Speedrunning a permaban on my 15 year old account. How many days do you think it will take?
They ban u for upvoting? Not even commenting, but literally just upvoting?
That’s why I finally pulled the plug on my 14 year old account. That Orwellian bullshit is a deal breaker.
My 12 year old account got permanently suspended after an alt got a ban from r/entertainment for disagreeing with someone. Neither of us warranted a ban. Since I couldn’t block the sub from the news feed I accidentally commented again in the sub with my banned account not realizing the sub I was in. Then I commented with my main and got permanently banned. I appealed but didn’t get a response. This all happened over the course of a month or so and left an awful taste in my mouth.
Same here, my 3 year old account got permabanned since my new alt got banned from r/shitpost and I couldn’t filter it out so I accidentally commented on my main and, well here I am…
Haha samesies with my 12 year old account. I kept an alt for like 3 months before reddit just randomly banned it. Tried to create one more account and it got banned that day. Looked up Reddit alternatives and found this place :)
I don’t know if you saw this article, but it’s a fascinating and infuriating read, it’s about all of the Luigi censorship and the upvote policing. It’s scary as hell. Check it out
It talks about terrorist propaganda. I know a little bit about extremist groups use of social media… the tldr is social media is riddled with it. If they’re saying that’s the motivation then they are using that as an excuse. It’s ALWAYS been on reddit p, it’s nothing but a cover story.
That’s what they said!
Banning accounts from just upvoting is insane.
I recommend u guys try Lemmy. I feel like Reddit is reaching its EOL
How do i join lemmy
reddit reached enshitification several years ago.
2017 was more than several years ago
I would say that’s about several years ago.
😡
In the before time
To be fair, the English language is very subjective.
Several is probably appropriate as it is under a decade?
Couple is two or more. Few is three or more. More than a half dozen.
Less than a dozen or a baker’s dozen (13).
Definitely at least a bunch.
Quite a few!
Not innumerable.
Certainly not countless.
A shitload?
Many perhaps?
Considerable.
I’ve never heard of this platform! Where can I sign up?
It doesn’t really exist mate, it’s a joke post
Please let them implode.
I want Lemmy to have niche content. I’m tired of being a bitter asshole about politics and news on here. I want to gleefully distract myself while my country burns, not be ultra depressed about it because its constantly in my face.
yeah i always like the beginning of a new platform in the first few years where everyone is just having fun before the hoards come and commercialization happens.
Real big fan of being able to recognize people here.
Man isn’t even convicted yet and his name is taboo.
The rich are scared. Good. They should be.
That’s exactly what we need to take from this. Not that money is in control and that’s why they’re cracking down, but that they’re cracking down because they’re scared.
They can be scared, but unless ten, fifty, or one hundred green Mario brothers appear nothing will change.
Reddit is more okay with people where we have indisputable video of them killing someone else in cold blood than someone who police just say trust us bro he did it.
Amazing how the admins react to things
alot of the videos subs, like publicfreakout according to some people on the same site said they are mostly FORMER leo, or leo mods. and i had several comment removals, report abuse removals,etc.
His name isn’t taboo, it’s just the asslicker self-chosen slaves of the rich that want to silence it.
#FreeLuigi
If they can pardon the January 6th hostages…
Remember, Jury Nullification!
Darn. I guess this means me making a Reddit account to confess that Luigi was my first videogame character crush ever is out of the question.
Fucking cowards sending out the messages from an account that you can’t even reply to? Are they also sending out these messages to people upvoting /r/Conservative content? What about/r/Conspiracy?
most tech should be considered state media at this point. during covid i said something about omicron being more transmissible than the original variant even in vaccinated people (true statement) - perma banned with no warning. now if you don’t immediately condemn “hate” towards nazis you are also banned/warned lol
Fucking cowards sending out the messages from an account that you can’t even reply to?
Not even really cowardice when you consider how bare bones their staff is. Even if they gave a shit about users, real monetization costs money and Reddit hates spending.
Dude one of my guilty pleasures on Reddit was r/fightporn. You’re telling me people are getting this kind of warning while the site also hosts a sub dedicated to real street fights? Fuck outta here
hey so i started looking at a new place because I’m tired of reddit and the people on it… My upvotes began just disappearing. I hate to be that person, but I think I was shadowbanned. I didn’t even know that was a real thing until reddit. When the little reddit guy’s back is turned on your icon you’re in some kind of restricted mode. Anyway, i noticed my upvotes weren’t showing and someone else kinda fiddled with it with me to see what was going on. I don’t know if this is related to luigi but it’s some weird nonsense.
You sir or ma’am were shadowbanned. They want your views, not your voice. Basically you are ad revenue to them, if they ban you they lose that sweet juicy $.02 from their advertiser. They want two cents from their advertiser, just not from you.
so would this work if I made a comment then edited it?
I’m thinking it would be fucking hilarious to go on conservative and get them to upvote it only to edit it to say something like, “Luigi is a hero!”, then they just start banning all the bots and conservatives.
“While you didn’t post the rule-breaking content, reading content that breaks the rules is also considered a violation.”
“While you didn’t post the rule-breaking content, thinking about breaking the law is also considered a violation.”
“While you didn’t post the rule-breaking content, protesting human rights violations is also considered a violation.”
“While you didn’t post the rule-breaking content, being an unapproved minority is also considered a violation.”
“While you didn’t post the rule-breaking content, not drinking enough verification cans is also considered a violation.”
They’re scared. Spez knows his neck is on the line in a more literal fashion than ever.
While you didn’t post the rule-breaking content, not buying a Tesla is also considered a violation.
Ahhhhhhhhh now I see what the enforcement angle is on orangeboi declaring that an “illegal boycott” (a term that makes roughly as much sense as “aerodynamic bedsheet”)
(a term that makes roughly as much sense as “aerodynamic bedsheet”)
What other kind of sheets would you get for a racecar bed?
You know, I hadn’t thought of that but it’s a good point.
me being banned from r/freeluigi twice for innocuous comments
They’re scared. Spez knows his neck is on the line in a more literal fashion than ever.
Just like lemmy
If you wanna do it fast, just speak ill of fascists. Worked for me.
Nazi website
I said 53 days closer to his obituary. I’m not sure how that’s anything but an actual truth? But whatever. Fuck those knee benders.
HELL YES COMRADE, FIGHT THE POWER
fr though, this is such a badass way to get banned. don’t even reply to them - just keep doing the thing, post, and watch as every pathetic attempt at intimidation gets hundreds of defiant upvotes here.
Uh yea I’m actually approaching the amount of Reddit karma on Lemmy in my first week LOL. Guess I know where all the good commenters went now.
Whatever their goal is, one result is apparent: less voicing of opposite views to the status quo on their website.
Less voicing of views, period. Reddit doesn’t want user interaction. Only views. The bots generate the content while the users are there to generate ad revenue.
You will lick boot and you will like it!
only in the bedroom
It’s literally Orwell’s “wrongthink” - which is a thoughtcrime on Reddit.
I deleted my 11 year old Reddit account a couple days ago after being banned for quoting The Sopranos. On r/movies. As a response to another Sopranos quote.
For most of those 11 years I had no problems then just in the last month I was banned sitewide twice (for threatening behavior, I was venting about fascists and used violent rhetoric I guess, mind you this was on a repost of that famous video of a Nazi getting punched), given this same warning you got about upvoting things they didn’t like, permabanned from r/movies (again for the same quote), I just reached my limit. Reddit was great for me for a long time but I am better off without it. I was on it too much anyways!
