I still have no idea why I got permanently banned. The interestingasfuck subreddit said I had multiple violations across accounts—something vague about participating in the Trump subreddit. Apparently, if you so much as post in that subreddit—whether you’re agreeing with them or talking shit to the MAGAts—then go back to interestingasfuck or any other sub with the same rules, they’ll permaban your account. And not just that one—they’ll ban any new accounts you try to make too. So honestly… I guess I DO know why I was banned, but compared to the vitriol I’ve seen on there, mine was not warranted. I’ve even appealed. Fucking hate Reddit now. Cowards.

Good riddance

Good, fuck Reddit

Good, Reddit treats its users like preschoolers. If you say something even slightly against their rules, they ban you.

Let me know when spez is living under a bridge, so I can go piss in his cardboard-box shelter.

didn't we post this like two weeks ago, it's gonna sit in my feed for another week

Plunge baby, plunge.

Lets take a platform driven by community participation and ostracize community users. Yeah that'll work out well.

Reddit getting Digged and me likey.

Aww, did Spez trade the family cow for some "magic" beans?

Good luck rebuilding the farm now, buddy.

I remember the early days of Reddit when it really felt like a community project. Back then, they had the goodwill necessary that Redditors would have personally financed a chunk of the costs of running particular Subreddits. Not anymore. That goodwill is gone.

The censorship going on there is crazy. I understand a site needs to tamp down on violent rhetoric but they crossed the line into absurdity. They banned me for calling out the racism in the GOP platform.

Spez fundamentally misunderstands what Reddit is and who it belongs to: the people making the posts and providing the content. The more he alienates the users, the less value Reddit will have. He's shot himself in the foot and he's getting ready to fire again.

It's not just the AI bubble, it's a distinct lack of faith in Huffman and as a CEO. He's not forward-thinking enough, he hasn't understood where the company's value lies, and he's ridiculously distracted by the latest shiny tech things (reddit NFT avatars, reddit crypto, reddit AI).

I fully expect Google to buy reddit at some point, exclusively harvesting all the info for their search engine, all the content for their AI models, and all the submission/view/voting data for their user profiles (what are you interested in, what do you think of these concepts, where are you connecting from, here are more ads we can send you, and these are arguments that might sway you in purchasing or other decisions).

Tends to happen when you ban all of your users

If you deleted your content, reminder to go back and check it again. Despite running a deletion from my GDPR export data, yesterday I noticed a bunch of comments suddenly showing up on my account that weren't there before so I i had to rerun the deletion.

Sucks to suck. Fuck Spez.

Spez can suck a taint. I was on there forever and immediately bounced once that bullshit banning stuff started happening. Should have left sooner but that was the final straw

Their only utility now is in five year old comment threads discussing niche topics, and that can only stay relevant so long.

A "dip" is when the stock goes back up. This is a correction

lol. It's only going to get worse. The site used to be the top place to look something up, now it's just going to be full of deleted answers and disappointment.

Maybe if they didn't ban their (majority) liberal users for having "opinions" on the current government, after nonstop rhetoric from conservatives.

I hope reddit dies.
