    Tesla is losing a pile of cash, anyone know how low it needs to go until Musk is going to get a margin call and the whole thing comes crumbling down? He has leveraged himself to the max.

    Never thought Reddit is so shady.

    • I literally just repeated a questionable source of a linked article (like “fox news” as a comment to highlight bias). -> 7 day ban
    • Then, i admit bad action: commented via long-time second account one single but wholesome comment during that period. (to someone in need in the same sub, giving a tip on how to handle bad lifesituation. not realizing its the same forum) -> permaban in that forum
    • 7 days of trying to talk as diplomatic and giving as possible to the mods, even revealing my innocence of my second account
      • ip ban on all my accounts without any other talks. (prolly the a mod forwarded that to reddit and they dont care at all about nuance)

    had like 80k karma & original content posted over the years, but in the end: Gave me energy to join this community here and transfer.

    Good riddance. Less american now, F Sillicon Valley more power to the people

      I was in a similar situation karma-wise. I was happy there until I saw how ruthless the mods could be. This is a better alternative to all that.

      Welcome. I was on Reddit for more than a decade. It was fun while it lasted but we are all better here on Lemmy.

      i was annoyed how many foxnews articles was being posted on subs, do you people take fox news as serious enws?

      some niche subs are super sensitive if you contradict them, something like r/gym bans you for even mentioning PEDS. i was responding someone qouting rob machelenny from isaip, said if he was juiced he would get that big, which was true by his own admission.

        Ye im still somewhat looking into reddit (also to just realize what similar communities I should follow here)

        There’s just so many whack websites as basis for discussion. Like newsgeek or other tabloids and people act like it’s the most official matter.

        Feels like everyone only reads the headline and starts mashing their keyboards. And your reception tends to be less text = lie. The recent behavior and interaction feels similar to today’s Twitter in terms of rage induction, just for nerds

      Welcome! Similar story. I upvoted on a long standing account and got warned. Not sure which upvote did it. I’ve got a few hundred thousand karma across accounts. Had a fair share of OC hitall. Pretty typical engaged user.

      Then I tried to help someone in a niche sub with buying bedding. And auto admin mod kept removing my comment post. Then the sub mods messaged me and said they tried to make my comment visible multiple times and couldn’t override the admin.

      Then I followed mod advice and reposted my helpful comment only to get an auto banned on all accounts from the admin for “spam” (for two comments? Really?). The sub admin were able to override the ban and reinstate me since I did nothing wrong.

      It’s way too frustrating to deal with. Out of the past year like 800 normal/helpful comments of mine have been shadow removed or admin removed.

      At that point I’m just talking to myself. After 12 years, I never thought I’d leave Reddit but here we are. Happy to be on Lemmy.

    Reddit removed it or mods removed it? Cause if Reddit removed it then they’d remove it from marchagainstnazis too.

    I deleted my reddit account yesterday. I used Revedit and I realised that most of the comments I had made on there had been removed or hidden without me ever realising…

      I deleted my account yesterday too, I came to Lemmy on the API Exodus and very occasionally checked Reddit but never came around to delete my account until now. Same with my Twitter account.

    Because Reddit has chosen the wrong side of history.

    Just like multiple German companies did when Hitler and his fascists rose to power.

    The Left has used and abused “Nazi” so much in recent years that it doesn’t really mean anything more than, ‘someone I don’t like’.
