Reddit full bore banned me for saying “I should have a legal right to punch nazis” and declined my appeal.
Reddit is unironically nazi aligned and that’s not a joke it’s terrifying.
Reddit is aligned with the corporate overlords of the US, which are nazi aligned.
to the sword with both of them
But… but… Won’t someone think of the poor innocent nazis???
(I got a warning for pretty much the same reason and decided not to hang around until I got a full ban.)
I haven’t been full banned yet but have grown tired of the amazing levels of stupidity. I caught a temp ban for incivility for writing “Your mother should have gone through with her Planned Parenthood appointment.”
Not very civil of you dear…
Tbh you can catch bans for that here but beauty of fediverse is that power tripping mods have limited ability to ban you fedi wide so freedom enjoyer’s just go do their discourse on other sub’s and servers
I find that answer amazing and I will adopt it from now on to all the orange guy followers, cheers
Go forth with my blessings.
To be fair, that’s kinda deserved. You could experience the same here.
There are plenty of other reasons to hate on Reddit, but acting in a fairly civil manner should be expected.
Glad to have you here though! 😊
Banning people who aren’t “safe spacey enough” is fucking stupid.
People can be abrasive. People can be mean. People will absolutely take your shit if you let them.
Hiding from them in a bubble doesn’t make them disappear (and shockingly sometimes they have points to make).
Hmm…
So your argument is that we potentially lose valuable insight?
I agree in principle, but it is hard to balance.
Because without a certain amount of civility we potentially lose the voice of minorities and oppressed groups of people.
In a free democratic country you of course should be legally allowed to be abrasive and say mean hurtful things.
How would you balance/solve this dilemma on a social network? The same way as the law?
I am a bit torn here
Permabanned after nearly 12 years. Forgive me for hating Nazi’s. I’d made the statement fuck all Nazi’s but six several times but this time was this time I got automod flagged. They are pretty much flagging the word Nazi regardless of context or overall statements made. The same goes for the word Luigi. Also, Karma is basically useless considering downvoting too much can also lead to a ban. It is pretty ridiculous. I’d never been banned once for any reason except for the last 6 months where I’ve been sub banned or gotten 3-7 day bans several times for making points about the sorry state of affairs in America lately. Forgive me for not bowing to kiss the fascist MAGA ring. Reddit has really put profits over people this time with these stupid rules and no real care in reading appeals or looking at context during moderation. It is all for their bottom line and oligarch investors now.
Interesting. My 10 year old account also got perma banned for telling someone defending the third Nazi salute to “go to hell”.
Apparently I should have told them to “go fuck themselves”. But telling them to “go to hell” was inciting violence or whatever.
I like how “go to hell” inciting violence implies that hell is a real place or something lol
I got mine for saying we needed to cyberbully Elon Musk to suicide. A little edgy maybe, but old Reddit wouldn’t have batted an eye.
Yeah, I’ve said fuck all Nazis but six or kill all Nazis but six a hundred times on there, but this time was a bridge too far apparently. I really don’t care if they think it is violent. They’ll get theirs eventually I guess if history is a cyclical as it seems. Just gonna keep on trucking and spreading the word when I can, but it sure as shit ain’t going to be on Reddit. I think I’m getting too old, grizzled, and cynical for any form of social media anymore anyways. It’s all just so… fake. Reddit was the last bastion for me. I probably won’t be that prolific on here, but we’ll see.
What’s with the “but six” part?
Save them for pallbearers.
you can get flagged or astroturfed for calling out people trying to sanewash nazis, usually its the statement"You should not call everyone a nazi you disagree with" type of post.
Yep. The whataboutism and trying to play the both sides are wrong shit is so old. I think it is fair to say that a large portion of the Democratic party are gutless centrist DINO’s, can’t get their point across, can’t get a coalition going, and have no real power or momentum right now, but to try and argue that they are as bad as the conservatives is complete nonsense. Certainly, no party is perfect but to even try to say they are equivalent is folly of the highest order. Many in the republican party are fascists and I’m sick of people pretending that they aren’t. Nuanced conversation is lost on the bots, AI slop, and the rest of the idiots on Reddit.
I’m pretty sure OP posted the wrong image.
Me?
Absolutely. I’m here after a decade+ over there.
I’ve been here since they killed third-party apps. I regret nothing, this place is my home now.
I still go sometimes, but I use the RDX app and don’t contribute
Welcome in from the cold. We have hot cocoa and blankets.
Wait a minute, this hot cocoa cup is just full of beans
Well…
You need to compile your own cocoa from the source.Heres the conch, the cocoa beans are in your cup, a bit of sugar and a bit of milk.
If you need help compiling all ingredients, call the farmer.
And lots of gay
And cookies.
The dark mode cookies in particular ;)
I came from reddit due to overt censorship, so yeah. I hope this place gets more populated, reddit definitely has the userbase advantage for now.
Welcome!
I’ve been here for a while now. The userbase can be seen as an advantage, but it’s also a negative. Things move so fast in reddit and everyone is just passing by each other. You can have actual conversations here though. It feels more communal.
I want more users so niche communities can thrive, but I’m also worried about it becoming too much like Reddit has been for a while now.
Lemmy is not commercial, so the more fundamental problem will be battling bots, hosting, legal issues, and attracting users from sites that burn cash on advertising and entrapment, probably.
The community could get toxic, but it’s not going to be stoked from the top, and it’s more escapable.
Welcome in from the cold. We have hot cocoa and blankets.
Aren’t we getting fancy! When I moved over after the api changes all we had was potatoes. Lemmy is definitely improving with each new wave.
Also beans. Can we bring back the beans, you know, for the newbies?
You must have been on a fancy server, where I was it was only potatoes.
I’m an exodusee as well, just a minnow at this point.
I just got sick of the right wing bullshit, the censorship, the shills, the morons, the bootlickers…
Hello all
Welcome! Have a kitty pic!
Despite the look on her face, the only trauma she suffered was having her blanket fort folded and tidied.
;_; I can’t see any kitty pic
She does look concerned, I’ll give you that!
I shall also pay the tax:
Ohhh, such a relaxed bun. Very much at odds with how violent and energetic I’m sure they actually are.
That scene from the Holy Grail is pretty much spot on.
This is her relaxed after going for my jugular
Ty, ty. No talking about pets without paying the pic tax. One back for you.
Such a sweet kitty! Looks ready to fuck up some decorations tho!

Right here with you. Posted a brief goodbye on my sub and jumped over here. Luigi.
That was one of the last straws, not being able to say Luigi.
welcome in! insert obligatory ‚dozens of us‘ meme here.
Thank you!
Where is the door in case I get scared
The door is located after you click your username in the upper-right corner, and choose “Settings” from the drop-down. Scroll to the bottom of the page. On the left, in red, is a button to delete your account.
I’m not sure what really happens after that, though - I’ve never gone out that door. IIRC a deletion can take time, since various servers have to sync that information.
-Takes a bong hit-
So in a way, a recently-deleted account continues to exist across the Fediverse for a while. It is temporarily trapped to this plane of existence, until it can complete its final mission (deleting itself) across every corner of its known Fediverse. Then, and only then, can an account truly experience deletion.
-Passes to the left-
I’m glad I took a hit literally directly before reading this.
Accepts pass, bogarts
Welcome! Glad you made it over. Any way I can clear thing up or make it more smooth?
Coke and a ciggie and I’ll be right as rain
Welcome, it’s nice to have you!
Oh, i approved your application a couple of hours ago. Hello! Welcome to lemmy and dbzer0. I hope you like it here :)
Dragon ball zero?
Divisions by zero x) but we do call db0 “dragon ball zero” in the matrix chat, lol
Lol ok. Thanks now I can say in quietly in my head and not feel stupid lol
Mods remove a post from /r/worldnews about Musk pushing for the US to leave NATO because it’s “not the appropriate subreddit”…? Excuse me, what the fuck???
Mod decisions always baffled me, both on Reddit and Lemmy. We aren’t immune to it.
But here it’s a lot easier to set up a new home.
!theonion@midwest.social is still very popular but I saw the writing on the wall and jumped to make an alt !theonion@sh.itjust.works because people had gripes with the Midwest admin and I wanted to prevent an inevitable Lemmy.world alternative from appearing.
And now we happily co-exist. Theirs tends to focus more on the political while I like to also post the more mundane, slice-of-life, articles
We’re witnessing the second reddit wave now, just like we always knew it would come eventually when reddit crossed another enshitification threshold.
Welcome all!
Next one will be when the kill old.reddit.
You know that’s coming
Maybe.
Most people use apps though, so it’s not high on their enshittification list.
Facts, it’s already happening when most of the perfectly fine comments are collapsed in any interesting topic. Like yesterday when twitter was down. Every comment under the top level memes were collapsed so you have to click the + in front of it and get bored quickly and just give up. Same today with Musk post about being all weird about his empire.
nothing to see here move along type of thing
Happy to be here… I think. Doesn’t seem too weird so far.
Enshitification complete!
FWIW, there were also a few smaller waves before the big API one, but they were mostly individual communities migrating (/r/piracy, /r/genzedong, …)
These last few messups are too silly that I can’t even guess what they’ll do next. Surely they won’t force ID registration…
I’m pretty sure my account ban is coming, the fact it isn’t banned already is likely an oversight of the fascist running the place.
Most of my accounts are banned or suspended now.
Maybe it’s the fact I have only one? There are a couples places that would be a lot quieter if I stopped commenting and I’m guessing they don’t really want to bite the many hands that feed. Once comments die it’s just a graveyard of links.
I don’t think it’s based on your contributions. My main account had over 600k comment karma when it was banned.
They are purging anti-corporate perspectives and anti-genocide perspectives, this is becoming clear. They now have a social credit system where they track accounts that upvote posts which are later removed.
They probably want to make the AI training data a bit more pro corporate and right wing.
I said one thing bad about trump saying more h1b visas (they are bad for americans (harder for us to get jobs that give experience) and they dont contribute to the economy they actively take money out and send it home, its not the best or the brightest like they claim) Then temp banned for 3 days, and after that banned once a week for a few days til like 2 months later I got banned. The worst ban was abusing reports, I reported some fd up shit like ppl planning group suicides, doubt they even looked or cared, just banned me for reporting and increased it for complaining.
I promise you if someone plans to off themselves with you they are manipulating you and have no intention of doing it, felt like watching serial killers in action
Ok, remove all military bases from those countries and expel all American soldiers and diplomats. No more sharing intelligence with the u.s, they’re compromised anyways
so…trump and musk want russia to take Ukrain and then all of Europe after that i take it.
Whatever Putin wants, Trump wants.
Trump is a disgusting pervert anyway. He’s been with Epstein and just bends over to Putler. If his knees, small hands, and tiny dick still can handle it, that is.
To me, getting banned from Reddit (without being a dick) it’s a medal of honor. Guess I’ll have to try harder…
Not too hard anymore. Say Luigi or upvote Luigi a day you’re getting the ban hammer.
Done that… https://programming.dev/post/26558225
One Luigi a day, keeps the Spez away.
I went out with a bang. Coincidentally, implying that such things should happen to the Muskrat and pedophile dictator too.
The latter getting a golden pager from Netty the Butcher was my highlight snark. And telling off the idiots at LSC was a good bit of satisfaction for myself.
I miss being able to interact with certain smaller subreddits for particular interests, but that’s about it.
I genuinely don’t know if there’d be enough of a following to see an active Blakes 7 group over here. That’s my biggest loss tbh.
This feels very much like the migration from tiktok to rednote. Hi everyone.
But without the Chinese censorship (as long as you stay away from tankie instances).
I haven’t noticed any censorship yet, but then again, I’m not talking shit about China.
I’ve tested the waters. Lemmy.world likes to delete posts giving one word reasons such as:-
- Civility
- Politeness
- Propo
And I go out of my way not to directly insult anyone.
Good to know! Thanks!
Welcome. And yeah though you might find more communists here than rednote
Tankies are fake commies IMHO
Welcome!
If it’s anything like that, they’ll all head right on back very soon.
I was surprised by the amount of people that went back. Or went back and stayed. Especially considering the welcome message. That shit was insultingly disgusting.
I never used tiktok but went to rednote to see the migration. Stayed on rednote and my algorithm has become three things (1) sexy cosplay girls (2) free Palestine coverage (3) and Chinese food. I’m a simple man I guess.
Mine’s pretty much half cute animals and half politics. 😅
today / last night he confidentley stated that the X cyberattack was “traced” to Ukraine.
he’s just another head of the hydra, the hydra being the transnational crime syndicate that masquerades as the US, Russian, and other governments.
It’s why I’m here. 12 year member, nearly a million in karma, perma-banned for repeating a statement I’d made many times in the past with no repercussions. The first time I repeated it after HitlerPig stole the election, I was fully banned.
It’s happening because Ohanion wants to buy TikTok, and he knows HitlerPig will be personally making the decision, based on who smooched his ass the most, and who paid the biggest bribe. So as a show of good faith, he’s volunteering to make Reddit a member of the Conservative Propaganda Machine.
I hope Reddit goes the way of Digg.
The sweet irony of this is that digg.com is coming back. I’m on the early subscription list for when they finally release it. There’s going to be a point in time where reddit is just 80% bots talking to each other, I bet.
Same here,
