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.

Make a new account and tell them.
They track Machine ID and IP. They just auto ban any new accounts.
Try using VPN and different browser or delete local reddit data. Not sure if reddit allows VPNs anymore for account creation though.
I tried to like Reddit but every time I tried posting something I thought was original or thoughtful it would get auto deleted by a bot for not including the right "flair" or some other stupid shit.
Posting in r/showerthoughts was impossible.
Questions about dark matter removed from r/space
Lots more like that.
Showerthoughts was one I tried. I don't remember specifics but I tried a couple times to post actual thoughts I had in the shower and they got insta-banned by a bot so I just gave up.
Don't miss Reddit. I got my 10 year account permanently banned for making a complaint about a mod who temp banned me for no perceivable reason.
Eat a sack of damp turds Reddit.
Oh, you can get banned here. It's not like this is like a place of free speech. It's just that the internet is kind of created little pockets of echo chambers. It is what it is. And like it was always going to be like that anyways. I just like it that it's not monetized by corporations that are bombing the shit out of children.
you can get banned here
It takes special effort here, though.
And like it was always going to be like that anyways.
It's not inevitable: some places are very laissez-faire.
Not that difficult. A year ago I was banned from lemmy.world for refusing to get into an argument with a mod.
Only by the admin of your home instance, which is unlikely and normally comes after something very extreme (and can be mitigated by running your own instance, where you are in sole power over your account, so it cannot be banned globally)
But normally, you'll get banned by the community/certain other instance in very gruesome cases, but not your account.
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.
Similar happened to me. You cannot say there is genocide going in Palestine. If u say that are temp banned for a day, then 3 day then permanently banned.
There will still be an amount of censorship on lemmy, it might just be on the opposite opinion of yours, so you won’t notice it. I’m pretty sure we’re slowly turning into an echo chamber as well
that's why if you disagree with censorship/moderation policy of an instance, you can move to another one. You can't do that on reddit.
Yea but those tend to be defederated quickly and not last for long, and each time you switch, you lose all the content you’ve posted and saved :(
That's fine. "Defederation" will have less meaning as time goes on and there are different sections of the fediverse that support different ideals.
The more people that are afraid of "defederation" and adjust their behavior as a result, the more power it has.
Lately I'm seeing a lot of this on old accounts
I had a few alt accounts from a decade ago that I'd sometimes used to get something from that site but over the past year the all got banned for no reason because I literally didn't even post with them.
Im guessing that Reddit wants to get rid of those older users that still remember how great it was
They wantll Nu-reddit user, aka the ones that are ignorant of reddits history
I canceled my reddit pro, or reddit+ account, whatever the f*ck it is called, and the ads, the ads.... Ads that look like posts, or comments. It's almost making me 100% Lemmy too.
