    Holy shit. I got banned from reddit for saying the Boeing starliner astronauts should fear for their lives cuz Boeing. It was a joke, did not want it to become true! Hopefully they come home safe!

      Wow that’s actually crazy that they banned you for that lmao they couldn’t make it any more obvious they got bought off by private companies, yikes. I’m glad Lemmy isn’t prone to that, inherently by design.

        I got banned by a bot that found my comment and some human approved it. I deleted everything after that. 15 years, almost all of those with direct financial support.

          They autodelete any posts or comments I have tried to make on the SteamDeck subreddit, even ones highly praising Valve, and yet reddit is still filled with spam bots. I don’t have to worry about that at all here. It’s incredible how much of a shithole reddit is now.

      Reddit is, in fact, a joke.

      A total ban like mine?

      I got banned for going to sniffies and bringing people from there to r/Seattlegay, which I started during the pandemic.

      They banned me site wise on all my accounts and all my devices.

        They banned me site wise for saying that riot police should quit their jobs following RvW. But all the right wing trolls spewing vitriol were perfectly acceptable.

          I made a bunch of comments critical of the site and then banned myself (deleted account) before they could ban me. “You can’t fire me, I quit!”

            I basically did the same. Got banned for a week for calling trump a shitbag, then circumvented the ban with a new account and called the mods shitbags for it and got permabanned.

        It was a 3 day ban, but my first in 15 years on the site, and with “Reddit Pro” membership or whatever they called it. Yeah no thanks.
