Speedrunning a permaban on my 15 year old account. How many days do you think it will take?

    Talk about the thought police! I saw it coming for awhile, but past me from a decade ago is shocked that Reddit has come to this.

    Fucking cowards sending out the messages from an account that you can’t even reply to? Are they also sending out these messages to people upvoting /r/Conservative content? What about/r/Conspiracy?

      Not even really cowardice when you consider how bare bones their staff is. Even if they gave a shit about users, real monetization costs money and Reddit hates spending.

    They’re scared. Spez knows his neck is on the line in a more literal fashion than ever.

    One of my buddies was recently complaining about “free speech” on Reddit.

    Told him it’s a company and not the government, so free speech doesn’t count there. He hated that.

    Told him if he didn’t like it to use Bluesky…he’s a staunch conservative…lol

      We don’t need fascists and their sympathisers on any social media. You shouldn’t have told him about it.

          Here’s to hoping your full ban comes soon! I haven’t gotten mine yet. They reaaally want my ad money.

    hey so i started looking at a new place because I’m tired of reddit and the people on it… My upvotes began just disappearing. I hate to be that person, but I think I was shadowbanned. I didn’t even know that was a real thing until reddit. When the little reddit guy’s back is turned on your icon you’re in some kind of restricted mode. Anyway, i noticed my upvotes weren’t showing and someone else kinda fiddled with it with me to see what was going on. I don’t know if this is related to luigi but it’s some weird nonsense.

      You sir or ma’am were shadowbanned. They want your views, not your voice. Basically you are ad revenue to them, if they ban you they lose that sweet juicy $.02 from their advertiser. They want two cents from their advertiser, just not from you.

    Please let them implode.

    I want Lemmy to have niche content. I’m tired of being a bitter asshole about politics and news on here. I want to gleefully distract myself while my country burns, not be ultra depressed about it because its constantly in my face.

      yeah i always like the beginning of a new platform in the first few years where everyone is just having fun before the hoards come and commercialization happens.

        I don’t know how likely commercialization is on a platform developed by communists. Seems kind of unlikely.
