I just got a 3 day ban. Here I am allowed to say that CEO assassination is basically self defense, right?
That sent me here as well. What a great way for them to advertise for a decentralized information exchange!
Just signed up here. I had my account flagged for upvoting on Reddit. Needless to say I was POed but so far I’m liking it here
Tipping point for me. Leaving Reddit for good.
This is the final straw for me. Today, after years of accelerating decline, I deleted my Reddit account and made my Lemmee lurking official. My only regret is abandoning the the good people at Narwhal who always made Reddit better, but never had a chance to save it from its corporate-aspiring overlords. Good-bye!
Reddit is also banning and warning people for UPVOTING “violent” comments (or what they now consider violent and somehow right wing subs don’t get the same censorship applied; or we’d see them bitch about it). It’s now a dystopia.
Made my first Lemmy account after this bullshit! Took a split second to figure out, but Lemmy seems super rad so far!
I wonder how Nintendo is feeling about their IP being moderated like that.

Meanwhile conspiracy and conservative subreddits still exist…
It’s official folks, Reddit admins have actually lost their fucking minds.
Just commenting to say I deleted Reddit yesterday in favor of Lemmy! Happy to be here 🥰 #freeluigi
Quite literally signed up for lemmy just now cause of this. So many of the sites that helped make the internet boring are committing self harm, twitter, fb, and now reddit - the old “decentralization” arguments were kind of boring to me but now I ache for the old internet and gosh darn it if the billionaires are making the best case against themselves.
This happened to me for posting “Italian Plumbers Unite!” I got a PERMANENT BAN! I appealed and they denied it.
What are they afraid of?
What’s wild to me is apparently an endless supply of people are willing to work for free for Reddit as a moderator
