Feel that pain this year would have been my 10th year on Reddit. I was permanently banned last June for saying I hope the libs of TikTok monster would get hit by a bus. It’s still blows I can’t post or comment on anything. I was part of a close nit group on Reddit involving a car subreddit and now it sucks to see people commenting on where I am and what happened.

Make a new account and tell them.
They track Machine ID and IP. They just auto ban any new accounts.
Try using VPN and different browser or delete local reddit data. Not sure if reddit allows VPNs anymore for account creation though.
I tried to like Reddit but every time I tried posting something I thought was original or thoughtful it would get auto deleted by a bot for not including the right "flair" or some other stupid shit.
Posting in r/showerthoughts was impossible.
Questions about dark matter removed from r/space
Lots more like that.
Showerthoughts was one I tried. I don't remember specifics but I tried a couple times to post actual thoughts I had in the shower and they got insta-banned by a bot so I just gave up.
Don't miss Reddit. I got my 10 year account permanently banned for making a complaint about a mod who temp banned me for no perceivable reason.
Eat a sack of damp turds Reddit.
Oh, you can get banned here. It's not like this is like a place of free speech. It's just that the internet is kind of created little pockets of echo chambers. It is what it is. And like it was always going to be like that anyways. I just like it that it's not monetized by corporations that are bombing the shit out of children.
only place I've ever been banned from here was not paying attention to which "channel" I was in since I dont fully understand how Lemmy works, and I ended up posting a comment to a thread I saw come up on the main page of lemmy.world when it was actually a lemmy .ml link, and people over there, most of them dont take too kindly to you insulting their Russian overlords,
.ml by and large are too ignorant to recognize the Russians aren't their Socialist idols, they're just a Capitalist oligarchic mafia state. So you make one comment that is percieved as being targetting against the Putin regime and you're automatically assigned the label of a Pro Western NATOpill schill
But if any one instance pulls reddit stuff ppl will notice and can leave without losing the whole site and infrastructure
The idea behind lemmy (and every other decentralized platform) is not that you can't get banned. The idea is that f the mods of one instance decde to go crazy, are bought by malicious people, or if there is an hostile takover (like what happened to freenode), then the network isn't compromized, and ideally there are plenty of other instances with a moderation policy you agree with and where you can recreate an account
lemmy.world mods have already shown they're not interested in moderating fairly.
I jumped ship from that awful instance when they decided to block piracy communities.
Would love to see them fade into obscurity.
Oh this is me. Got banned from Reddit and am on lemmy fulltime.
Similar happened to me. You cannot say there is genocide going in Palestine. If u say that are temp banned for a day, then 3 day then permanently banned.
There will still be an amount of censorship on lemmy, it might just be on the opposite opinion of yours, so you won’t notice it. I’m pretty sure we’re slowly turning into an echo chamber as well
Absolutely! Especially ~~communities~~ instances like lemmy.ml. I just got banned for criticizing certain aspects of Communism. No alternate opinions are allowed apparently...
That's a Lemmy feature. Hexbear and ML run how they want, world runs how they want. If you're pissing someone off some place enough to get banned, it's probably not the best place for you and best to leave them to their echo chamber. If you go wild, you can stand up your own instance and ban any instances you don't like.
If someone wants to make a safe-space echo-chamber, they can totally do it.
I canceled my reddit pro, or reddit+ account, whatever the f*ck it is called, and the ads, the ads.... Ads that look like posts, or comments. It's almost making me 100% Lemmy too.
Lately I'm seeing a lot of this on old accounts
I had a few alt accounts from a decade ago that I'd sometimes used to get something from that site but over the past year the all got banned for no reason because I literally didn't even post with them.
Im guessing that Reddit wants to get rid of those older users that still remember how great it was
They wantll Nu-reddit user, aka the ones that are ignorant of reddits history
Yeah I've been wondering if I actually got banned because I used old.reddit and a hacked Reddit mobile app.
