    Yup, I got perma-banned for speaking out against the genocide in Gaza. The admin called me a “hateful Nazi fascist.”

    I’m to the left of Bernie and I don’t support ethnic cleansing. Reddit is just falling in line with the AIPAC propaganda as they’re a powerful foreign lobbyist group in the US.

    Not banned. I deleted all my posts and then quit Reddit the moment they tried to ruin (and were mostly successful it seems) 3rd party apps with changes to their API. Screw them.

    I got a temp sitewide ban on Reddit. I created this account and when the ban lifted, I deleted my account, made a new one just to observe and not participate. Only some subreddits I miss. They don’t exist yet on Lemmy or they are dead here.

    There’s a few, and they proceed to get downvoted to hell and banned from here as well because people are even less tolerant to those that love to test the rules here.

      I guess I’m an outlier because I was banned for basically no reason.

      Mods thought I was impersonating a pharmacist because I posted in cs career subreddit and banned me instantly. Then extended it when I asked them why it was happening

        Yeah there’s those situations, fairly rare. Most of the ones I see coming here are the free speech kind that are mad they got banned for harassing people and generally being major assholes.

        Welcome to Lemmy then! The mods aren’t perfect either but at least you have choices in instances.

    Actually, yes. I’m very sure that it was a false ban, but as Reddit makes sure you can’t find out, as the comment is, of course, deleted, and their appeal form was down, and because lemmy was pretty good, I just switched fully.

      Does an appeal actually work or do anything? I’ve tried but it’s never been replied to

    Well, I kept getting my comments deleted and had temp bans a lot since they went public. I’m glad to be here instead.
