That's more or less why I left reddit and came to lemmy.
This is in fact my very first post here. :)

Same. Just created my account
I think we chose well.
I got here because they killed Apollo 🫶🏻 never forget
I use Voyager now for lemmy
Welcome, fellow ex redditor.
Thanks :)
"Free speech absolutist" 🤣🤣🤣
Reddit died June 2023
I don't know why people are still playing with the corpse
I agree and haven't returned but lemmy hasn't hit critical mass yet.... Like I don't recall a post with over a hundred replies. Reddit used to have over a thousand on every reply on the first page.
How many of those thousands are actual good comments though? Last time I was there, I swear the majority of comments were from bots reposting the same comments that were in previous threads. It felt peak dead-internet.
It's why I came here...
Man he’s such a little fucking snowflake isn’t he?
Which one, (fuck) spez or the Nazi saluting trust fund baby?

I got a lifetime IP ban on Reddit for saying "Fuck Elon Musk all the way to hell" - so fuck Reddit, fuck DOGE, and especially fuck Elon.
I got mine for hoping Elon's penis pump would explode and burn him to death from the dick up.
You paint a beautiful picture 😂
To Hell, you say?
I’m old enough to remember when Elon released “the twitter files” in an attempt to demonstrate how the federal government supposedly exerted egregious pressure on private media in violation of first amendment right.
Fucking hell I didn't know that! He just believes what suits him
My God they've pissed off Hitler
I'm glad I got banned, Reddit is going downhill fast
That...should be intolerable for redditors, you'd think this would finally make them leave.
I tested just writing "Luigi" and was banned for a day. I deleted my 10+ years account with over 200k karma. I was so attached to that profile, but I promptly deleted it after being banned. Fuck these billionaires telling us what's ok to say.
Kinda pisses me off that this joke of a clown has this much a authority.
I got banned from reddit for saying that netenyahu should be put on trial and hanged for war crimes.
After their censorship of me for saying a reasonable thing (a war criminal made to face justice) I will say I have altered my opinion. He should be tied up, simply read his charges and then unceremoniously shot in the head.
I was banned for saying traitors to our nation should be publicly executed. Which is our actual law. So that’s confusing
I said justice would've seen Trump tried on January 7th and hung on January 8th. That got me a soft ban. Then I said kill all Nazis but six and save them for pallbearers. That got me a permaban. Tearing the bandaid off on 12 years of comments and posts hurt but so far I like the attitude of Lemmy a lot better. It feels like real conversation instead of just shitposting and trolling.
Fun Fact: you should be wiping all comments and posts on every socmed platform at LEAST once a month.
Which reminds me that I am overdue on THIS one.
My permaban came from a post about DOGE. They deleted the comment, permabanned me, and wouldn't let me see what I even commented. They said it was "encouraging violence" but hell no, I was making sure not to say anything like that. Wonder if I just insulted Elon and reddit decided to finally get rid of me.
Ya. The ol' "encouraging violence". Pretty much the same thing as "national security"
I guess time to bail for good?
Probably, yeah. I made new accounts often but my oldest would probably have been 2010. But I've given up once I found lemmy aside from occasionally going back to help people come over when I know reddit has further agitated its existing base.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
