Hi. So, all my accounts got banned from reddit. Including my new one that had nothing to do with the reason I got banned, but apparently they thought I was evading the fucking ban by making a new account! So, do I spend countless hours scouring the internet looking for an alternative to reddit, or do I risk it yet again, and make a new account?

    I got bannek from r/korea because I recorded a video of a big newsworthy fire close to the motorway, uploaded it to my own instance of PeerTube and linked to it in my post.

    They said I should have uploaded it to YouTube or some other 3rd party website to not be accused of self promotion.

    After two years livin g in Korea and banned fro r/korea I moved to Lemmy and deleted my whole account there.

      Self promotion rule is the stupidest rule ever. I get it sometime it help filter out spamming, but this basically just switch from ad spam to astro-turfing.
