It’s been very wholesome so far.

Thank you :)

Ye im still somewhat looking into reddit (also to just realize what similar communities I should follow here)

There’s just so many whack websites as basis for discussion. Like newsgeek or other tabloids and people act like it’s the most official matter.

Feels like everyone only reads the headline and starts mashing their keyboards. And your reception tends to be less text = lie. The recent behavior and interaction feels similar to today’s Twitter in terms of rage induction, just for nerds

good riddance, sillicon valley has way too much power over information flow

the more diverse the platforms the better. Also I really like the reskins of this platform! Makes the interface so customizable to your preferences

Welcome on the site <3 (Im also a new ex-redditor - check my latest comment on profile for my story)

Never thought Reddit is so shady.

• I literally just repeated a questionable source of a linked article (like “fox news” as a comment to highlight bias). -> 7 day ban
• Then, i admit bad action: commented via long-time second account one single but wholesome comment during that period. (to someone in need in the same sub, giving a tip on how to handle bad lifesituation. not realizing its the same forum) -> permaban in that forum
• 7 days of trying to talk as diplomatic and giving as possible to the mods, even revealing my innocence of my second account
  • ip ban on all my accounts without any other talks. (prolly the a mod forwarded that to reddit and they dont care at all about nuance)

had like 80k karma & original content posted over the years, but in the end: Gave me energy to join this community here and transfer.

Good riddance. Less american now, F Sillicon Valley more power to the people
