I had two Reddit accounts for 10+ years, never received a ban on either account, even a temp ban. One was only for NSFW, weed and music discussion, the other was used much more broadly.
In the last few months I got banned on my primary account 3 times, twice for 3 days and once for 7 days.
All of the comments I was banned for were 100% factual, not specifically directed at any user, short and to the point but anti-Nazi/ICE/Fascism/Trump/Pedo in their content.
Reddit claimed I incited violence and harassed individuals, ultimately claimed because I had two accounts I was participating in ban evasion.
After this happened I created another account using a different internet connection, device, email, browser type, and VPN, it was banned in <5 hours for… ban evasion!
So fuck Reddit, they are complicit in all the nonsense going on and banning people for commenting about it.
Ha I left after a temp ban that was just as poor. So I created this account, then once they permanently banned me (for agreeing with a Muslim person about a peaceful action from a Muslim) I didn’t bother trying to create another one, that was enough for me.
I’m glad they did to be honest, we can see from the outside now what’s going on and I’d probably still be there if they didn’t; the content on many topics is quite broad.They’re owned and controlled and I suspect a bit of scraping so to speak is going on, not just from AI either.
Now we help build this.
