“Come make friends on Reddit”
Hey you there reading this, I already upvoted all the anti-Reddit comments in this post, you can go rest instead
Proud to be part of the resistance
Maybe they shouldn’t have permabanned thousands of active users like me, with a 12 year account and nearly 1 million Karma. People like me built Reddit, and as soon as HitlerPig was inaugurated, the DOGE Goblin demanded that Reddit purge its membership. Now they’re stuck with bots, novelty accounts, punsters, Russian Propaganda Farmers, MAGA activists, etc.
Did you get any reason for the ban?
Yo france, you busy this evening? There are some new canvises we can paint on. A nice “Reddit ist so ein Pimmel” - germany
Looks like there’s enough space to write “lemmy” in there
Why don’t they just fire up some more bots?
Are those signa blocking windows
No they are remaking the building exterior so they put up a scaffolding, hidden behind the add and fake windows. It’s a common practice in Paris, though there are talks of banning the adds to reduce visual pollution
Is France making an effort to untether itself from US tech companies like some other parts of Europe are?
les autres
I prefer “lesbian with autism” merci beaucoup
What?
It means “thanks a lot”.
No, I meant why would you say “lesbian with autism”?
Now hear me out: we all put together some Money to Buy ads for lemmy lmao
Why? We don’t need the service to be popular. That’s the great thing about it being decentralised, it kind of doesn’t matter.
Also we don’t want a bunch of French people on here, speaking their strange heathen lingo.
Trop tard! Mouhahahahha!
I fear that Lemmy might not scale well. Many instances might die from it
I’m staying with my boyfriend because of his dog. Am I horrible?
Is there a Parisian who doesn’t do rock climbing, Pilates, or ceramics?
I’m going to the Maldives but I’m composting, does that make up for it?
Just between you and me, who’s ever bought fruit on the metro?
So, what do we do with the people on the wrong side of the escalator?
Has anyone ever found the exit at Chatelet, or is that a myth?
Oh good, I was starting to distrust my French.
These are all valid and important questions that need to be discussed… ;-)
That place is a doomer and mental illness circus.
This place is even more pessimistic though
Yeah Paris is shit
Are we any better though?
It’s been a backslide over there since the election.
Yeah, given how left leaning and US centric the place is, I can see how they’d lose their shit.
I was an /r Collapse member. I am VERY doomer.
Now let’s get together to save the world!
Much, much better. Just look at r/popular and tell me you don’t feel negative.
Oof.
Join, just so they can ban you for bullshit.
My favorite reddit ban was when I was making a very obvious joke about how white people suck or something, and some worthless dumbfuck called me racist and I got an immediate permanent ban.
It does not sound good.
join, just so they can ban you for calling a Nazi a Nazi.
Reddit is the most new-user-unfriendly site I have ever been to. You’ve got to farm an unknown amount of karma before you can post or comment in subreddits. There’s a reason I’m at Lemmy now. Fuck Reddit. (Also, 4chan is a toilet. The occasional nuggets of good stuff aren’t worth trawling through pages of shitposts for.)
reddit recently became hostile to new users, and inactive users(users that suddenly decide to use thier old accounts to comment) they just shadowban most of them now. the only people ive seen that succesful are the ones that are using other methods(not vpn) to hide thier device, fingerprinting, IP adress etc. even this is temporary, since reddit is also catching up to the other methods.
Reddit after banning literally everyone: “WE DID IT! WE SAVED REDDIT!”
That’s funny cause all but one of my alts was banned, which so happened to me the only account I didn’t use the same email address for. So I figured that email is the only tracking method they use. I’ve had no issue making new accounts under different address.
were using the same IP address, my last account is shadowbanned, after the great purge where they targetalled peoples multiple accounts.
Isn’t 4chan dead and gone?
It’s worse than ever. Once you work your way up to being able to say anything - BAN! It’s more of an echo chamber than ever before.
They don’t even let you see what you were banned for. Links to a comment that doesn’t exist within your ban notification
AI bans dont tell you that your what you were banned for, its always the generic “you have violated mutliple violations, on your ACCOUNTS” message. they also use AI moderation to shadowban people too, which i think is much more severe than the sitewide banning. they originally shadowban people for using ban evasion accounts, but now they are abusing to ban anyone indiscirminately(aside from a selected group of users).
i think reddit also gatekeep new users, and inactive users.
They are carefully curating their membership so it’s more MAGA-friendly. They’re turning it into Twitter.
you have summoned me?
The good gteen texts always end up on other platforms anyway.
And get reposted for decades to come
The fucking acronyms and in-jokes don’t help, either.
Moved here and haven’t looked back.
I do keep a Reddit account that is strictly used for informational/support type stuff (i.e. “help me figure out what type of widget I should buy for this task”). I avoid anything controversial on that account.
