Watch Reddit die. Pray for Reddit to die. Help Reddit die.

Rules

  1. No Reddit shills or trolls. But if you have a good argument for why Reddit should live, we'll hear you out.
  2. Try to be civil and intelligent. Be angry at Reddit, not each other.
  3. Provide evidence as much as possible without doxxing or harassing people.
  4. Should probably avoid linking directly to Reddit. Use archive.today and archive.org links.

Will add more rules as needed.

So, I've now had a 9 year account and a 13 year account both permabanned.

They've linked them as the same user and banned me for a benign post on r/pics.

I lost all faith in reddit when they changed the api then Relay for reddit stopped working.

Base model app is shit.

Comments constantly erase and empty endpoint error.

Can't even say 'I like that player two energy on super Mario bros', because that's 'violent'.

I've posted tens of thousands of comments and only recently had issues.

Got banned for saying 'Elon simps in our midst' referring to mods....who proved my point.

And finally now, they are paywalling shit soon.

Adios.

Anyway, I left digg in the great exodus for reddit, now this looks like my new home.

Rant over lol.

I got out recently too, albeit before actually getting ban-hammered. Given how new I am, it's not really my place, but..: Welcome!

Probably would've banned eventually

Yup, and I know it. The alternative was an unpalatable amount of self-censorship I had no interest in, and even that wouldn't be a guarantee due to opaque moderation practices.

I don't have a problem with reasonable limits on behavior, but I can't play by the rules if nobody wants to tell me what they are and / or said rules can capriciously change from one moment to the next with no advance warning or notice.
