    I have to say I was having issues using reddit on my browser, it was a simple html issue where I couldn’t break paragraphs, and I went to the support sub and they fixed it within 2 days.

    I’ve had mods ban me for visiting, not commenting or posting, just viewing a post from another sub. I’m sure I got shadow banned plenty of times. I left because of the users. I disagreed that someone should Go No Contact with their dementia suffering grandpa for being racist and I felt like I was going crazy with the commenters who tore me a new one.

    I stayed for while after because fuck, I’d been on reddit since it had r/all and not much else. I blocked out the one that got me to quit for good. I don’t even want to check back in for curiosities sake because fuck them. I wasn’t wrong in the slightest.

      And after that you chose Lemmy of all places? No offense, but the people and especially the mods here are even more batshit crazy when it comes to anything even remotely considered not left. 😂

      I got banned from PoliticalMemes for saying that Hamas are a terrorist organization. Someone else got banned from the entirety of Blahaj.zone for saying that dragons aren’t real. The list goes on. Reddit is centralist heaven compared to Lemmy! Heck, some of the mods are openly Putin and Winney Poo fan tankies!

      That being said, there’s still a lot of cool people and communities here that are pretty nice. Just stay away from anything even remotely political if you’re not a downright communist/tankie. 🫣

      Edit: The downvotes and comments below are once again proofing my point.

      Edit2: Seems like I got myself another social stalker with this comment - [email protected]

        Reddit used to be a utopia like Lemmy before all the dipshits showed up. It was very left-leaning, and there’s a reason /r/atheism was so prominent.

        There’s joke subs (i know of r/switzerlandisnotreal) with respective rules.

        And i’ve not seen much right-leaning comments on c/all.
