Many many years and ass loads of karma…
But apparently LIKING posts can get you banned now. What a shit show.
Clearly they’re butthurt that you didn’t fellate Trump or Musk or some other such drain clog.
Reddit constantly pushing conservative to the front page was a sign
r/conservative is just a rebrand and refugee camp of r/thedonald , mildly adjusted to accept the new wave “conservatives” across the world, like Supporters of Fidesz (Hungary, Orban), RN (LePen, France), Canadian Maple MAGA, the Russian Mafia State and their blood drunk Nazi Z-Tards, and all of those Joe Rogan / Jordan Peterson / Ben Shapiro types.
Actual Conservatism is dead. its just Nazis and Fascists who hijacked the term for better brand imaging.
I got banned for pointing out that ICE are a human trafficking terrorist gang
If you ever wonder why nobody calls it terrorism when America does it, it is because people are not allowed to do so.
They ban facts now? Wow what a dump, I hope everyone that works there is time-teleported into an Auschwitz shower in 1944.

What did you do?
Not op but I got perma banned for fighting with people who were defending massive pedophile Dr disrespect. They were arguing that “it was legal that means it’s okay”. I pointed out that the US is fucked and certain states have consent laws at 16. Legally he could fuck a 16 year old. However that doesn’t change the fact that he’s a pedophile scumbag regardless of legality.
I was then banned for “child sexual content” :)
Sounds right.
Reddit has gotten so pathetic. Sad to see it fall so hard. If it was like this in 2012 I would have never signed up
I pointed out that the US is fucked and certain states have consent laws at 16
Yeah, that’s actually the average age worldwide
Not defending Dr Diddles, mind you, but the US is actually better than a lot of places thanks to having parts where it’s 17 or 18 (and… Worse, depending on where you look)
I tend to think that 16yo is fine so idc, they do their things
However I still think Disrespect is a moron (for other reasons)
Going to get downvoted but I’m making my part by de-echo chamberifying lemmy
This is like the defining case of “just because it’s legal doesn’t make it okay.” An 18 year old and a 16 year old is one thing. It’s very different when it’s a 30-something year old and a 16 year old. That’s like a high school senior trying to get with a 12 year old.
There’s a massive power imbalance in a relationship like that where the 30-something has basically total control. Even a 30-something with a college kid has issues imo, let alone a kid who’s a sophomore or junior in high school. That’s some Quamire from Family Guy shit. “I love high school girls. I get older, they stay the same age.”
Half your age plus seven is the rule of thumb that I’ve heard. At 18, that means the lowest you should be dating is 16. At 32, it’s 23. Etc.
Also, echo chambers are good, actually, and you can’t change my mind. Life isn’t supposed to be a constant argument, and the criticism of surrounding yourself with people who generally agree with you is a tactic that’s been used to prevent people from simply cutting toxicity out on social media platforms.
Plus there are some things unworthy of argument. The existence of trans people, not an argument. Fucking a 16 year old as a grown adult is fucked up, not an argument. Holders of these anti-truths are just bad people covering their own failings
DE ECHO CHAMBER LEMMY VIA COMING OUT AS A PEDOPHILE YOURSELF. WHAT A TAKE.
ew
Not enough pedophiles here 😔It’s just your POV. I’d say that pedophile refers to children, and I don’t consider a 16yo person to be a child. Some can be mature enough, although it might be rare and should be handled case by case, instead of making a stupid generalization.
Jesus Christ. No they cannot. She isn’t mature for her age, your just a pedophile making excuses to justify your attraction. That makes you a predator. Ew
Sure. You know better than everyone. Congrats. Doesn’t have to be a “her” btw…
Funny that I got called a pedophile as well when I was a minor. Fun times. Being with someone way older isn’t always bound to end badly, provided the adult isn’t a bad person (which isn’t easy in the world we live in) and that both understand the risks and adopt the right posture.
I also know other people who have been in a similar situation. Sometimes it went okay, sometimes not.
“I am a multi gender focused predator”
Ew.
Someone should start Blueit. See cuz they blew it, get it?
Top tier pun
Just awful, but I thought it was right there, you know?
And nothing of value was lost
Hello everyone. You’re not alone. I got banned like for 4-5 times, using local Ukrainian words that may look like slurs, but they aren’t.
I got unbanned, but I am still too scared to write anything about politics on Reddit. I want a working account there for IT questions.
Make another account then. I have a shit posting account for making comments I know will be dicey. Reddit mods are fat slobs don’t let them stop you from living your dreams.
they will detect your alternate account through fingerprinting you
it’s where I am currently, unable to use any of my 100% wholesome and positively contributing accounts because I shared the opinion of “Oh no, anyways” on a burning Tesla dealership post, got banned from world news with no explanation, asked for elaboration and did not receive it, and then continued to post in that sub with another account.
did I ban evade? yes. did I first attempt to find out why I was banned? yes. was I ignored and thus continued to participate with other accounts, being careful to say nothing even close to provocative with those accounts? yes.
didn’t matter. they identified it as the same account, they banned it.
I’ve been treated the same way, lost about 7 accounts each over 12 years old because some mod didn’t like me telling off an incel and from there sent it to admins and from there it’s been repeated bans and shadowbans.
I am done with reddit, I’ve seen behind the curtain in my time there, I know how bad it really is. The whole platform is now an AI training-bed and in some communities more than half the users appear to be bots. Very clever, very well-disguised, but you can tell if you check their history. They want to be able to control large-scale narratives and it’s working.
But if anyone wants to try to keep fighting the bot army, you can create a new account by deleting all your reddit cookies and browsing history, resetting your modem for a minute, then making a new account with a new email. (Use Gmail or another name-brand on, they now shadowban accounts made from disposable emails.)
Also, do not use a VPN ever. Instant permanent shadowban, and you have to start all over.
From there you just need to establish some karma history so you can post. Memes and other content-grind subreddits let even new accounts last I checked.
If you don’t want your account banned immediately, do not make political opinions, do not argue with anyone, do not sass reddit even through they deserve far worse. Don’t reply to yourself or your alt accounts, they can now tell immediately. Do not report anyone, they now will use reporting as an excuse to ban you if they decide they don’t like you.
This is too much effort. I’ll wait and see if the Digg reboot is worth using.
I just found out about this too, but on Samsung phones you can install an app on the “secure folder” and that’s basically another device ID so even if you install the app there it doesn’t ban you.
Recently changed my phone, and while my new phone is completely reddit free, I tried this “secure folder” thing on my old phone(installed the official app via apk but patched to remove ads) that already was banned with a completely new account and so far it’s working well, I’ve left a few comments and such and haven’t been shadowbanned.
Now I’ll probably won’t post or do much on it anyways, I’m committing to use it less and less, but I can’t really confidently say that Lemmy fills out all communities as Reddit does
That’s good to know, if I ever really, really need to throw shade at some comment I see on Reddit i’ll give that a shot… but honestly, I’m also mostly clean and free from “using” and probably will avoid it so I don’t backslide into that fetid mess. I find I don’t miss it that much anymore and have become a LOT more productive without having those comment sections to scroll every day and every lunch break.
Yeah me too. Honestly I like knowing that I CAN use it if needed, specially if there’s an obscure IT question I might need help with. But having it on a whole other phone let’s me not want to use it because it would mean having a whole other device to take care of battery and ughh you lost me there , so that’s my compromise, I keep it on my desk turned off until needed
Honestly I like knowing that I CAN use it if needed
I love how reddit’s social section is now regarded the same way as a product like condoms or guns or narcan.
How do you patch to remove ads?
Get the apk from apk mirror and then patch it using ReVanced manager
I recognize this as English.
I’ll have to look into everything you said here. I may be old, but I’m always game to learn new tricks. Thanks.
Reddit has streaks now??

I mean back when duolingo has discussions or what they called it, you might write nasty stuff. But now, imagine being banned for the wrong translation.
I haven’t used duolingo for a few weeks because my hack to have infinite hearts broke again and I’m too lazy to put in the effort even tho it’s not that difficult actually
I’m gonna be real, Duolingo is literally only good for motivation and easy vocab review. It has been years since I used it, but the best advice I got on that website was when forums still existed and people told me that the translations for JP were shit and to learn somewhere else, which is probs why those forums got deleted.
If you have to use hacks to not be bored/deal with the bullshit, then just leave man. It’s not worth the bird begging you to come back. Find stuff online, YT (unfortunately) is your friend for resources.
I use Busuu for Fr*nch these days.
Yep, they want you to login everyday FOR MULTIPLE YEARS
Well, I did that on my own to be honest. Not anymore, though, lol.
Same, I’m glad to be out of the cesspool.
Gamified social media with streaks and fomo notifications for daily scrolling or posting or whatever is hilariously bad and transparent.
I’d love to go on lemmy full time, but it’s just so much smaller, the libertarian scene is a rather sparce, there’s no community for dumbphones, and the leopard gecko sublemmy is abandoned :c
Lemmy. The support group for burned reddit veterans.
We were there. We put in thousands of hours of work. Years of moderating. Free work. Content creators. People who commented. Voted. All that karma …
All gone cause you upvoted an anti trump or musk post. Or maybe you upvoted a photo of a tessler burning.
Maybe you didn’t think Luigi should get the death penalty.
Don’t worry brother. Upvote what you want. Be free with the rest of us.

I wonder if the reason is because 50501 started on Reddit and they are determined to not let it happen again.
They bent the knee. Hard.
Reddit censorship is out of control. I got a warning about ‘violence’ today. My crime? I reported that the guy who is currently spamming every Australian mobile phone with messages about out the ridiculous Trumpet of patriots party is getting spammed back. I said “couldn’t happen to a nicer fascist”. Ffs.
I recently deleted my active, 16-year-old, account after being told I was inciting violence simply by commenting that a particular GOP senator had himself to blame for an issue he was trying to pin on others.
Reddit banned all the people that made it fun, now the only people left are the boring ones and bots lol
Won’t be long before it becomes the next 9gag
And porn
Even that is getting culled. Reddit recently nuked r/nsfw which is like the OG porn subreddit. Apparently the Reddit execs learned nothing from the demise of Tumblr.
Can we talk about how screwed up that streak notification is? Let’s encourage people who show signs of unhealthy usage of the platform to further their addiction?
You have a 300 day streak of using heroin, don’t stop now!
My account just got suspended for mocking JD Vance in a joke thread. I appealed and got a permaban in response.
Mine was suspended for bullying or some shit because I told Mrs Guyliner to get fucked when she was taking her little vacation to Greenland

Hey look! It’s Reddit’s future! Full of censorship, just like the CCP!
