    You still get banned here too. The mods can disagree politically and just ban you as they can on reddit.

    Told another user to take Trump’s advice and drink bleach. He’s allowed to say it but apparently not me.

    Whatever. Reddit has always been a barely redeemable corpo platform. I’m hoping Digg comes back ActivityPub compliant like Threads and puts the final nail in that shithole’s corpse box.

    I received a 7 day ban for threatening violence. My comment was, “He should have spray-painted a swastika in red” in response to video of a guy who spray-painted “USA” on a presidential placard in Trump Tower. I’m done with Reddit after 11 years.

      Absolutely. I lost my 15 year account for using the phrase ‘burn it all down’ entirely metaphorically. They really, really didn’t like Canadians pushing back. Fuck those guys.

      I hope Reddit dies in a fire, and not a metaphorical one. One with the ownership group literally aflame. And I’d like to roast marshmallows over that fire.

      Less dumping ground and more release valve. The people Reddit is jettisoning are many of their more active and prodigious content creators and contributors. The site admins simply don’t want new human content anymore. They want passive observers who will consume advertisement content without creating drama.

      Yes it’s how I got here, and hopefully Lemmy doesn’t turn to shit the way reddit did because of its decentralized nature I hope

      Honestly that’s how I got here lol.

      Tried it out when the API changes were announced, but let’s be real, Lemmy doesn’t have as much content or user interaction.

      It’s allowed me to stop doom scrolling as much, but I do miss some niche communities

        You get used to it. Been here happily for coming on two years. Honestly, less content means I can’t scroll 24/7 which has turned into a positive for me.

        Fewer niche communities definitely sucks though. Time to start one I guess? :P

        But why would I want to make a new account on Reddit after getting banned for saying things that people need to hear?

        If Reddit wants some passive bullshit audience that can’t talk back, and that swallows bullshit posting, I’m good elsewhere.

          New to Lemmy and this is me to a T. Reddit just banned my 11+ year old account for expressing my anger at the continued fascist attacks on my country (Canada). So fuck em, I’m not going to bend over backwards trying to make an alt account they won’t flag, I’ll be sad for the Reddit of bygone days but it’s gone now, the new one is rotten to the core.

      I think it’s more like getting used to the freedoms of Lemmy increases the likelihood of popping up on the radar of some dubious Reddit admins.

    Can we talk about how screwed up that streak notification is? Let’s encourage people who show signs of unhealthy usage of the platform to further their addiction?

    You have a 300 day streak of using heroin, don’t stop now!

      Daily usage streaks isn’t a “screwed up” notification.

      Plenty of people read a newspaper everyday. Or check socials each day.

      A more accurate measure for unhealthy, addictive usage would be hours per day, or week.

    These days both Twitter and Reddit have wacky UI messages written by completely different teams. One team is all business-like as in “Here’s some stern warnings you’re not going to like.” The other team is all casual and wayyy too friendly and fellow-kidsy, like “Did someone say MEMES?” (to which most reasonable people respond “fuck you Elon/Spez, you’re not funny”)
