    Trump is openly preparing to invade both Canada and Mexico and these motherfuckers are bitching about Musk being called what he is!

        Reddit is a massive social media, and Spez seems desperate to be at the same table as the likes of Zuckerberg. I think this sort of behaviour highlights it.

    I got perma banned from my OG account for engaging with ruzzian trolls. Apparently telling them they’d look good fertilizing sunflowers, and digging babushka a fresh latrine pit is “promoting violence”. No warnings, just straight to ban. Reddit allows obvious ruzzian gas lighters, but bans those who call them out. That is Reddit today, a hotbed of ruzzian and nazi propaganda.

      Same here, I simply made a comment about “the Muscovites receiving a dose of their own medicine” and fucking Russian shill, Putin Bot and/or MAGAt reported me. To top it off, I did not use a single swear word in the comment. Fuck Russia and Reddit.

        i always commented on many of those subs, how alot of them are just russian bots/trolls, and people respond to these posts like its an actual person doing it, no its all russia. Half of the comments are more than likely russian bots, if reddit actually DOES ITS JOBS, reddit would be a very quiet place. i get that theres alot from US propaganda farms, but it pales in comparison to russia.

      i got temp ban, for reporting trolls, lol. apparently reporting more than once in arbitrary amount of time, is considered report abuse. its the same type of comments you hear from .ml false, pushing a botty narrative.

        It’s derogatory. It’s a play on the stupid “Z” they had on all their vehicles when they invaded Ukraine. “Cuntistan” would probably have got me banned. Anyway, I’ll misspell the names of any country I loathe, as much as I like :)

        There was no death threat from me, and what else do you suggest when dealing with a gas lighter or out and out liar? Just lie back and take it?

      probably the latter, i was permabanned on 5+accs at once, when i was temp banned on an old one. found out reditt was deliberately doing a massive sweep to eliminate as much accounts as possible early FEB.

      too risky to even make a new account or even comment on most sub with my only one that is partially flagged. i tested by commented a bunch on a niche sub that isnt monitored heavily by filters or mods.

      That’s an interesting point. I wonder how many Lemmy users have had nothing to do with Reddit. I can’t imagine that many

        There are a few. One thing to point out is that Mastadon users can (albeit in a clunky fashion) view and interact with Lemmy communities. I could see someone who is only into microblogging services interacting on a community here when they would have never signed up for reddit.

    I came here at the suggestion of others on reddit. I’m still trying to figure out how to find the groups/info that I’m interested in. Looking forward to conversations where comments are unnecessarily removed.

      depends on which ones, niche subs on reddit arnt found on lemmy sadly, and some are barely posting. i think by now you can guess which communities tha tpeople have come from, are the ones that were banned in large numbers.

      mainly politics, news, reddit, tech,etc. i would avoid any conservative subs, or any subs that very biased to one extreme.

      We are still pretty small (but growing!) so keep in mind more niche or focused communities may be less active. A common example is posting in a game community (like !games@sh.itjust.works) instead of looking for a specific community. However, if you’re dedicated and could post a few times a week you can make your own community and people will come.

      The best resource for looking for communities is still Lemmyverse as it tracks all communities (your instance search will only retrieve results from its users subscriptions.

    I recently deleted my +10y (cant remember anymore how old it was) old account. I had not logged in with it since the first exodus.

    In my time, I started from the old reddit, saw the changes to more modern UI twice. I “collaborated” with the pixel art canvas event. (twice?) (last was fullout among us dithering) And finally saw the full revolt against spez that ended my journey there. (plus the complete enshittification of the reddit app)

        Hey, how about we leave the needless gendering of everything on reddit maybe? Gentle reminder that not everything needs to be gendered and (especially on Lemmy) there are lots of folks who might be put off in some way by this, because it feels very much (at least to me) like something (particularly white cishet) dudes say to each other and not something that applies to folks of all genders and communities, like “friend” for example. Not trying to imply that you are any of those things (even someone who is okay being called dude, I’m not calling you that, intending to be giving a vibe on the statement without judging you) just that that’s what I think of when I see that and I wouldn’t necessarily mind if someone said it to me (especially in person; I’m currently masc presenting at the least, not sure yet where I actually land) but thinking of others who might feels like something that happens on Lemmy that differentiates the community at large from reddit. Not saying it’s always like that, check my recent comments if you want to see examples of how some folks are def still trolling here, but it’s better and I hope we can continue to wear that diversity and respect as a badge of honor sort of.

    I deleted my reddit account yesterday. I used Revedit and I realised that most of the comments I had made on there had been removed or hidden without me ever realising…

      I was blown away by how many completely normal comments (just part of discussions, not even political) have been removed. Pretty sure reddit automod is broken and I’m not sure if reddit devs are even aware of it

        They likely are, but management is also likely rejecting any attempts to fix it.

      I deleted my account yesterday too, I came to Lemmy on the API Exodus and very occasionally checked Reddit but never came around to delete my account until now. Same with my Twitter account.

    Tesla is losing a pile of cash, anyone know how low it needs to go until Musk is going to get a margin call and the whole thing comes crumbling down? He has leveraged himself to the max.
