So my username on reddit was u/IAmUser1234567 I had 17k+ Karma, i didn’t do anything they just banned my account. Now i guess they have created a digital fingerprint or marked my ip address, because if i create a new account it gets banned almost instantly.

I am loving lemmy(using Voyager on my android phone) so much. Reddit anyways now just contains shity cringe content, it is becoming like insta, I am happy to join lemmy family :)

    I have seen people who got banned on lemmy who deserved it say this (there are most likely a lot of cases on reddit where people were banned for a bad reason, but saying that you didnt do anything doesnt mean much)

    Isnt karma meaningless? I have gotten more from a single bad joke on a popular community

    Isnt ip banning a common way to get around people using alt accounts?

      I got banned from a sub, didn’t know, year later commented on that popular front page sub from an alt, every account I have was instantly perma banned with no appeal. (Just a bot that auto responds no)

      I think my account was banned, but don’t know for sure. I left during the API bullshit.

      Definitely didn’t do anything against the rules.

      I made fun of AI. Bot banned me. Def banned with IP cuz using a VPN on a backup device was fine. However, I figure if they’re that petty to ban, then fuck them! I had 150k+ karma over 10 years. Sad to lose the maker communities, and tech swaps, but whatever. Fucking BS.
