reddit says he wasn't banned but temporarily restricted during a password reset requirement, which showed him as banned due to a reddit bug
that bug has been ongoing since last year, it resulted in a ton of bans. one of my last accounts during the purge has the "password request" the first time he freed up my account from "ban" and then a 2nd time it shadowbanned me. something tells me its somewhat intentional to cull the numbers on reddit.
How does that biowaste bin fire still have users who can read and write?
Because there are still a lot of content creators, especially in the technology field.If the process of sharing code and projects and receiving feedback took place on another platform, nobody would use Reddit.That's my only reason.
The other night I was watching John Stewart and he made an interesting comment. He said that reddit only recently became usable because it was too gross before. Insane especially from him
reddit got worst with all the AI/botting spamming, and reddit banning people, why does he think it got better ?
That whole API shitshow didn’t help…
Jon liked the censorship.
probably has due with being critical of israel no doubt, i notice he acted very strangely when people started to critcized israel.
whoever has the most users has most of the users. until they decide they don't have any users, they will continue to have this true statement be correct constantly
Your pictures are welcome here, Paul!
It's funny how a lot of the complaints I'm reading here are about how Reddit is unfriendly toward left-leaning people but all the right wing people complain about how Reddit is a cesspool of liberal propaganda.
It just goes to show that the platform plays both sides just to promote hate and anger.
I visited after I got banned and the default posts that show up without logging in (therefore uncurated) were all so irritating that I had to assume they were all ragebait.
yea just like other social media platforms, they allow astroturfing thats why its both sides getting triggered.
It's because the platform is full of people who can't handle someone not agreeing with them, so anyone who says they're wrong is immediately labelled as the enemy.
Worse, they allow these same people into power while the real owners of the site make money out of the inhumanoids overrunning the whole system.
Reddit is hostile towards left-leaning people, and it is also a cesspool of liberal propaganda. Liberals fucking hate leftists, even more than they hate fascists, because liberalism is fundamentally pro-capitalism. That's why the mainstream media is currently crashing out about people like Hasan Piker, who actually represent a growing base of support for socialism, and they run every possible smear they can.
Fux you spez.
TIL Sir Paul McCartney is on Reddit.
Was on Reddit
My three notable bans:
- Banned from politics for quoting the Constitution on treason punishment
- Banned from gym for arguing with a "pro" claiming there are no stupid exercises and bad form doesn't exist.
- Banned from child free for saying not every one that is child free hates children with the passion of a burning sun and wants them all to die.
Edit: I forgot to mention when time number 2 happened. I asked the mod "Why was I banned?" Then my entire account got a 3 month suspension for "Mod abuse" by the admins.
ooh the gym sub is quite awful, they act as if people losing their weight and getting jacked suddenly is not due to steroids and act as long "arduous battle" they do ban for mentioning PEDs too, bitch you people cheated your way to that body aka shortcut, instead of taking months-years to get that body. one post i came across, the guy was very overweight and suddenly hes lean and all buff from roids/peds and act as if he got that all on his own journey, i think it took less than a year for that. i can see 20 somethings getting a body similar to that if they already thin and workout all the time. but a 300+lb going to a muscular body in that time.
Heh, I was also banned for the same reason as you - quoting the exact text of the constitution to say what should happen to insurrectionists. My appeal was denied in seconds.
The time before that it was during the presidential debate live watch threads, and there was a portion of the broadcast where the camera dipped away from the speaker, so I wrote "kill the cameraman!", an obviously non-serious statement in reference to the subreddit /r/killthecameraman, and got banned for that. That was only a three week suspension I think. The mod who banned me also handled my appeal as well, promptly ignored.
So, in conclusion, Reddit banned McCartney for posting images from his own concert in his own subreddit? Wild...
