shortly after the article came out talking about how Reddit is bending the knee to Musky’s hissy fit, I received two notifications from Reddit; one, a 7-Day ban for “breaking multiple rules” but not telling me what actually happened, and after sending them an appeal asking what exactly I was banned for, I received the second notification, telling me that I was permanently banned for, again, “breaking multiple rules”.
as far as I’m concerned, I’m finally free.
Sounds like they are panicing if anything
They just told me I incited violence then kicked me out. No elaboration or anything. Now I’m here and finally free
I’ve been banned by reddit many times, but they always coincided with disagreeing with a mod. They don’t need to tell you what rules you broke when it was just a disagreement.
The one time this happened with me was with Worldnews after I told some racist shithead making derogatory, sexist comments against third world women (specifically, the Philippines, where I’m from) to shut up and stick to gardening. Got permabanned from the sub AND a 7 day suspension from Reddit. Racist guy got no punish of course.
So, it seems like this sort of thing commonly happens with big default subs, because I’ve never had a sub ban coincide with a Reddit suspension like that anywhere else.
I once got a banned from a sub for a comment I made in a completely unrelated sub. The Mod saw my comment, didn’t like it, but didn’t have the power to ban me in that sub, so they banned me in theirs.

At least link to the Lemmy community:
I just got a 3 day ban for saying that it’s everyone’s civic duty to doxx anyone they know involved in this current administration’s nazi bullshit.
I still stand by that, and as soon as the ban clears I’m going to be wiping my account and closing it for good. Fuck that place.
I brought attention to some concerning moderation in spaces related to sex (and sexual assault recovery - a lot of subreddits are places for people to find victims to get them to tell their stories for “enjoyment”) and got some sort of IP ban a while back.
Keep in mind there’s circumstantial evidence that Ghislaine Maxwell might have been a power mod too.
Doxxing is against ToS and also just, straight up illegal lawfully in most places around the world, and wouldn’t be acceptable even on Lemmy. So I don’t really see that as an unreasonable ban, even if you had a good reason to say it.
Depends what you mean by “dox” of course. Definitions matter a lot here.
Good, let reddit die. Conversations shouldn’t be profitable.
lol. Cunts.
Correlation doesn’t imply causation
Very true in all things
What a damn minute…
Once upon a time I went to Reddit as a Digg refugee. Now I have come to Lemmy as a Reddit refugee.
Your username just hit me right in the feels
" you didn’t really believe that did you?"
Yes, I fucking did. And now I’m devastated to learn that cute harmless little hippos don’t live in my house. 😭
I miss media literacy Ads like the house hippo
Good. Fuck em.
I mean things could not matter potentially but I left Reddit permanently and came here cause of this.
Echoing this.
They have a price that’s still hundreds of times above their earnings. The stock is comically overvalued. It isn’t crashing and it has nothing to do with Luigi posting. Air is just coming out of an equities market that’s been hyper-inflated since before COVID.
I fear that a manufactured depression is forming that will completely wipe out the remnants of the middle class (workers who own assets).
Seems to be the intent
you need to compare this with the market as a whole. the whole market is dropping and it has nothing to do with this
Pay no attention to the cliff, there are plenty of other gentle slopes around here.
Couldn’t have happened to a nicer company. Cheers.
I gave up the game there after 12 years… of mostly lurking though.
I’m just trying to get permabanned for mentioning Lemmy and sharing my views on billionaires at this point
Same bro I got a three day ban yesterday.
Yeah, they gave me a three day ban a few days ago, so I joined here. I have no plans on going back ever. I uninstalled the reddit app. I had been on that site to some degree for more than half my life.
They gave me one too, but I extended it to perma just to make sure I don’t feel tempted to go back.
As you should
Same lol. I just had to ban evade and say that last patriot comment about amplifying the idiots and supressing the dissenters is not how we should run a democracy. Boom permaban. Do not question reddit moderation policy. It’s worse than luigi.
Losing after siding with a loser. Entirely predictable outcome.
Ooopsie, there goes your money. Not exactly a good idea to cross your community, is it?
Free Luigi.

Fuck Spez, and all that, but really, this chart isn’t much different from nearly every stock for the same time period.
I think that dip has more to do with Trump creating uncertainty in the market overall than any specific Reddit trend/policy.
Also, the uncertainty should have been strong in import export or related companies. Tariffs causing issues, right? Reddit should have been somewhat resistant to that type of speculation.
Kinda…
For comparison, the S&P 500 felt 4% on the period, Nasdaq felt 7%. So 30% is really noteworth, Redddit is one of the stocks pulling the index down. But it’s not alone, and blaming it on any random cause isn’t right.
Yah, I was going to say the same thing. S&P not only dropped much less, it dropped at a different time and slope. S&P dropped in line with when Trump took office and has been relatively flat. Reddit has been on a constant decline since the start of the year.
I agree with the OP that reddit is a dumpsterfire, but when you try to fit reasoning into everything, at some point you come up with something that fits, even though it is nothing but a coincidence.
I seriously doubt investors give two fucks about the content moderation itself
It coincidentally happens concurrently with the purges
It’s not going to be representative unless you compare it to the same cohort - tech stocks.
Which is why they mentionned the nasdaq
Do you mean “fell”?
