Reddit has been compromised by the oligarchs.

I just left after twenty years. I warned them about overly censoring in their research calls but I guess they didn’t want to listen

Personally I couldn‘t care less about moderator outrage. Just read the room already and leave. No amount of kicking and screaming will take the platform off the hands of technofascists. You‘re clearly not valued there so why would they care if you cry about their decisions? Just grow a spine already.

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

Trump committed treason on jan 6th, 2021. That is enough reason to hang him, and yet he still breathes.

[–] misteloct@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago

You can't just cite established law without thinking about what Musk/Trump think. What do you think this is, a democracy?

Reddit is becoming such a shit hole anyway, the site barely functions on mobile browser now, half the time it has API errors or fails to load.

Add "brown nosing spinless wimp" to the list of acceptable descriptors of Spez

[–] Burninator@lemm.ee 24 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Fuck u/spez

This works here right

Moderators are outraged but will forget that in a few days and won't leave reddit anyway.

i feel like musk is going to demand reddit get rid of old reddit next because it's too nice a layout

No shit, that explains Reddits noticeable change in moderation after the election.

Musk is such a free speech Nazi.

[–] PerfectDark@lemmy.world 28 points 1 week ago (7 children)

I left moderating some significant subs back when with the 3rd party app protests, but did return to Reddit after that to start my own.

But now, since early December I'm done-done.

My account has been deleted (as with Discord), and I'm all in on the fediverse. Seeing the proposed changes (the concept of a paid sub that Spez is so adament about?), I just had enough. And the more news of Reddit I see, the happier I am I did.

Most of my daily time now is spent on Mastodon, but I am here every few days trying to share a post or two.

Remember that interview with Don Lemon where Musk got heated over censorship?

Me too.

I love Reddit so much, but the censorship is bullshit! I quit the entire META platform months ago, lost a lot of contacts but fuck Zuckerberg!

I got a ban for saying “even the sharks don’t want to eat Russians” on an article about a Russian tourist getting attacked by a shark.

I didn't get banned, I just can't login anymore. All browsers confirm username and pass are correct, but reddit says they are not. They really don't like critics. No calls for violence, veiled or otherwise. The wheels are coming off that country quickly.

This (among other reasons) is why I left Reddit, deleted my account and move to Lemmy.world.

Welcome, reddit refugees. You won't miss Spezzit.

Fucking crybaby

[–] Mallspice@lemm.ee 18 points 1 week ago (25 children)

The day I saw Trump win I knew Reddit was going on the chopping block but even then, it’s been going downhill since 2016 with bots, bot mods, and language policing. Merely saying ‘fucking Luigi’ is a ban worthy offense and it’s absolutely asinine.

So the Twitter boss gets to order around the Reddit boss? Typical Stevie... No spine

[–] conicalscientist@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago

It feels like a warped in to another dimension. Did everyone start using only 5 years ago?
