    holy hell is it toxic compared to here

    I cannot agree more! I went to reddit (wirhour an acc) and just… wow. Did it got worse or was I always blind to how awful that place was?

      I think you are seeing some withdrawal symptoms honestly. People are addicted to scrolling for their next dopamine hit. When that’s taken away they get cranky. Add the anonymous nature of being online and things get toxic real fast.

      I was IP banned from Reddit so I only got to use it without an account for the last few months. It’s very toxic. The front page (not logged in) is so fucked.

      I don’t miss Reddit.

          Oddly enough, the same thing happened to my partner. She logged out one day, and then she suddenly could never log in ageing on that acct. Then, she could not log in to a new acct more than twice before it got removed. She tried 4 it 5. Her only comment was saying that she loved the colour of something.

          We are stayng away from reddit now lol

          I was banned from /r/Android because I prefer a Google Pixel over a Samsung device (yay, corrupt mods!)

          I forgot, and I commented using one of my many alts. I was temporarily suspended from Reddit as a whole for “ban evasion”.

          My friends visited, who have Reddit accounts, and when they connected to my WiFi Reddit immediately perma-banned ALL of us, including all of my brand accounts for my company for “continuous ban evasion”, despite me not posting anything from any of my accounts.
