One of the most recurring things I see here is the mods are at wits end with Reddit Admins again. They've given up a lot of leverage in doing another blackout, but they really need to ask themselves what they have to gain being unpaid volunteers for a website clearly working against its users.

I hope he does something stupid like buy Reddit.

It looks like this is the ex-redditor handshake thread. Did anyone start here without coming from Reddit? I heard about Lemme during the IPO fallout but didn’t pursue it until the mass shadow ban rollout.

I’m also still jumping back and forth, but that’s only because the big content creators for hobby stuff are still on Reddit. Once they migrate, I’ll likely delete my account.

The same mods who arbitrarily ban users without showing what rule they claim was broken?

Why don’t we have similar class solidarity?

Thank fuck I deleted my account when they "accidentally" banned a bunch of subreddits that were related to trans or LGBTQ folk. I found that disgusting.

Yeah, I'd deleted my Reddit posts and then my account in November. I was already irked at what they did to their API, and then the Orange Dingbat got elected and I decided it was enough.

Later on, I went back, but only to lurk, but since many of the specialised subs require that you join in able to read posts makes it pretty unusable at this point.

I miss the old Reddit; I was there for over a decade. But here we are, building a new place for ourselves.

My posts and comments were being censored too. Nothing related to Musk nor politics. Good thing I switched over. This is my new home.

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

I'm amazed any of you get told why you were banned

[–] DFX4509B_2@lemmy.org 10 points 1 week ago

I'm not and never was banned from there, however I left on my own accord after this happened, as if all their other enshittification didn't reinforce that decision.

[–] TwinTitans@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

The mods on Reddit are a joke anyway. But still, pretty messed up.

I never believed reptilian conspiracy theories but now every time i see his photo and his eyes remind me of reptilian. So what if it is true? What if them ultra rich with true background story how they climbed ladder of power and success are actual reptilians who make regular earth humans do crazy shit. What if? Because nothing else controls people on the planet but ultra rich. Ultra rich do not go to wars and usually do not deal directly with poor common man. They live in their own world behind the walls similar like in the movie "In time". Putin does not go to war neither his children, or trump. They send poor/uneducated or impressionable people to spill the blood of others.
