Asklemmy

I've been banned for saying pro luigi or similar stuff, but since I am not attached to my account I just make a new one. The most annoying part of getting banned is just resubbing to your preferred subreddits. I prefer lemmy now days anyway and it is nice to see familiar usernames now and then and I don't get as annoyed seeing constant liberalism. I still use Reddit for some things like really niche subjects, questions, or hobbies and people can be genuinely helpful in some subreddits ngl.

I also find the moderation here to be much fairer and more protective of vulnerable groups.

Perma banned. Definitely Perma banned.

Funny how I went what thirteen years or something, being the same cranky old progressive I've always been yet the MOMENT the orange cancer takes office again and reddit kowtows to muskrat, I get permanently banned.

Karma like no tomorrow so apparently a lot of people agreed with me.

I like Lemmy since its mostly about Tech but even the small communities over on Reddit can be more engaging then communities over here. I am involved in Trading cards and there just not the same community over here for it

Deleted my Reddit acc during the APIcalypse. Lemmy is just awesome.

Still on both but I'm not actively going on Reddit anymore. Only when Lemmy World can't be reached by my Sync app (which has usually more to do with my connection than Lemmy) or when I click links from people. I've refrained from commenting there anymore and will likely wipe it soon enough, after I get around to wiping my Meta posts (can't delete my whole account since I have friends and family still using it, but I definitely want to "hollow it out" if that makes sense).

I had an account on reddit, about five years old until I finally decided to leave it because i spend an ungodly amount of time there. Knowing myself and my habit to flake on self set goals I thought out the ultimate strategy to keep me from coming back: Over a couple of weeks I intentionally posted atrocious stuff on my main and my two alt-accounts to get me permabanned and burn every single bridge.

For now it has successfully stopped me from wasting time there any longer.

Temporary ban but Reddit is becoming less and less fun. Less interesting.

It’s time to move on.

The 3rd party app change didn't sit well with me. Ended up stop using reddit on my phone entirely since native was horrible. Ended up coming here when the crackdown on "Luigi" was happening and other censorship that was questionable AF. The amount of content here obviously isn't comparable to reddit, yet, but it's enough to digest throughout the day on work poop breaks and whatnot. :)

I like Lemmy more because it is more aligned with my interest, notably Tech and Linux. I also like to have smaller communities in which your interaction have impact and are being read instead of being lost in thoudands of comments.

I like lemmy more, but it doesn't have as much daily content, so I use both.

I started winding down when Alexis Ohanian fired the AMA subreddit's organizer; lied to her face; and blamed Ellen Pao (CEO at the time).
I started going there only when desperate after the API scandal.
The only thing that I miss is the ability to see just the subreddits I specify in the url (i.e. r/news+technology+worldnews+etc+etc)

I was already swapping preban but the ban forced me to swap, I dont lurk on reddit anymore or view posts like i did the first month or so (its uninstalled and only used on google rarely, since forums and even quoro are somehow better for useful info again), so I think I like lemmy more lol

The userbase is better, top comments opinion matches mine here, I go into a thread and I never feel the need to argue here, very different experience to modern reddit, close to reddit like 12 years ago.

Little of A, little of B. For the most part I'm allowed on Reddit and still even use it occasionally (gasp!), but occasionally I run into a sub I'm banned from without any reason given. I must have engaged in wrongthink or posted in a no-no sub or something, because often they're subs where I have little to no activity in the first place. Unfortunately, there's no way to get a list of all the subs you're banned from, so I don't know if it's just a few wackos or an actually significant chunk of the sight.

Wasn't banned, just abandoned my account around 8 years ago.

Fuck Reddit. Does that answer help?

I have no idea how many times I was permabanned. But what turned me to Lemmy was that cuntrag Spez taking away my Apollo.

no i just like supporting competition and not giant companies

Reddit sucks, it's getting worse day after day. I'm still there, but moving to Lemmy.

I stopped using reddit after i get banned for unknown reason years ago, so i move to lemmy.

Both, I'm sure I could make a new account if I wanted but I don't want to contribute to their dumpster fire of a website anymore anyway

Both

I'm not angry when I use lemmy. So, I like it here.

I'm not banned on reddit, never have been. I use both daily. Lemmy to see what my fellow humans are talking about, Reddit for when I want to see what bots are talking about.

I got a new account after my old one got banned but now I never challenge the echo chamber. I just ban/block obnoxious subs and users to avoid the temptation. I stay mainly for some interest groups there and local subs.

Saw one mod in a sub bragging about how they banned lots of users for challenging a post and they were getting cheered on. Wonder if that is in line with reddit's policy?

Neither.

On average I think I end up spending more time on reddit, but I contribute to and like this community a lot more.

Deleted my account because I burned myself off moderating a few subreddits
