I always thought Reddit was an exception and I wouldve drode it forever if they didn't auto perm ban me "ban evasion," and deny my appeals. I just believed there was no other option and had been arguing there for 15 years and didn't want to leave lol. Sure like 25% of my comments and 50% of my posts would get removed for not following some arbitrary rules perfectly, but it just felt like the tradeoff of a big forum. (At least here when mods only can post it's clear, on reddit you could drop a post for a game release and get it removed so a mod can post it)
Every negative change came with some good, like oh they banned some free speech but they also got rid of jailbait/creepshots so good? Except one of those should.ve never been there for so long and on the front page in the first place. It's like they sneak in the terrible decisions they want to make with the obvious ones that should've been made long ago.
