    No, I was targeted. I would say anything eventually and it would trigger a 24 hour ban near immediately. Then I’d appeal, win the appeal, come back to say one thing and BAM suspended within the hour.

    I’m pretty sure I was on some list. My comments would get thousands of upvotes. I ran economy for a fucking minute (by way of being the first to respond to propaganda posts). Every time maga would attempt their bullshit I was there in a minute to respond to it. Then these suspensions kept happening, and eventually I started getting suspensions for months old posts immediately after an appeal went through.

    I know it sounds crazy but I’m telling you, this was a targeted thing and I’m not the only one.

      This was my experience as well. Definite targetting. Most of the bans coming after being critical of Capitalism. The Reddit incels and rightoids like to whinge that Reddit is anti-right wing and moderates those viewpoints into oblivion, but it’s just cognitive dissonance or gaslighting. You can do just about anything short of direct threats or doxxing on Reddit and be just fine, as long as you don’t question that which is unquestionable, i.e. Capitalism. Even inside some very socialist or left-leaning subreddits you see this.

    Got banned twice recently. First time was for using kirk as a verb and the second time for pointing out the irony of israel working with nazi sympathizers to genocide muslims.

      there is a way, but its much more convoluted. different IP/device and browser is the usual method, as long as you are not repeating the same exact pattern as before. but why spend that money anyways, the only people that do are the ones using reddit to drive traffic to thier own sites/OF agency, of whom reddit is constantly playing cat and mouse in detecting them. i also have supsicion reddit preferentially dont ban aggresively against propaganda bots as much as the ones i mentioned above.

    Someone posted something like Trump should die. Not exactly those words but the gist. I replied no, he should stroke out and live, suffering in a body he can’t control.

    Permaband.

    I got banned for visiting my mother. No really. I decided to log on from her house, and the anti-bot bot noticed I was using a different IP address and flagged me for being a bot. Did the little dance to confirm I’m a real person, which resulted in a permanent ban. Thanks Reddit!

    I wasn’t banned, but I rolled over after 3rd party apps were taken away on the day they stopped working. I only use the app for it so taking that away made it pretty easy to stop and no i wasnt going to use their own because they forced my hand. Apps were limited on lemmy at that time and had to wait like 4 months before the one i used to use was released, but it was worth it.

      Same. I was a Lurker+, reading a lot of content and discussion but only contributing and commenting to a few smaller / local subreddits.

      Set up an RSS Feed for sports & my local subreddit (from old.reddit.com) and started using Lemmy in my browser. Now I use Boost. Haven’t logged back into reddit since.

      It works for my wants.

    I was permabanned in Elon’s post-inauguration bloodbath, after 12 years, and a million Karma.

    I know it sounds like sour grapes, but Reddit had already fallen far, and it’s fallen much farther since. I was checking out a thread that came up in a search, and I had to endlessly scroll through puns, novelty accounts, more puns, trolls, tangents, etc. I gave up before ever getting to anything resembling the subject I had searched. Useless.
