I was on Reddit for 10 years, and I have absolutely no clue why I was banned. I just moved, so maybe it was because my new ISP dealt me a bad IP?

Anyway, Reddit:

  1. Has no email, and doesn’t respond to e-mails.
  2. Doesn’t respond to mod mail, doesn’t tell you why you were banned.
  3. Doesn’t respond to appeal.
  4. Autobans any user I create.
  5. Seemingly doesn’t give a shit about it’s long-term users.

I guess from here on out I’m a… Lemming? Lemmyzen? Lemmy user?

Anyway thanks for having me! Reddit was shit anyway. I’ve been without it for a week now, and my life has definitely improved lol

    Same thing happened to me. I admit I’ll rage post sometimes and sure I might deserve a subreddit ban here or there. But I’ve never done anything worthy of a site-wide ban. But the reddit admins act like dictators on a power trip. They LOVE to slap people with site-wide bans. For no good reason, and I don’t understand it. The admins have turned the whole site toxic, and places like Lemmy are a direct response to their insane powertripping.

    Right now it sucks. Reddit is still the most popular forum on the internet. I pray that someday it won’t be.

      reddit upped thier filters recently, so the subreddit mods did the same as well, its pretty hard to justify commenting on it now. ive been on subs like LAMF, FACEPALm for a long time, suddenly some of my accounts can comment because of them claiming an increased in spam.
