No warning, not even a "Don't do it again email" - I had a work account, that was logged in on my works laptop, I made a comment critical of Netanyahu, and the Gaza genocide, which got that account banned from /pics. This was months ago, then I made a comment on pics, on my main account. That's it, gone, banned.

I even have another spare account, from 2008, logged in to that, that's banned too. FFS!

No luck on appeals, so I guess no more reddit, ever again. Anyone managed to get around this?

I just picked up another permanent ban in one of the Ukraine subreddits on a post that showed a Russian solder walking with a crutch. Someone was pointing out hat it looked like he was faking it. I replied something like "Well, a drone will probably sort things about either way". Apparently this is supporting violence now.

I've been on reddit since 2009. The place sure has gone fucking downhill. It was bad enough in the_donald days when the admins went so far out of their way and up their own butt to accommodate those fascists, but now this fucking AI moderation is just stupid.

I've lost about three accounts in the past year or two because things that used to be well within the norms are now considered harrassment. I'm fine with polite conversation, but jesus fucking christ they have gone absolutely overboard.

I'm waiting a couple of days before I create a new account, and again backing off my participation there - at this point to just my local city subreddit and one other that I was moderating. But that's it. Fuck the rest of reddit.
