Lol fuck reddit cuck mods anyways.
Working for free for a major company should be considered a mental illness. If your going to volunteer your time do it to an actual good cause.
Not fucking reddit.
Bros are living in a fantasy, site was broken wide open years ago.
average of over 60,000 daily active moderators” that month, which, at the time, would mean that 0.1 percent of all mods equals 600 people.
No, it equals 60 people.
lol of course power mods would say that.
Fuck that dumbass site.
Every few months I check back and see if there’s any news on awkardtheturtle rearing his ugly head, and every few months im satisfied they were totally obliterated
Being a bass aggregator myself, its less likely they’ll bite the hand that feeds them first,The exposure for my friend’s accounts have been phenomenal though.
I kibd of agree.with this one, on the other hand reddit is not my circus and those mods are not my monkeys.
Hell, I never understood why anyone worked for free to make the owners richer ? Here I get (and thank you), like an old school BBS but reddit makes zero sense as a mod.
Fake importance.
'member when redditors would ALL leave because of the API restrictions? This will have no real effect whatsoever. I’m glad that most redditors didn’t move to lemmy.
Strong words from a former reddit refugee, my man, we were the redditors that moved to Lemmy
Nobody hates Reddit more than redditors.
I mean, I did. This is my 3rd account, after beehaw and then blahaj.
I mean, I sure did
I still have a Reddit account that I use to follow NBA news and discussions, but I found myself going there less and less over time because most of the content is just so damn repetitive. The bots are really going into overdrive as of late, and it’s making most of the big subs unusable. A lot of the small subs aren’t any better because they’re either controlled by some terminally online powermods or they’re some extremely unhinged echo chamber. That being said, Lemmy isn’t any better, but at least it’s more private and less corporate.
I started going there way less after the API restrictions because my favourite client stopped working. Then, I got banned and found out there was a better alternative — Lemmy.
I got banned for updooting Luigi stuff.
And I’ll fucking do it again!
I only got a warning, they said if I did it again I could face a site-wide ban though. Pretty disturbing that they’re tracking upvotes to a post… they said I also upvoted a Luigi comment… but in both cases, they wouldn’t tell me specifically which post or comment triggered it.
This is the way.
I got banned for implying someone should give him a call. Reddit can lick my taint, it’s not even worth making another account, I can talk to AI bots anywhere these days!
Fuck Reddit. It needs to die, along with discord.
I got a lifetime ban after 12 years on Reddit. I still have no clue why, and I really, really don’t care.
I got perma banned a few years ago for saying pipzilla will stomp on ableists. cause apparently saying OCs of fictional characters will stomp on is a serious threat of violence Reddit moderation is so ass it’s comical people don’t believe me sometimes hwen itell them this is why i got banned but it is. v Pipzilla
I’ve gotten IP banned twice. Once for talking about my cat killing rabbits (violence!) and once for talking about racist attacks against my local mayor by right wing nutjobs (supporting racism).
It’s astoundingly stupid. I was never once ever even banned or blocked from a subreddit until like 2022. Then I started repeatedly getting bans from lots of subs for racism, sexism and violence. Mostly for throughful comments that were getting tons of upvotes then I’d get some personal comment from a mod about what a jerk I was and how if I think men/women are the same, and race isn’t a huge pivotal thing, and violence is part of life… well then apparently I’m sexist, racist, and promoting violence. I also pointed out some obvious viral marketing going on in some subs… and banned. I also start getting harassed and targetted and followed by people on the site. It was so weird to have someone show up in other subs to insult/harass me or the constant PMs from weirdos. Never ever got those until like '22 as well.
Reddit was great when it was small. People were reasonable and chill mostly and debate was allowed. I learned so much from so many great communities. Now it’s just a corporate echo chamber that wants a inoffensive as possible Disney like image. It’s run by dingbats with zero ability to make normal judgements and caters to nutbags and bad actors who actively abuse things.
That said IRL things are so getting worse. My entire life I’ve mostly head the same opinions… and now all the sudden I’m ‘evil’ because I don’t agree with exteremist/ignorance-first agendas being pushed so hard.
I live in a small country that sysadmins don’t care about. if I make an account on reddit, it will be banned the first time I say “hello” in the comments. there is no way for me to use Reddit. the appeal system is completely fake as far as i know. the messages go straight into the garbage they’re not read by anybody.
I’m currently on a 3 day ban on Reddit for “threatening others” because someone was going on about how they would smash people with telekinesis and I made a comment saying you could simply bend a prion without being dramatic and drawing attention to yourself.
I got banned for using the expression “take a long walk off a short pier”.
I don’t even get how the fanfiction subreddits are not permabanned due to all the crazy shit that gets written up there.
There’s a snuff/gore fiction subreddit. XD
Still waiting for the Reddit purge of Wincest, Rape, and Zoo subs. There’s a whole little toxic corner they allow to continue. I used to think they were honey pots. Now I’m not so sure.
Don’t forget /r/cuckservative. That shithole radicalizes so many low IQ incels.
Don’t get me started on /r/fuckingfascists and all it’s little variants.
I got banned for criticizing billionaires.
They updated their automod stuff a few months back and if you don’t follow the script you get banned very easily now.
Got banned from the stims community after satirically commenting ‘I’m 14 and what is this?’
The moderator demanded that I submit identity documents. I pointed out that the account was twelve years old but they couldn’t back down at this point. I think they were trying to do a good job and were at least active but it was another nail in the coffin. In theory, an unpaid mod could be more objective because there’s no profit motive but the reality is that many are ideologically biased or dumb or controlling and none of them are trained. That any single individual wants to be in charge of the narrative is suspicious. Scale that ambition up to hundreds of thousands or millions of people it’s a red flag. Reddit is completely cooked these days, I haven’t returned since finding Lemmy.
To be fair the account could be 9000 years old. You could be a 14 year old on their parents old account.
This one ain’t the mods being dumb. This is just liability requirements. Which is its own kinda dumb but it’s a whole different problem.
Caught a permaban for calling someone a coward. No big loss, honestly. Reddit wasn’t doing anything for me except raising my blood pressure.
It made me doom scroll for hours. My life has been notably less stressful since i left reddit. What a shithole that place is.
Yeah, I didn’t realize how much trouble it was causing me until I was gone.
Breaking news: Reddit is on fire again. In other news, rain contains water and Twitter is full of Nazis. More at ten.
I don’t want more Nazis at ten tho ):
