Also hi there I’m new here
Welcome in! Enjoy your stay.
All I’ll say is that Lemmy is smaller than Reddit, so naturally a lot of convos default to politics and tech.
Because of that though, you’ll be exposed to potentially new ideas regarding both. So be open minded! But also know that you can block users, communities, and instances if you find them unbearable.
Cheers
The “one thing” he said:
Edit: Kinda funny how He’s flipping the bird backwards here though.
Yeah I did, I said nazi’s can go fuck themselves. That got me a warning. Then I said anti-vaxxers are idiots and that forced vaccinations might be a good idea. When I said that they said I was promoting violence and that got me banned. Seriously, fuck Reddit.
I see r/unvaccinated has gotten its filthy infested little fingers into Spez’s brain.
I posted a gif of Luigi from Luigi’s Mansion and got a warning for promoting violence or whatever. So I just deleted my account and migrated.
How do you guys even get banned? I’m straight up posting AI-generated suicide instructions nowadays, and I get more engagement and less shadow removals than I had before.
I got a 6 day ban for calling out people acting like Nazis so…
The irony. You’re posting on a comm in the most ban-happy instance with an account registered on the other most ban-happy instance.
Lemmy is fine. We just need more users for content.
There are enough already, IMO. It’s stable, the instances I use are populated enough to sustain themselves and have interesting discussion.
*good users. We don’t welcome Trump supporters
Yea, thankfully the fediverse by nature attracts communists.
fake reports on your profile which reddit just won’t check if they make sense:
It can happen here too
Reddit is going crazy with the bans. A perma ban can result from something as simple as saying something like “I hope the consequences of not vaccinating are more deeply suffered by anti-vaxxers than by people who are not vaxxed from an allergy or something”. After all, that constitutes “hoping for violence/death”.

I wonder if it’s because Reddit is now a prime resource for AI scraping, and they don’t want it to repeat that anti-vaxxers should suffer more to their cooker clientele 🤔
This is why you use AI to destroy AI.
After I was perma-banned, I used a bot to re-open my past posts and replace my original content with AI generated garbage.
Salt the fields upon which AI grows.
I was banned for showing “extreme indifference” about Kissinger taking a dirt nap.
Reddit really testing the limits of Dead Internet Theory
I was banned for a while, saying that NATO countries should declare war on Russia and kill Putin. That was a political news Reddit, and the topic was about Russia’s Shadow Fleets and sabotage operations. War, the consideration and advocation, is an inherently political thing.
Reddit would say that Churchill wanting to fight Nazi Germany is advocating for violence. While technically true, it misses the fact that sometimes words cannot broker peace nor civility.
I can’t believe they banned me for what they banned me for too. After 16 years on the platform. Fuck em
I have only one account left on reddit 😕
What was the reason though? Personally I never used Reddit. So I don’t know about them
I got banned for telling a legit Nazi to fuck himself up the ass with a cactus, no lube.
Banned for threatening violence and hate speech apparently.
Yeah, my initial main account ban was because I said “if you try to have a monkey as a pet, you deserve to be bitten by it” on a video of a guy who had a monkey ripping shit up in his apartment and that bites him on the hand at one point.
That apparently counts as inciting violence rather than y’know implying that people shouldn’t own fucking monkeys which I felt was pretty clear given the context.
Evidently my angry sounding unban request was not well received.
Hahaha, sorry for laughing but reddit ia such a joke.
Yeah it’s ridiculous.
This place:
“I hate you and your dumb. Yay, my opinion is finally seen!”
