Reddit banned all the people that made it fun, now the only people left are the boring ones and bots lol

[–] Draegur@lemm.ee 8 points 1 hour ago

I got banned for pointing out that ICE are a human trafficking terrorist gang

[–] fossilesque@mander.xyz 2 points 18 minutes ago

It's a bot farm.

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 1 points 25 minutes ago

Yeah, can't just hang out over there being a decent human being, they want to the the new compliment to X

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 1 points 31 minutes ago

Reading all these ban stories, I'm glad I left during the API thing! I don't like censoring myself.

Hello everyone. You're not alone. I got banned like for 4-5 times, using local Ukrainian words that may look like slurs, but they aren't.

I got unbanned, but I am still too scared to write anything about politics on Reddit. I want a working account there for IT questions.

[–] astro_plane@lemm.ee 9 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago) (5 children)

Make another account then. I have a shit posting account for making comments I know will be dicey. Reddit mods are fat slobs don't let them stop you from living your dreams.

[–] Monstrosity@lemm.ee 1 points 6 minutes ago

My solution is to browse subreddits without signing in so whenever I go to up vote or down vote anything I can't and think, "oh right," then go back to Lemmy (which is quickly becoming a higher quality experience anyways).

[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

they will detect your alternate account through fingerprinting you

it's where I am currently, unable to use any of my 100% wholesome and positively contributing accounts because I shared the opinion of "Oh no, anyways" on a burning Tesla dealership post, got banned from world news with no explanation, asked for elaboration and did not receive it, and then continued to post in that sub with another account.

did I ban evade? yes. did I first attempt to find out why I was banned? yes. was I ignored and thus continued to participate with other accounts, being careful to say nothing even close to provocative with those accounts? yes.

didn't matter. they identified it as the same account, they banned it.

I've been treated the same way, lost about 7 accounts each over 12 years old because some mod didn't like me telling off an incel and from there sent it to admins there it's been repeated bans and shadowbans.

I am done with reddit, I've seen behind the curtain in my time there, I know how bad it really is. The whole platform is now an AI training-bed and in some communities more than half the users appear to be bots. Very clever, very well-disguised, but you can tell if you check their history. They want to be able to control large-scale narratives and it's working.

But if anyone wants to try to keep fighting the bot army, you can create a new account by deleting all your reddit cookies and browsing history, resetting your modem for a minute, then making a new account with a new email. (Use Gmail or another name-brand on, they now shadowban accounts made from disposable emails.)

Also, do not use a VPN ever. Instant permanent shadowban.

From there you just need to establish some karma history so you can post. Memes and other content-grind subreddits let even new accounts last I checked.

If you don't want your account banned immediately, do not make political opinions, do not argue with anyone, do not sass reddit even through they deserve far worse. Don't reply to yourself or your alt accounts, they can now tell immediately. Do not report anyone, they now will use reporting as an excuse to ban you if they decide they don't like you.

Reddit mods are fat slobs who can be easily duped, but Reddit algorithims will autoban you for making new accounts.

I'm basically exiled from it until I decide to get a new device and sign in on a new network other than my home or my work.

[–] muusemuuse@lemm.ee 2 points 1 hour ago (2 children)

they keep banning any other accounts I made there over being linked with the first one. I have tried unique email addresses and everything but they still figure it out within 24 hours, even when I 'm not allowed to post anything. So I just dont use reddit at all anymore.

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 1 points 21 seconds ago

Burn all your tracking cookies associated with reddit, kill all your browsing history, then reset your router for a minute, then use a fresh e-mail and not a disposable one. Using a VPN will also get you insta-flagged.

[–] DicJacobus@lemmy.world 4 points 1 hour ago

you probably need to use a new device and on a network you havent frequently used. Unique email addresses dont mean anything if you're logging in with the same browser with the same cookies and "digital footprint"

[–] gameplayer55055@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Luckily, I've never had issues with reddit mods, but I received a f*ck ton of global bans on r/reddit_ukr (getting carpet bombed by russian bots and the half of the comments are [deleted])

It's the time to discover the fediverse ig. Btw any ideas where I can dump a ton of random IT memes?

[–] astro_plane@lemm.ee 3 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago) (1 children)

I guess my advice wasn't anygood, hardware bans and ip can go in effect if you get banned. I love Lemmy, but this community is still a young, subs for a lot of niche hobbies and shit posting dont really exist...yet.

I use voyager and kept scrolling through the reconmended sub's list until I found something I was looking for. The search feature is hit or miss, I didnt find anything for IT memes.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 hour ago

I haven't really checked this site out in a long time, but I found it helpful in the past: https://lemmyverse.net/communities

[–] Klowner@lemmy.world 15 points 3 hours ago

I've had my reddit account for 17 years and I received my first warning for inciting violence because I commented "this makes me want to make a whip and go to town on these people" (a reference to Jesus running out the money changers in the temple) on a video of a megachurch service showing a woman painting trump bowing to a cross.

[–] pulido@lemmings.world 4 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago) (1 children)

Lemmy isn't much better. We still need communities that don't allow mod abuse.

If you get reported enough, the mods will censor or ban you even if you're not breaking any rules.

[–] Monstrosity@lemm.ee 2 points 4 minutes ago

Lemmy isn't much better!?

Whatever you say, man.
