I got permanently banned from Reddit for saying that Child predators should be killed.
I mean, they made admin (or supermod, can’t be arsed to remember) a known child-predator enabler and issued bans on anyone complaining; that should have been a sign of where they were going…
Yes even I think someordinarygamers made a video about that. One time one reddit mod was removed from a subreddit as mod and he came live on Youtube and pleaded to give him back mod. Reddit mods are weird af
i got nuked from reddit because of Emil Nolde of all people. Someone posted his painting on r/museum and i made a comment about the demented irony of his life - he was hardcore nazi but he ended up in Entartete Kunst exhibition - so somehow mods thought that’s condoning nazis and breaking the community rules - boom boom boom and here we are.
I appreciated reddit very very narrowly, and entirely because every time I had a problem, the internet search result for said problem would be a reddit post with the solution. . Which isnt even true anymore, between people having scrambled posts before deleting accounts, and just the passage of time, and due to the friendly, helpful people disappearing.
beyond that interaction with reddit, it was a festering shitpile of hatred, bigotry, and pedophilia, and it continues to amaze me how it maintained such a popular position.
I miss having a place with niche communities that were active due to the sheer size of reddit. It’s very hard to get one going here - especially with the fragmentation of instances. Want to talk scuba diving? Do you go to the scuba community on .world or on .ml or what?
The community with the most posts last had a post 11 months ago. The one with the most users hasn’t had one in a year.
Being Lemmy, that post wasn’t really even about diving, but was about about Linus Torvalds making a FOSS dive logging app, because of course it fucking was.
now the place to get questions answered is discord.
Where the answers are now locked away, never to be found, archived, or otherwise made wildly available unless you specifically find that specific discord that contains it by pure happenstance and luck,… and for it all to disappear when the discord shuts down, Or someone just decides to delete their post, lost forever, never to be seen again.
I have been banned from several comms on lemmy for saying very similar things. Most comms seem OK with it, but there are definitely a few conservative mods on lemmy that will protect their own.
You are lying. Nazis in 1930’s Germany referred to themselves as conservatives as did Hitler himself. Even modern nazis refer to themselves as conservatives, espouse conservative views and align with conservative politicians.
Every word uttered by a conservative is deception or manipulation. Every word. Never believe a conservative.
Both of those perfectly reasonable opinions unfortunately still fall under reddit’s site wide umbrella bannable offenses of “inciting harm or violence.” 🫤 I know because I’m here for the same reasons.
I got banned from Reddit for saying that the only thing Nazis are good for is target practice.
I am an almost 40 year old white man… My Grandparents fought the Nazis.
The only good Nazi is a dead Nazi

Funny that.

100% fuck Reddit

It’s reddit. It’s run by nazis, for nazis.
Not to mention the current administration that would/isn’t regulating them would be offended by that statement

Yeah I agree with all of that. Used to be that Reddit was the place to go to get questions answered… That time is long gone now.

God I miss web forums.

there are definitely some lemmy communities that are on absolute baby mode rules that ban for anything but verbally fellating eachother.
and unfortunately its some of the big ones like Technology and World News, not some niche no-care shitty corner ones.
pls stop using "conservative " as synonymous to fascist, thats what they want, there is nothing conservative about nazism

Reddit is a cesspool. Avoid that. Heck these days on reddit nobody posts any useful info
