“Reddit is publicly extending an olive branch to the moderator community that it largely enraged over recent weeks…But as you might expect, mods remain skeptical.”
Burn it down.
For real. I got on Reddit in 2009, I was a mod for awhile blah blah blah. It’s been going downhill for almost a decade. It was slow.
Last comment I made there I got a 3 day suspension on my account. A video of a guy standing in the street and knocking down a guy in his motorcycle, stealing his keys and refusing to give them back.
I said he should have punched the dude out or choked him. I mean this dude could have killed the guy on the bike. He was unhinged. So I got a ban for “inciting or promoting violence” or some bullshit.
But here’s the thing lol. You can post about punching Nazis all day long. Fuck Nazis. Punch every one you see. But the double standard is outrageous. This is the same reason I permanently deleted Facebook. Getting a ban for saying the word “bitch”. And I was quoting Jesse pinkman! We don’t need to be babysat on the fucking internet. It’s absolutely insane what these companies do.

I’ve been going on that site once every couple weeks to catch up on some videos and saw the one you just mentioned the other day. I kept thinking the same thing. Dude is taking your keys and causing you to be stranded. Hit him.
But the guy showed restraint, which is better for cops to take action when they arrive. But getting restricted for that comment is bs.
I once got banned from Reddit for saying that I wished someone would punch the colossal asshole Indiana attorney general in the nose as a sort of punny response to something he said himself. (I can’t remember what he said.) It was really clearly a joke. A bunch of people came to my defense and I was unbanned. I should have taken the hint then.
You been referred to the reddit suicide hotline yet? I have a few times.
Not the person you asked but yeah I’ve been referred to that many times.
Oh yes.
Same, but 2011 join date. Modded a bit and was very active. I got banned for warning someone that their phrasing could be a call to action.
I lost two accounts with a combined just-under-one-million karma for calling out a bot scam. Permanently banned, appeal refused. I can’t even create a new account. I’m shadowbanned no matter what I do.
We’re the product these companies are selling. Nothing of actual value was lost for you, but immense value was lost to them. Feels good.

It’ll burn itself when if we all just ignore them and don’t use them while simultaneously spreading word of Lemmy when in conversation with others online.
