I, honestly, never used Reddit that much anyways. It's algorithms were made to keep me on the site at all costs and I never liked that.

[-] AwkwardBroccolli@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 months ago

I got perma banned because a power tripping moderator of unitedstatesofIndia had me banned.

[-] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 2 months ago

I just like Lemmy more.

[-] wreckingball4good@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

I hate reddit. Love lemmy.

[-] pec@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

I'm boycotting American products.

[-] madcaesar@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I only read two sub reddits via Firefox. (mostly for sports highlights / news)

I never post or interact anymore, I'm giving them zero content or engagement and always with all ad blockers / pi hole on max blast.

I was on reddit over 10 years, but once sync went I was done.

I don't think I'm banned. I left with the API Exodus. I do like Lemmy more now because of more free speech and control over what information I see

[-] Ledericas@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

They have been banning inactive accounts, apparently some were getting hacked by trolls

[-] urandom@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Not banned. I deleted my account myself some time back

[-] no_nameGhost@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

Closed reddit account and loving Lemmy! Here to stay. 😀

[-] capuccino@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Never have been.

[-] demunted@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 months ago

Banned off r/technology for no good reason. Reddit is a doom scroll and I wanted to try something else. I still use Reddit for tech discussions as it's got a lot more users.

[-] AstroLightz@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Dont have an account on reddit, so not banned. I do lurk from time to time though.

[-] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 1 points 2 months ago

Permanently banned for asking a really stupid question. I was having a big self-hate episode, and asked the question to affirm that I deserve something.

[-] Disinformation_Bot@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

I still have a reddit account, but I find Lemmy to be a freer space that feels less overrun by bots and power mods. It also doesn't seem to cycle through posts as fast, making it more of a discussion-forward space rather than a black hole of doomscrolling.

[-] Stomata@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

Never used reddit

[-] Weirdfish@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I bailed over the whole API thing, bacon reader was reddit for me.

Now lemmy is the only social media I use, and my life is better for it.

[-] ArsonButCute@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago

Never been banned anywhere except Facebook.

I make a new throwaway every time I go to reddit so Idk maybe I've been banned but it's pretty dumb to ban someone who's making new accounts with proxies every time.

[-] stinerman@midwest.social 1 points 2 months ago

I've never had a Reddit account so I guess that I've never been banned, technically.

[-] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 1 points 2 months ago
[-] teawrecks@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

i banned my subconcious thoughts as if pre-deporting them.

[-] NightCrawlerProMax@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I think most people have joined Lemmy cuz they were banned on Reddit. Probably ended up here after searching for “Reddit alternatives” after they were banned.

[-] HellsBelle@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

Banned but also like Lemmy more.

[-] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I'm making the transition. I use both, for now.

[-] rabber@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

Permabanned for inciting violence but I wasn't

for me it was when the ads started appearing between comments. it was a step too far and i bounced.

[-] KeenFlame@feddit.nu 1 points 2 months ago

I like lenmy more

[-] early_riser@lemmy.radio 1 points 2 months ago

I find it interesting that there's a mix of commenters complaining that Reddit is at opposite ends of the political spectrum.

[-] monarch@preferred.social 1 points 2 months ago

I just like lemmy more and the community around it just seems much more bearable. I don't constatly think I hate lemmings like I thought about redditors when I was on reddit.

[-] sinceasdf@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Never been banned but I stopped commenting or even logging in on Reddit years ago, I always used r/all almost exclusively and they ruined that algorithm multiple times over. I could never really tell if I was talking to a bot or not when commenting either.
