Just found this space, I’m trying to play around with this platform. Can anyone help to explain?

    They’ll ban you because of your opinion. If you disagree with the wrong user or mod, you get banned from the subreddit or the whole site.

    Fuck r/cordcutters and fuck r/news

      I dared to question how Nazis were still alive; instant permaban to my 10+ year account. They are more interested in defending Nazis than they are removing them.

        Well there was a video on r/news where a group of cops beat sonebody pretty bad, body cam footage I think.

        I commented “I hope those cops get what they deserve” you know like criminal charges of some sort. Oh no, reddit was perfectly fine with cops being bad cops.

        That was my secondary account oh well.

          And any recourse/appeal is not guaranteed a response, nor will you know if it is ever looked at. Nuts, especially since there are subs which I was on and had built a large reputation for trading, one of which no new users can register on. Fun loss of earnings from that day forward.

            I was never really worried about reputation or virtual points. I just tried to contribute to conversations and be respectful. But Reddit has gone down hill. Soon it’ll be dead like MySpace.

              Mine was for trading, which was profitable for me. I needed that reputation/review score for people to trust me. Oh well.

      Note that you can get banned from specific communities or instances, just not from Lemmy itself, as long as you are on a permissive instance or your own instance.
