I posted this yesterday:

And apparently this warrants a instant permaban.

They don’t even tell you what rule it breaks. Which one do you think it might break?

In any case, every time I visit Reddit and look at my local subs (Montréal, Québec or Canada) I look at the comments and they’re absolutely vile. The community has become so fucking toxic it’s unbearable. And I also realized how my mental health actually improved since I left that community.

They can keep the permaban. I don’t give a shit anymore. I’m so over that god forsaken place.

Peace out.

Quick update:

I contancted the mods and apparently I was permabanned for spamming and they immediately muted me so I wouldn’t be able to message the mods any further. I can understand that it can be considered spamming, but I feel they’re being extremely harsh over this. They really have no chill.

    I suspect there is something going in on reddit in general. The moment you mention Lemmy, you get down voted.

      Yeah and I feel like the users there don’t care at all about all the privacy issues and how Reddit aggressively exploits it’s users now. And they’re using AI with bots to basically generate content using old posts or comments and repost.

      It’s like any other social network like Twitter and Facebook. I tell people that they need to leave for their own good, but nobody gives a damn.

      It’s driving me crazy because I see the problems. I see how it’s affecting people. I can explain it to them and they’ll understand. They still refuse to leave. It’s like telling them they’re drinking poison and asking them to stop but they’re drinking it because everyone is going it anyway.
