Basically what I mean is, did you also come here from reddit?
I came here after I got my Reddit account banned permanently. And the thing is, I don’t exactly know why I got banned. Nor what I did wrong. I always tried to follow the rules, post and comment appropriately and nicely, but on New Year’s Day last week, I got a message simply saying "Your account have been permanently banned for violating the rules.
But when I replied asking what rule or rules I unknowingly broke, they just messaged me back saying “you got banned because you violated the community guidelines”. So now I’m here.
What about you? Are you also a Reddit Refugee?
Originally I came with the API changes, I had only been using reddit for two months though. If I had known about Lemmy I don’t think I would have had the desire to use reddit in the first place.
Same story got hooked on Reddit because I could access content without an account. Turns out: you can do the same with Lemmy, the results just aren’t that high on a web browser.
