Paul McCartney’s official Reddit account seems to have been banned. The account, u/paulmccartney, had just dropped a set of photos and videos from the first night of his shows at the Fonda Theatre. It went straight into the r/PaulMcCartney subreddit. Then, not long after, the whole thing disappeared.
I’ve never been banned from any instance or even community here on Lemmy. Every time I see people complain about it, I can’t help but wonder what they got banned for.
I got banned from one community ages ago for “being a terrible person”. But that was only once, and I post a lot everywhere, so it might just be an outlier mod. IMHO the important difference is that I can’t get banned from Lemmy entirely for saying “Luigi Mangione”.
I was banned from a users communities that I’ve never joined because I made a joke about there being far left states on the west coast. Either geography is not their forte or they were ban happy for anyone who doesn’t favor the right states.
Just because you don’t know it’s happening doesn’t mean it’s not happening. Like I mentioned, take some time to watch PTB.
What is PTB? Pardon my ignorance
Ye Power Trippin Bastards. It should probably be a required join for new accounts, it’s great to see how both ends of the candle are burning.
