what would Reddit need to do to get you to go back (beehaw.org)

I'm not trying to convince anyone to go back i promise, quite the contrary actually cause I think spez plans to just decrease the cost of the API and act like it was a bargain deal sacrifice while not solving any of the issues at all

But, when I think about it even if spez did actually listen and reverse all changes I don't think i want to go back to Reddit cause from what Ive seen Lemmy is just friendlier and less :Be Corporate Friendly: I would honestly love it if Lemmy did a project like r/place one of these days so we could see what the internet is actually like instead of what happened in 2022 (I really did enjoy what a bunch of communities did but when the mods started abusing their powers to make it corporate r/place lost so much meaning) but i am curious since i'm not going back is there anything Reddit can do to make you go back to Reddit?

They help shut down bigoted and hateful communities. Sounds good.

Buuut they're biased. Anything that's pro-ccp, pro-stalin, or even pro-holodomor is politely ignored by them. Likewise, they also operate racist subreddits towards white ethnic groups and encourage self-harm and suicide for vulnerable men.

There are also rumours of AHS posting ToS-violating content on subs they dislike, such as CP. Of course these don't have much substance aside from the fact that AHS previously trolled The_Donald by "leaking" a false document to The_Donald mod-team (meaning posting false content on other subs is something they have done).

I was able to find these couple links on the first few page of AHS, so I'm not sure how true that is.

Besides, following this to it's conclusion, if we are going to ban mods for doing damage to reddit (being biased), every subreddit would need to get nuked because everybody has biases.

What is the evidence for this?

I'm looking for more than just rumors.

Do you have a source for this?
