Goodbye, Reddit. I'm glad I left you, you help the wrong people have a platform

I left reddit because I was upset about them killing the RIF app during the API thing a few years back. It was a bit of a transition to get used to Lemmy but after weeks/months I got use to Lemmy and am more than happy to never use reddit again. I hope reddit dies. Every time they use the censorship hammer to silence users, it vindicates the existence of Lemmy and I welcome all former redditors. Also I definitely posted content on Lemmy that reddit would have censored.

currently here again because they recently removed r/all. I tried a while ago when they killed RIF but there wasn't enough content/users to really keep me engaged, and now there is.

I still have to sometimes post the content that I want to see on Lemmy. and I find a lot of benefits to a smaller community that doesn't seek out fake internet points.

That zoophile? Probbably u/spez, the reddit overlord, or one of his friends.

Nope, it was a user named Manglisaurus I think, probably spelt that wrong but like i said they haven't been banned. You can still find ghost stories about them on the r/okbuddypaleo subreddit lmao

At least you know what you did - not that it was ban-worthy! - I was inactive for a bit and when I tried to log in one day I found out my main account was banned. Logged into a joke alt I'd made in the past, and tried to find out what happened: boom, ban evasion! Now I'm IP blocked too and I still have no idea why.

Post evidence it is just a dumb story about nothing.

[–] Warm_Bowl_of_Peas@lemmy.world 1 points 8 hours ago

I can't really post evidence since, like I said, it's NSFW photos of literal animals so I can't show the post that I commented on that I was banned for
