I found Lemmy thanks to a guy on reddit wich answered to my comment. I said that we leftists generally lacked a place where we could express some opinions without te fear of being banned. infact Reddit moderation (both admins and mods) suck and doing their “job” and there are instances of people being banned just for saying something completely normal or just some bugs. I am still active on Reddit but would like to make the Lemmy community grow so mabye it can become and actual alternative.
Sorry for any disturb, bye :3
P.S.
Ban evasion control is stupid and I fucking hate permabans, since they are so common for the minimal stuff.
10+ years on Reddit. Never banned on any subreddit or Reddit itself, ever. First came here during the 2023 API controversy. Went back to Reddit since the anime community was pretty small here, and I could still use my own API key for 3rd party apps.
Came back to Lemmy a week or two ago due to this bullshit. I’m not affected yet as I still have my own API key, so I’ll be hopping back and forth between Reddit and Lemmy. But I know my time on Reddit is limited.
I just hope Lemmy and the rest of the Fediverse is polished up by the time of the next Reddit exodus. But based on the most recent API change, I think Reddit has learned to make smaller changes over long periods of time over one major change that angers everyone all at once.
yea i noticed that too, reddit did multiple massive purges this year alone all the way from election day. they saw to many people being purged, so now they make smaller background moderations. like deleting comments/posts unilateraly, shadowbanning instead.
im not surprised that reddit had to replace IRL engagement with fake bots posts.
