mfw people think lemmy is a free safe space until they discover the biggest instance admins are mostly intolerant, impulsive manchilds UwU
I got banned for calling an antivaxxer a waste of oxygen :3
Well, statistically they'll use less oxygen than the rest of us, to be fair.
Reddit: By Bots; For Bots.
It’s always good to keep your options open. The fediverse has set up guardrails to prevent things from happening here that have already happened out there but anything can fail. I myself have an account on ramble if shit goes bad here. Always have an escape route. Have no loyalty, that will be abused.
You might wanna try out the sorting "scaled" when browsing "all" to find new communities (or check out every c/newcommunity that interests you)
But warning: scaled in all can have a lot of porn if you have nsfw on
You can also just use an instance that defederates from porn, so NSFW can just be for shocking or otherwise violent things.
Thanks for the... the warning.
I got a temp ban from reddit. Not cool enough, apparently.
I write some bad word about Andrew tate House and get all my accounts band in one day . Fuck Reddit
You don't even need to say something, just become a "security risk" to them by using uBlock Origin to block their trackers. In other words, how I personally got banned. Anyway, welcome to Lemmy!
It's not really that much better here. People jumping the gun constantly.
Depends on the instance really.
My bans came from me saying that Israel is committing genocide and that Netenyahu needs to be tried and hanged for his crimes.
Welcome to the family! There are literally 10s of us!
Me too. I commented on a post about a shooting and sarcastically asked how folks were going to blame it on trans people this time. Permabanned!
The censorship has gone mad on Reddit. I was a user there before the whole Digg migration, and it's been such a wonderful ride. It had to end at some point, though.
I'm just at a point where it's genuinely impossible to have a conversation there without having your comments removed, the thread locked, or downvoted to oblivion for not joining in to whatever the masses are yapping about.
Less of a town square and more of a mob of idiots surrounded by bots.
Subreddit mods cannot ban you from Reddit entirely, just their subreddit
accounts still get banned for (at least for me) supporting Palestine.
my ban was due to a comment in a post about some zio settler going into a Palestinian field to remove a Palestinian flag from Palestinian territory, it was boobie trapped and the video showed him as a red mist.
I wrote a long paragraph about the danger of boobie traps and who they are war crimes. but also that zio has a absolutely no right to complain. Banned for supporting violence.
I’ve been banned from a community on here before because I’m sure someone misread my comment.
My comment was clearly aligned with everyone else on the post, but I still got banned and mods did not respond to my messages about getting unbanned.
I've been banned from several communities here for downvoting in one. At least that's what the messages said. Got several bans for communities I didn't even know existed 😂.
Yeah it's gotten bad on reddit
It is the way; welcome
I actually enjoy the experience of Reddit more after having been banned.
I said something mean about idiots riding unregistered/uninsured off-road bikes in and out of traffic (totally illegal in the UK) a few months back.
That got me banned.

Rules:
- Be civil and nice.
- Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
