Just curious
Total bans for upvoting anti-nazi posts.
I saw once a post that called for killing Musk. If you mean that kind of anti-nazi post then a ban is justified.
Gee I wonder if that’s the kind of post they were talking about?
🤦♀️
derp-a-derp
Let’s just kill everyone we disagree with. And we’re totally not like Hitler.
If somebody tosses up nazi salutes, they shouldn’t be surprised when people want to put them six feet under with the other nazis.
Bro who cares? Thanks for this post to remind me to unsub this dumb com
lol, your bad for subbing, honestly. I’m leaving too, but I was still subscribed to a community about a site I hate. Not sure why we did that, ngl.
Yeah I don’t get why I even did. Maybe just subbing to popular ones? Idk. Glad I inspired you
Maybe it was back in the day when we were angry with Reddit and wanted to get away but still keep an eye on the development.
At this point I’m over it. I don’t care or think about Reddit, ever. 🙂✨
You’re welcome! Have a good day
😾
I stopped using it entirely but the top 3 reasons for doing so are:
-
The admin staff had been increasingly showing signs of Nazi sympathizing if not outright bigoted bullshit of their own.
-
They killed 3rd party apps, which was the only way to really use the site on a phone in my opinion as the official app sucks and the mobile layout also sucks.
-
A bit of Eternal September. The more mainstream it became, the more watered down and samey everything became. Niche communities were active, but often filled with the same 3 fucking things posted ad infinitum. In addition to the bigger a sub grew, the more restrictive it became in what was allowed to the point that only a few special users (often the mods) were the only ones posting that were ever approved to post by their automod deletion system.

The platform is apparently run by people who are pro-nazis so that’s fun. They pulled the trigger on Banning me for an incredibly flimsy reason.

I just got banned by saying ‘Ivermectin’ (literally, that was the whole comment) in a thread on /r/askhistory about weird drug usage by Hitler.
The reason: Harrasment (3 day ban).
Power tripping staff, thats it. Its getting closer and closer to fascism. Karma farming and echo-chambering.
And stupid sensitive snowflakes reporting everything they don’t like because butthurt
Geez what a bunch of insufferable twats
The ai that shadowbans and bans users, as well as the admins who seem to absent from all interactions :/
The worst thing is ppl talking about it on lemmy, teeheehee.
But fr, I left 2 yrs ago, still will use it if a search brings me there, but dont really log-on, and haven’t scrolled it 2 yrs.
Kinda weird how popular it is now too.- Bot posts
- Karma Farmers
- No organic interaction in comments
admins
mods
usersthe top 2 are the problem, not the users(unless they are troll/bots)
I don’t really think about reddit anymore.
Shadowbans by, what looks like, AI automation
Yep and it’s just not fucking working
Reddit is pretty much read-only for me now. Looks like many of you are the same because I don’t save or share to my browser very many anymore. Peeps ain’t writing stuff (of interest to me) on Reddit anymore.
That’s an excellent point. You can’t have a friendly chat or interesting exchange of views there no more. There’s just too many bots, too much nastiness
I’ve been getting lots of warnings that I’m not writing book-length replies and so I can’t submit a response for seven minutes, or something.
It’s just not worth it, usually, so I don’t.
same only read only.
AI moderation and the complete inability to send an appeal to a human.
Shitty app.
Shitty web interface.
Corpo policies.I’m fully onboard with all the critique listed here, but I’m afraid I do still use R on a daily basis. Why? Because of sheer (and original / non-bot) traffic, I guess.
This tends to mean that highly-useful, knowledgeable, expert-level commentary is still produced there in significant quantities, even if it does mean sifting hard through the dreck to find it. And that stuff can be hugely useful to me.
That said, I feel like Lemmy has a significantly higher signal-to-noise ratio, so it doesn’t have to be remotely as big as R in order to achieve the same level of usefulness, and indeed, L is certainly useful right here and right now.
But I guess the other thing is that most of the smaller and niche communities here could really use a membership boost. Maybe with the next reddit screw-up, that will happen, hehe.

Let’s hope
I feel like we should do word of mouth. Get people who want a space like Reddit used to be to k.ow we exist.
