19 yrs on Reddit, permanently banned.
(lemmy.world)
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?
Won't work. They have backups of everything you have ever done on there. They will just restore the backups and then ban you so you can't do that again. It's the bargain you made when you created an account with them.
You are not deleting your account, only to return with a new account. Reddit has become a cesspool and it would be a wise decision to leave with all your data.
You may corrupt your data before leaving so it overwrites the backup. Someone used an auto app that replaced all their posts with random gibberish. It took about a week, this is something you might explore if it addresses your concerns.
I did the same. It was all restored within a couple of weeks. I've since done it again twice and just checked - it's all back.
