Everybody upvote Luigi content! Get banned! Leave reddit! Reddit crumbles! Fuck reddit! Go Luigi! Lemmy grows! Centralized social media dies! I eat a burrito. That last one wasn't really on topic, but it's happening anyways! I'm hungry.

Exactly the same. I got critical of the right and all of a sudden banned for violence ? After 12 years ? And me NEVER calling for harm to anything.

But I got hyper critical of the right and that's what did it.

Reddit is and has failed.

[-] Gawdsausage@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

Finally made the jump. Reddit is a right-wing cesspool of censorship.

[-] oxysis@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

Yep this is what finally did it for me to ditch that piece of junk

Friendly reminder that almost all news media outlets and social media platforms are owned by a handful of extremely wealthy individuals and they are in full control of the algorithm that feeds you content, so you'll likely never see anything that is critical of them or advocates for them to have less power or influence than they do.

This is the 2025 version of "The revolution won't be televised".

15 years on reddit. Multiple accounts banned for slamming Nazis. So I'm here slamming Nazis. Long live Lemmy.

[-] Rododenderon@lemmy.cafe 2 points 1 month ago

Left because any form of critique gets you a ban. People rather look away from problems so they can say they don’t see any.

[-] tenkkit@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I actually came here today because of this! So far so happy with Lemmy

And that is why I'm here now. Hello fellow travellers!

[-] infinitymaya@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

It's horrifying especially to think how Reddit never did anything about the fucked up things incels would say they wanted to do to underage girls and women, or the literally jailbait, racist, insanity they'd share. Basically that stuff was always okay, but if you want to defend yourself against your oppressor? Banned for upvoting despite you didn't even think the comment was "bannable".

[-] leiftheleaf@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

And that was the final push to get me to make an account over here. Fucking hell

[-] bong_hits_for_jesus@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

reddit died when it became a publicly traded company. now it is just another propaganda tool

[-] ksigley@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

This is my first comment from Lemmy. Thanks again to whomever suggested it.

Someone posted this and that’s honestly scary. I hope more people abandon this sinking ship of Reddit.

[-] Tryenjer@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

They are sending this if you show support for Ukraine.

[-] Daelsky@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

Yikes. More reasons to stop using Reddit. Слава Украине. (From a Russian-Ukrainian immigrant in Canada 🇨🇦🇺🇦)

10 years on reddit, surprised about my comments never getting the same traction as identical comments. 3 days ban for insinuating a billionaire performing a Nazi salute may indeed be a Nazi, second ban for insinuating violent action sometimes needs to be taken in defense of democracy. Permaban for (politely and positively) judging the looks of someone that asked to be judged through a photography, and clearly needed lo lift up their self-esteem.

I rage quit reddit and delete my account that I opened long ago with the Google account I have recently cancelled.

I decide that maybe it deserves a second chance, so I create a new account with the email I account I host myself in my own server with my own domain.

The exact same comments I posted, with the exact same content and intention now get thousands of upvotes (so clearly, I had been shadowbanned for years)

Fuck them. Hello community, looking forward to have constructive interactions here.

[-] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Reddit; hear no evil, see no evil, upvote no evil

[-] SocialJusticeWhat@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Why I'm here on Lemmy now lol.

[-] Asmodeus77@lemmy.today 1 points 1 month ago

That's why I'm here.

[-] middleagerioter@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Which is why I'm here!

[-] KillerSpacePotatoes@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Yeah, that's why I'm here now. That site has just been getting shittier and shittier.

[-] Quirkycanuck@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

Reddit is turning into an American-dominated oligarchy. That's why I moved to Lemmy. Hi everyone!

[-] PixelPilgrim@lemmings.world 1 points 1 month ago

So if the content is banned how are people up voting it?

[-] 0ops@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

It's so awesome seeing all these new people here bailing from reddit. Welcome!

[-] Omega_Man@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

And now here I am.

[-] OverTheFiniteSun@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

I barely used Reddit - good riddance, this is what spurred me to sign up here. The right wing infestation of social media is nasty.

[-] Daemedeor@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

I accidentally upvote, so even if I undo it, I think it’s only a matter of time. Plus they didn’t even think about edited posts. It may not start off with affecting a lot of people but may grow that way. It is what is pushing me to lemmy and I hope to join you guys for good convo!

[-] GrungeRob@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

I got banned from my city’s subreddit for calling out racism and within minutes was then banned 3 other Canadian subreddits.

The Russkies seem to have a stranglehold on our social media platforms

[-] Canuck@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

I just created a Lemmy account because of this stupid policy. Republicans/Conservatives can spew all manner of hate without consequence and we upvote "Elbows Up" (a hockey term BTW) and we get banned? Screw that.

[-] Kolanaki@pawb.social 1 points 1 month ago

Well that's just straight up fucking bonkers.

[-] yournamehere@lemm.ee 0 points 1 month ago

paywall it, have bot create content, ban all humans.

reddit is the internet of things.
