I tried: with r/hasan_piker, thedeprogram(rip), tankiethedeprogram, shitliberalssay. I like Reddit. It’s the only social media I’ve ever used. But I can’t stand it anymore!! I’ve simply learned too much to entertain in American ““leftist”” politics. I’m in NORTH North Canada for reference. Thank you to Lemmy for existing. I’d still be scrolling Reddit without you! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

    I got banned from reddit anyway. I called another redditor a child molester, because he was waxing lyrical about how hot underage girls are. I got banned for insulting him. He did not get banned. Reddit is a cesspit.

      Ugh I hate how normalized that is on reddit. I never read comments on posts with women/girls in them because I know the comments are going to be disgusting

      I once got a tempban for trolling a literal nazi subreddit, but the subreddit itself was not banned

        I’ve been permabanned since the oct 7 thing happened and voiced my opinions to some zionists. I’ve been frothing at the mouth ever since. I like it here and have been here since well before, but there are few opportunities to insult the zionists and I greatly desire to do so.

      Same, I don’t feel too watched here. I don’t really get much paranoia on this website

      Basically this. I wish more mods of leftist subs would mention Lemmy backups in the subreddit information.

        I’ve thought so too, and was thinking it would be good to suggest this to a few subs’ mods, but with r/Lemmy getting banned i wonder if they’d be wary to do that

      This made me laugh. That’s how I found Lemmy. Maybe it was even your comment that lead me here

    I’ll still pop into niche hobby subreddits to get ideas and guidance on stuff.

      Lemmygrad IS a lemmy server.

      (I am sorry if this is sarcasm and I didn’t get it. That would be my fault then.)

    I lost my account password years ago, but I’ll still check old./r/all now and again to see what’s going on over there. feels like it’s uh… declining. hit it less and less since they’re now blocking some nodes of my VPN and it isn’t worth the hassle of finding a usable VPN outlet.

    I hate how Reddit stops me from posting too much. I have ADHD so this really pisses me off.

    The manufactured outrage against Hasanabi for false dog abuse allegations and the brigade that infected all subreddits yesterday just consolidated my choice to leave lemmy for lemmygrad and Hexbear.

      Not sure really why anyone cares about Hasan at all. You can’t be led by the mouth if you don’t keep a horse bit.

        It’s not about Hasan alone. The entire reddit got brigaded yesterday to the point where niche subreddits were getting posts and comments about this topic. It exposed the obvious planning that went into it.
