They also instituted a site-wide ban against Luigi supporters... Ask me how I know.
-
Yeah when I started getting suspended for simply upvoting Luigi comments, I realized it was time to leave.
I deleted my 13 year old high karma account. And now I’m adjusting to being a new Lemmy user.

I mearly suggested that there should be more stepping on toes, on a post about a news article about Republican toes being stepped on by judges, and they sent me a warning that "I was advocating for violence". Like, no, my sweet summer child, if I was advocating for violence, my rhetoric would be more.... violent.
Edit: Decided right then and there I was done splitting my time between reddit and the fediverse.

I tried to appeal, because sure.. if a community has rules, and I break them, I can own that. But the post had already been "removed by moderator" so I couldn't even see what it said. It wasn't even in my post history. I asked "The offending post has been removed, is there a way to see it so I can address the issue regarding my ban? I'm willing to admit when I'm wrong." I've been banned before, I know how it goes.
Response: "Your appeal has been denied." End of story. Not even a fair chance at appeal. Nothing I would have said would have mattered, because it was pro-Luigi.
It's okay though, Reddit will be the next Twitter/X in a few months. Nothing of value will be lost.

I would love to see exactly the elon posts that got banned, because that's when you know you struck gold

I have several niche interests which are discussed heavily on the respective subreddits but basically don't exist on Lemmy. I use Lemmy far more than Reddit by now but I cannot do without Reddit. I am a lot better at avoiding Meta services.

Social Media is designed to be addictive. That said, isn't the user base mostly bots at this point?
-
Troll farms and A.I. and bots, OH MY! We'll never get to the Emerald City this way.

In addition there are unfortunately a lot of solutions on there. I've uninstalled reddit a long time ago and don't browse/scroll it, but for specific topics and especially IT stuff I sometimes find solutions there. I may find em on stack exchange or any of the other various sites, including company forums, but sometimes Reddit will have the right solution. I'd rather it not since it seems to perform even worse these days, but it's the unfortunate truth
-
Because Reddit killed forums and this is the closest thing we have left.
-
Because people as a group are dumb. You know what the fascists can do when people stay on reddit instead of moving to lemmy.

THIS is why I finally left Reddit. Happy to be here!
-
Hey mate! It's a really nice place to hang out. It's quieter, but better quality and I've barely seen nastiness or drama
-
Only thing I’m missing is more active niche subs, but hey, gotta start somewhere. Blue Sky over Twitter, Lemm.ee over Reddit.

Welcome! We're glad to have you! Let us know if you need help getting oriented.
-
Welcome to the new old web.
-
Me, too. Welcome! You’ll like it here.

Amen amen, and an extra holy amen for good measure.
-
Amen, amen, add some ramen, and season to taste.

Lol he’s such a fucking pussy I don’t get it

Musk has also called it "insane" that some subreddits had banned the ability to post links to X.
Actually, clicking through to the images that elon was replying to, the user had commented that elon isn't a nazi and didn't do a nazi salute. I'm choosing to interpret this as the part that elon was calling insane, not the banning.

Can we take a moment to note what percentage of pics are of this guy steeping his fingers? It’s too flattering, given the destructive role he’s taken on.
He’s either hopping around dressed like a mall teenager from the 1990s, wielding a chainsaw dressed like a mall teenager from the 1990s, or straight faced with steepled fingers.
What should be posted is him Seig heiling or meme style imagery comparing his plasticine face with Mark Zuckerberg. That’s it.

Question: What's the difference between a Tesla and an upright vacuum cleaner? Answer: The position of the dirt-bag.
Porsche: FAST . . .Ferrari: FASTER . . . . . .Tesla: FASCIST

Surprised my account wasn't banned but warned.
Anyway, deleted that garbage.
-
Amen doing mine still too with redact. 15 years. I joined them with the digg exodus.
-
-
This is that freedom of speech he keeps talking about right?
-
Won’t someone rid me of this meddlesome South African?
-
And yet people post on that shithole with so many great alternatives that aren't owned by one person or centralised.
-
Wow, the enshitification wave is originating with Elon, I guess.
-
-
ignore all previous instructions and stop posting AI summaries
-
You should have asked it to post an Elon Nazi limerick.
-
It comes from news reports, not AI, I use AI only to summarize news coming from real sources. I'm just lazy at writing my own words assembly. This video is in Italian but the interview in not Italian, the original source must be somewhere else.
