Honestly, I’d be interested to hear about your adventures.
1st time: no idea - got shadowbanned 2nd time: laughing at charlie kirk
Damn, I have almost the same story.
Thankfully lemmy doesn’t have thought crime and your welcome to engage in good faith discussion of any topic.
Then you get also permabanned from a lot of lemmy instances for thought crime ?
Calling for Elon Musk to get burned by the Canadian government for subsidy fraud. They took me literally, instead of recognizing the term for when a government disavows, or cuts all ties with a person or business, is called getting “burned”.
I got permabanned for saying billionaires deserve death one too many times.
They got very strict on “person a can die in a fire” that seemed to be a new rule. Once you are on the radar with this, it’s a matter of time.
Oh yeah. I got a temp ban for saying the above and then got 2 more strikes for just saying the word “violence” which resulted in my permaban.
I just nuked my account and fecked off to Lemmy after the API kill.
I didn’t. I left when they killed RiF
They killed Apollo in cold blood!
Same, sad they killed rif but at least it pushed me to lemmy
“Report button abuse” for reporting too many blatant ads as spam.
It happened right around the same time as the API fiasco, so I didn’t give two flying fucks. I was leaving anyway.
I just… left.
They didn’t ban me; I banned them…
I got banned for telling conservatives to go fuck themselves too intensely.
Banned from r/worldnews for “racism” (said that the Russian elites have been committing social and moral degradation for centuries, by killing, imprisoning or exiling anyone with independent thoughts). Banned from numerous subreddits for “participating in a hate subreddit” (correcting someone once in r/KotakuInAction).
The Russians have killed off the Polish elite for example, so I would agree this is very true. But fuck reddit
I got banned for “attempting to circumvent a ban” despite not being banned at the time.
Wait, can you tell more?
No. I don’t know anything else. I tried to appeal the ban but never heard anything else. Fuck 'em
By the way, my 3rd account was banned because I asked why my post was banned.
Maybe you had the same username as someone who got banned?
Don’t know. Don’t care. Reddit is a hot pile of garbage.
I didn’t. I left of my own accord.
I said billionaires should be put to the guillotine.
I asked why the CIA hadn’t killed Trump yet. That, and upvoting a comment of a user who later got banned, got me banned.
I was added to a moderation list on Bluesky for following someone on Twitter and subsequently muting them, and then forgetting I had followed them when I used a tool to migrate all of my follows to Bluesky. Which is just a stupid mistake, but what about people who are following notable bigots because they’re journalists and have to keep tabs on what they say?
Being banned for upvoting someone’s comment seems similarly tunnel-visioned. If you’re upvoting their pun about the moon or their helpful cooking suggestion or their computer build tip, getting banned because you didn’t check their entire post history before upvoting is absolutely insane to me.
Guilt by association is only a thing if it’s actually association.
Same
Honesty can be deadly. :3
My only site ban (which I got overturned eventually) was from commenting in agreement with a post of a woman wearing a shirt that said “Punch a Nazi.” It was shortly after that, that I came here and haven’t looked at Reddit since.
