I think I finally reached my breaking point with reddit (about time). Earlier this month the humorless admins of /r/teslamotors banned me for posting a video of my custom charge port cover. A day or so later I mistakenly posted on the sub using my secondary account. That’s on me. The /r/teslamotors admins gave me a permaban and reddit gave me 7 day site ban. I can take my lumps so whatever.
However, apparently I commented today on /r/teslamotors using the account that received the permaban. Dumbass reddit gave me another 7 day site ban for ban evasion. WTF? Either a software bug allowed me to comment or /r/teslamotors lifted my ban for some reason.
Neither of those constitute ban evasion IMHO. I’m also tired of using old.reddit.com in phone browser since they killed apis.
I got not only a permaban, but an IP ban for saying ‘Punching nazis is a moral good’ in a thread about people discussing how best to drive cars into crowds of peaceful protesters (with diagrams).
No one else in the thread got banned.
Fuck reddit, fascist shithole. Used to be the best site on the internet till the alt-right took over.
I never thought that I’d be deleting my reddit account before facebook.
You should delete your Facebook too
and xitter. I don’t post anything on there and only read shit that linked from elsewhere.
and host your own lemmy instance :D
What sub was that in?
it was one of the ‘dank’ subs that I found browsing /new, not dankmemes but adjacent.
/dankwolfpack or something
I got a permaban for telling a Nazi to follow Hitler’s example and shoot himself. Oopsie. 10/10 would do it again.
(That’s actually what triggered me to look for Reddit alternatives, years ago. Or rather the fact that they left my mod account unbanned, even banning all the others.)
