đŸ«‚ lemmy will grow, I know it. I still go and browser reddit because local subs of my city or region are fun We should make a lemmy community for banned redditors Like a support group. For us to detox... Nah, I am lazy

I never should’ve listened to the people who said I needed to get karma. I survived 2 days doing nothing, but the second I listened to them, I got banned. I would’ve rather kept my 0 karma than get banned at 28 karma.

I wouldn’t mind having a “Reddit Refugee Camp” here for all the people who’ve been banned for seemingly no reason. Make the description “If Reddit kicked you out, come here. We’re all refugees together”. I hear it can take months or even years to get a response to an appeal, so yikes.

Also, some Reddit users can be really mean. I simply asked for advice on how to grow my community and explained that I was doing it just for fun. People started saying I was advertising and that Reddit users don’t like that, or even suggesting that I could be working for the company to promote it and get paid. I’m like, I’m literally doing this on my own, in my free time, because I enjoy it. They really didn’t need to be so mean about it. 😭

Dude, reddit is banning left and right these days.

You should make Reddit banned club community here on the fedivers

/communities?listingType=All&sort=TopMonth&page=1 sorts the communities by activity You can also browse the All feed with the "New Comments" sort, or "Active"

I do that now and it kinda helps, but I consume internet a lot.

Reddit algrothim has something new every time I open it, hut that is because more users are on reddit. I have a feeling that will change

Is reddit using ai to moderate because wow it is trash. I haven't been banned on social media until last night and it honestly made me so upset lol. How many communities can one person make on here?

I bet an AI shadow banned us.

I literally just made 4 posts about a humidity problem in some local subreddits to see how others handled it.

There was no reason to ban my shiny sexy ass.

Btw, you can talk like thag on this instance of lemmy.

I think you can make as many communities as you want, i bet it is encouraged becauss lemmy needs to grow and WILL GROW đŸ’Ș

I wanted to make a community and call it peepeepoopoo for those who experienced the need to poopoo as soon as they peepee, such a fascinating phenomenon.

You could additionally get on Mastodon and follow hashtags and people. Mbin does it all-in-one platform, PieFed has started to be able to support it too.

I feel you I got shadowbanned on Reddit last night. Had no warning whatsoever. I didn’t know posting in other communities and commenting on posts would flag spam and I get well banned. Have noticed people use the downvote more on here than Reddit.

I got perma banned. I assure you I wasn’t being bad. Didn’t break any rules. No idea. Just comment deleted and hours later banned. That’s it. It’s bots doing the banning which is an insane practice. You’re not even allowed asking why. That’s called harassment.
