Paul McCartney’s official Reddit account seems to have been banned. The account, u/paulmccartney, had just dropped a set of photos and videos from the first night of his shows at the Fonda Theatre. It went straight into the r/PaulMcCartney subreddit. Then, not long after, the whole thing disappeared.
I honestly don’t know how anyone stays on Reddit very long. They permaban people for ANYTHING these days. They abdicated their site to psychopathic, power-tripping mods.
Just for context, Ghislane Maxwell was a Reddit mod.
It’s not even worth lurking there. Every post is just five “original” comments, and then everything below those are people repeating the same five comments a hundred times.
That was a thing WAY before AI and bots tho…
Absolutely.
The new bots just add to the cacaphony of mindless comments.
Puns, so many puns…
And their bans really stick. If you piss them off enough, they connect every account you’ve ever had, somehow, and the ones they miss, if you log in it’s a matter of days before they catch on.
It’s kind of impressive, actually.
I know. When I got permabanned after 12 years and a million Karma, I started using a new account, and lasted about 3 months. After that, they tracked me down faster and faster. The last one permabanned me in minutes before I could post my first message. They got my number now, and it’s probably gotten even tighter with AI.
17 years, maybe 50 accounts, 1 major sub, every time. You get psychotically drunk ONE TIME…
lol
I hear ya…
