forums here need some love. The topic variety is small to the point where maybe straight up bot cloning subreddits here where posts on Reddit just get reposted to their Lemmy equivalent to kick start refugees feeling at home. Plus if there’s basically cross platform discussion posts it gives ground for users of existing subreddits to migrate.
Same. Just created my account
I think we chose well.
Man he’s such a little fucking snowflake isn’t he?
Which one, (fuck) spez or the Nazi saluting trust fund baby?
Reddit died June 2023
I don’t know why people are still playing with the corpse
Why is anyone on Reddit??
More content than on Lemmy.
Then lets change that
It’s hard for the subreddits that barely have any traction as is. But it’s entirely feasible for most of them. Is there a way on lemmy to have small communities new post always come up on the top of your feed?
First of all this isnt reddit so its not subreddits. We are communities here
And second: feed sorters exist
It’s hard enough getting acclimated here and then someone comes along and asks an innocent question or looks for more information and it’s all “fIrST oF AlL ThIs IsN’t ReDdIt” like no shit, shut the fuck up and stop being the problem with this site that makes people leave.
Reddit has been compromised by the oligarchs.
I just left after twenty years. I warned them about overly censoring in their research calls but I guess they didn’t want to listen
