My reddit account got a strike by an admin for describing the risks involved in traveling to the USA currently (abduction, torture for an undetermined amount of time). The appeal I made to that was accepted but it left a sour taste in my mouth.

Lemmy. The support group for burned reddit veterans.
We were there. We put in thousands of hours of work. Years of moderating. Free work. Content creators. People who commented. Voted. All that karma ...
All gone cause you upvoted an anti trump or musk post. Or maybe you upvoted a photo of a tessler burning.
Maybe you didn't think Luigi should get the death penalty.
Don't worry brother. Upvote what you want. Be free with the rest of us.

Many many years and ass loads of karma....
But apparently LIKING posts can get you banned now. What a shit show.
Clearly they're butthurt that you didn't fellate Trump or Musk or some other such drain clog.
My Reddit account was permanently banned for saying I hope Nazi scum Elon Musk dies soon. Had previously caught temporary bans for saying things like "We should overthrow Musk into the sea." in response to him having argued King Charles should overthrow the UK government. Reddit admins really don't seem to like it when you're righteously intolerant of evil scumfuck psychopaths who use their unearned power and influence to cause immeasurable harm to society, the world and its inhabitants. Things like that break Rule 1, threatening violence, they claim.
Although the permanent ban was only for a couple of days since I for once was successful in my appeal. I basically said death =/= violence. An obvious truth to anyone, except some Reddit admins apparently.
I've not really used Reddit since. Kind of lost my will to bother with a US based site that's clearly and predictably going in a US direction, i.e. spiraling down the fascist sewage. Instead I've been drifting over to here. Will see what the moderation over here is like.
My first appeal was not really an appeal and more a question but they ignored every appeal after that, I evaded a subreddit ban (accidentally was scrolling on an alt) for the most lame subreddit and made the most boring pointless comment as I do, it was like 3 words instant ban
But yeah that shit made me genuinely hate the site, there is no way at all to get in contact with a human, no email, no phone, just that one short limited character appeal you can send once.
Prior to that I had a temp ban for reporting stuff and it was like mod abuse or something, insane, it was against the rules, but if republicans incite violence its okay if they encourage suicides or whatever its fine
This is why I tell people to dump pitchers of water on Reddit employees if you meet one at a bar in Frisco. Also rub shit on the HQ front doors handle. Make them extra pissed off.
I hope all their party favors are laced, sf tech bros prob goin to illenium
Feel that pain this year would have been my 10th year on Reddit. I was permanently banned last June for saying I hope the libs of TikTok monster would get hit by a bus. It’s still blows I can’t post or comment on anything. I was part of a close nit group on Reddit involving a car subreddit and now it sucks to see people commenting on where I am and what happened.
I was permabanned without explanation and reinstated two weeks later, again without comment.
I believe this tracks with what to expect should we ever see the tech-bro billionaires divide the world into monarchy fiefdoms ocer which rhey are each the unchallenged lord and master.
A shadowban was triggered by a simple comment removal and a completely new browsers, reddit wants all your browser info, they dislike if your using a browser fork too, besides only chrome or main ff
