I was permanently banned for “inciting violence” by saying how great it would be if a meteor crashed down on Mike Johnson. A meteor….

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

I was banned for a week for saying I hope Jill stein bangs her shin on every coffee table she walks past for the rest of her life
I got banned for calling a guy a "fascist sanewasher" and refusing to post an apology when a mod messaged me to tell me to apologize.
I get banned from reddit all the time for saying things against Israel.
Just clear browser cache and poweroff your cable modem for 15 min, should get ya new IP.
Don't use reddit mobile app, app will track unique device identifier and new account will still be banned.
Firefox+ ublock on desktop and mobile is your friend.
source: reddit permabanned many times
Yeah I got banned for 7 days then used my alt account and got hit with a perma ban. I got banned last summer and have not really regretted it. I was part of the Digg migration so I had been there a long time. I was pissed at first then I realized it really means nothing in the end.
i came from Y'A answers and various forums, never knew digg existed. it seems alternate account seems to recieve a heavier ban than the main one, and its risky to have an extra account. when one of my main accts were temp ban in oct '23 for criticizing israel, i switched to a backup older account thinking it would be safer with an old account, i managed the whole year(although i think get many warnings an 1 sub ban) only til feb i recieve the full arsenal of bans
Spez is a spineless cuck.
"Edolf" lol. My pet name for Trump is Liddle Shitler.
I haven't nor plan to... but it's also worst and worst content and behavior so yesterday I request my data take-out.
I'm not sure if I'll just stay logged-out (like right now) or plainly delete my account but either I'm preparing a way out.
It's funny how we used to have this trope of the mighty censorship bureau that has to rubberstamp everything (like they do for movies) but the reality is that the sycophants will trip over themselves to censor their neighbors in order to please those above. In Reddits case you have subreddit mods banning and censoring to please the reddit mods, who are trying to please reddit management, who are trying to please people like Musk, who are trying to please Trump. Trump doesn't have to say anything, those low level Mods are doing all the censoring for him pro bono.
mainly musk was complaining, and he was getting people banned. everytime the gop or musk complained the reddit initiate one of thier famous purges. now they are including vague responses in a ban message so it reduces thier liability, and gives them plausable excuses to ban people.
No way. I do that all the time, so does most people on Reddit. What is up with peeps on Lemmy always trying to say Reddit is banning shit. I will mention Luigi all the time on Reddit and have never been warned.
they recently backtacked on that recently, and yes they are banning randomly and in much more frequency than normal.
Permabanned for reporting posts on r/truerateme
those ego stroking subs are prone to that. i got temp ban from technology for "reporting posts" too.
I cant even tell you what I got banned for because they banned me without saying why. I dont even know the last thing I was talking about was finding anime in the style of berserk.
They probably banned you for something that happened at least 24 hours before the ban hit because they're just slow. My account was banned a week after I had replied to a racist troll trying to figure out if they were being racist so that I could ban them on my subreddit, and my comment was flagged as racist. I had already banned the user and hidden the thread, but that wasn't good enough for Reddit and I needed to go.
thats interesting, another method i hear dis they are linking accounts in a sub, strangers together in a group and just wait til oneof them gets banned, then the whole group that got flagged also is banned. i think its thier filters assuming they all are botting, because they are posting similar comments.
I'm not banned, I deleted everything on there like 3 years ago.
I got banned for saying a woman was a monster. Yes free speech really must be protected by all sides, we can too easily lose it.
I got permabanned for criticizing Israel. The final comment that got me permabanned was literally 'No, just the problems they deserve blame for' to a zionist who accused all Lebanese of blaming all their problems on Israel.
I got banned for saying Andrew Tate fans are fucking retarded.
Genuinely an insult to actual mentally disabled people comparing them to tate groupies.
They hated him because he spoke the truth.
Welcome, c'mon in outta the cold. There's a warm spot of ere
My leaving was originally from the api cost changes, I had payed for a 3rd party reader years ago and all of a sudden my lifetime of no ads was gone and I had to pay. This change was admittedly after reddit decided to follow twitters api cost changes. I am supprised at how close Elon and spez seem to be, given that I don't know of any photos of the two of them, they they probably only know each other as CEO's.
they are in cahoots with each other, since spez have openly love how elon "moderates" twitter, make sense why it resembls it now.
Holy crap that is EXACTLY what happened to me this week. I wasn’t top contributor or anything so grand but I got a 7 ban after criticizing imperialism which after making an appeal that was rejected. I literally did nothing afterwards but woke up to a perma ban that was issued several hours after with no indication of why.
it seems they are site-wide banning people after thier 1-week temp ban? i had one before they immediately banned all my other accounts, eventhough those havnt participated in those subs i got banned recently. they are also looking for any old accounts you may have banned from, so they are retroactively applying to all your accounts.
Edolf 🤣 using this from now on
