So, I’ve now had a 9 year account and a 13 year account both permabanned.
They’ve linked them as the same user and banned me for a benign post on r/pics.
I lost all faith in reddit when they changed the api then Relay for reddit stopped working.
Base model app is shit.
Comments constantly erase and empty endpoint error.
Can’t even say ‘I like that player two energy on super Mario bros’, because that’s ‘violent’.
I’ve posted tens of thousands of comments and only recently had issues.
Got banned for saying ‘Elon simps in our midst’ referring to mods…who proved my point.
And finally now, they are paywalling shit soon.
Adios.
Anyway, I left digg in the great exodus for reddit, now this looks like my new home.
Rant over lol.
Been here since the initial API exodus. It’s been pretty good so far. I hope you like it as much as I do. Welcome!

Only Lemmy sucks itself off this hard all the time
These replies prove it: nobody performs autofellatio quite like someone who recently discovered that social media platforms other than Twitter/Facebook/Reddit exist. The users of this platform are largely identical to the users of reddit. The biggest difference is that I’m told to kill myself far more often here
I just really don’t like the arrogant, self-congratulatory tone some users of this platform have. We’re just all so much better and smarter and cooler than those dumbass redditors, and all we had to do was sign up for a different social media platform
Most groups suck themselves off about how awesome they are compared to alternate groups in the same genre. Hardstyle vs Progressive trance. BJJ vs Wrestling. Ford vs Holden cars. etc.\
welcome, we have linux and communism.
I know, lemmy doesn’t broker any dissent either
Just as far as echo chambers go, I’d rather have the one where it’s okay to talk about punching nazis
You don’t get to say that till there is a drop-in linux solution for the everyday user.
You’ve had decades, get your shit together
Reddit needed you more than you needed Reddit. The moment you are slightly less efficient advertising money, they told you to hit the road. When people tell you who they really are, you should listen.
That’s a good point. Reddit needs humans, they’re forgetting that part. Maybe the shareholders are too stupid to figure that out yet?
Doesn’t matter if they cash out before others figure it out and are left holding the bag.
I closed my account 2 weeks ago after being there for 13+ years. Thousands and thousands of comments and posts. Oh well, I don’t even miss it a little bit. It truly became garbage when they locked out free API access. This banning for liking Luigi or shit talking Elon is so against what reddit was about, they’ve lost their way and I refuse to participate.
Wild so many are having the same shit happen…
Glad we are both here.
Whoever created this mlmym github repo that gives me old.reddit.com back is a fucking hero OMFG.
