Finally made the jump. Reddit is a right-wing cesspool of censorship.

Exactly the same. I got critical of the right and all of a sudden banned for violence ? After 12 years ? And me NEVER calling for harm to anything.

But I got hyper critical of the right and that’s what did it.

Reddit is and has failed.

It’s so awesome seeing all these new people here bailing from reddit. Welcome!

Someone posted this and that’s honestly scary. I hope more people abandon this sinking ship of Reddit.

And that is why I’m here now. Hello fellow travellers!

10 years on reddit, surprised about my comments never getting the same traction as identical comments. 3 days ban for insinuating a billionaire performing a Nazi salute may indeed be a Nazi, second ban for insinuating violent action sometimes needs to be taken in defense of democracy. Permaban for (politely and positively) judging the looks of someone that asked to be judged through a photography, and clearly needed lo lift up their self-esteem.

I rage quit reddit and delete my account that I opened long ago with the Google account I have recently cancelled.

I decide that maybe it deserves a second chance, so I create a new account with the email I account I host myself in my own server with my own domain.

The exact same comments I posted, with the exact same content and intention now get thousands of upvotes (so clearly, I had been shadowbanned for years)

Fuck them. Hello community, looking forward to have constructive interactions here.

And that was the final push to get me to make an account over here. Fucking hell

It warms my heart seeimg all these 👶 emojis! Welcome all new lemmyheads!

Yeah that was my last straw with reddit

I got that warning yesterday and it finally pushed me to make a Lemmy account.

That’s why I’m here.

This is my first comment from Lemmy. Thanks again to whomever suggested it.

So if the content is banned how are people up voting it?

I’m loving this. I had almost 15 years without so much as a warning and then suddenly several 3 day bans, a 7 day ban and a perma ban. They don’t want people commenting negatively towards fascism.

One would think that banned content couldn’t be voted upon. Sounds like reddit is using any excuse to censor any use other than “sponsored”.
