News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
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.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

True
I was banned a few times for saying something like that if some politician of some country consciously does a thing which costs Armenian lives, or, say, "recognizes territorial integrity of Azerbaijan", they are fair game for Armenians. That technically they make a choice they have right to make, or that their country has some interests, etc are reasons, but not excuses.
I mean, people are responsible for the actions they take. It's not extremism.
I was banned from Reddit for allegedly promoting "hate".
Story: There was post about convicted criminals being send bacl to Afghanistan and that they were released there and are, in fact, not in prison. After a little discussion if that is good or bad i wrote that imho the cutural background CAN be a factor for not fitting well into western society. Backed by the fact that there are people considered criminals here in Germany but not in Afghanistan. I also wrote in a follow up comment that i don't see any culture as better or worse baseline...only that there are some that CAN crash with western worldview.
That got me banned and my appeal, stating that i didn't sold my opinion as a fact is being ignored.
The really sad thing is that i made the mistake of engaging a political topic online and it seems that mistake is iredeemable in the eyes of some faceless Reddit mod. I srsly liked it there for my interests in the other communities.
So now i found Lemmy.World and hope to can engage in the same stuff as there....except for the hot topics of politics....
They banned me cus I told someone who was mocking the Uvalad School shooting to "Choke on butter" I was banned for several days, and i was fine with that- Until MOTHER FUCKING OPERA GX- SIGNED ME IN AUTOMATICALLY TO MY ALT. Now im fucking perma banned, and reddit WONT ANSWER ME NO MATTER WHAT I DO- Im so desperate at this point. I really really really want my account back and I miss being in all of the active forum communities there. Lemmy just isnt the same
I really really hope theres some kinda way to get my account back. I appealed 20 times, not a single answer
They don't really care unfortunately
I wouldn't hold my breath. Reddit appeal system is known to be very bad.
scuse me while I cry about it just one more time this week 🥲
You're going to be okay 🙂

It's horrible. I contributed content and comments for so many years for them. I also bought award coins from them and then they closed the program and literally stole my money. Ultimately, I got banned just recently for saying something that absolutely was not against their policy, it was misinterpretted, and now they won't reply to my appeal.
I got permabanned by commenting on a spoilt kid. I said he deserves a smack.
Probably a good thing you got banned for advocating for child abuse.
That's literally a violation of rule 1 of their content policy though.
Rule 1
Remember the human. Reddit is a place for creating community and belonging, not for attacking marginalized or vulnerable groups of people. Everyone has a right to use Reddit free of harassment, bullying, and threats of violence. Communities and users that incite violence or that promote hate based on identity or vulnerability will be banned.
I got banned from r/mildlyinteresting like 10 years ago because I posted a picture of an oil spill in a parking lot that looked like a reindeer. Didn't break the rules, no idea why I got banned, every time I've tried to appeal they sent me through like eight moderators and nothing ever got done, and same as you, they don't even reply anymore.
Got site banned for calling out and even providing evidence that the mods on /r/steamdeck were abusing their power and treating users like shit. It was "harassment."
I just made a new account, and they haven't even realized it yet. I want to do something crazy that highlights how fucked reddit is, just don't know what or how to do so at the moment.
Anyone who cares to see it already has, so I wouldn't waste too much energy on it. Even a smoking gun would likely be disappointing when the world keeps turning without much change.
Though if you could show they've fucked the shareholders somehow, that might be different. But even there, most of the shitshow is out in the open and if they didn't cross the line by driving away so much of their userbase, I'm not sure what would be considered crossing the line.
I would do that in a heartbeat.
Thier admins and mods are incompetent
I can't even call steam deck on windows dumb without getting SITE banned, SITE
What?
really, thats messed up. they drive away their users just for a power thrill.
I got banned multiple times because the person reporting me accused me of writing things i didn't even write.
mods didn't check, didn't care.
Democracy is clearly the only proper way to manage a society, yet we continue to use totalitarian dictators. Weird.
and democrcy is a flawed system anyways, but somehow still the best
