They exchanged messages just before the subreddit r/WhitePeopleofTwitter was given a temporary ban for 72 hours
That’s more or less why I left reddit and came to lemmy.
This is in fact my very first post here. :)
Same. Just created my account
I think we chose well.
Welcome fellow former redditor!
I’ve been here for about a month, switching bettween this and Reddit, while still mostly using Reddit. This made me leave Reddit completely. This and getting banned for 3 days for upvoting a comment was the final straw.
Similar final straw for me.
I had wrote an anti putin thing under a post of Selenskyj where he stated putin will soon die, I confirmed that I hope so too and got like 400 upvotes and a hour or two later got deleted and a 3 day ban.
I got here because they killed Apollo 🫶🏻 never forget
I use Voyager now for lemmy
Welcome, I am a former redditor myself.
same!
Welcome to the party!
Yep, Reddit pushed me this way too, but I’m much happier. Welcome!
Unlike others, i didn’t get banned from Reddit, i just wanted to get a head-start learning this site, because Reddit is on the way to become X2.
I’m brand new as well and hopeful but wow the smaller forums here need some love. The topic variety is small to the point where maybe straight up bot cloning subreddits here where posts on Reddit just get reposted to their Lemmy equivalent to kick start refugees feeling at home. Plus if there’s basically cross platform discussion posts it gives ground for users of existing subreddits to migrate.
Welcome, fellow ex redditor.
Thanks :)
Welcome friend!!
Welcome here!
There has been unwarranted censorship at a scale I’ve never seen on Reddit I thought it was the last bastion of free speech
While actual hate speech and seriously harmful content goes completely unchecked
It is unfortunate
Steve Bannon isnt welcome in Colorado. Phil Long Auditorium shouldn’t host nazis. I was banned for saying as much from Fucking Reddit of all places Pointing out that there have been fires at dealerships lately does not equate to harrasment Phil Long Auditorium should not host the Rally period. Their casual attitude towards white supremacy is unacceptable and while i dont believe they should necessarily be burnt to the ground, there are better places to buy automobiles They deserve to be boycotted And i will punch a nazi mod in the face 100% of the time
Edit: UPDATE 2 PROTESTORS WERE RAN OVER BY TWO DIFFERENT HATE RALLY ATTENDEE"S CARS !!! NAZIS ARE VIOLENT PIECES OF SHIT
Told you so r/Coloradosprings
Fuck yall
I got banned from reddit for saying that netenyahu should be put on trial and hanged for war crimes.
After their censorship of me for saying a reasonable thing (a war criminal made to face justice) I will say I have altered my opinion. He should be tied up, simply read his charges and then unceremoniously shot in the head.
I’ve been seeing the steady increase in posts and complaints about Reddit banning folks for political speech for the last couple of months and I finally have had enough so here I am. Been on there for 14 years… Byeeeee.
Ah the “free speech absolutist” strikes again.
Any time I hear someone say they are “free speech” I am going to pause because what it means is: “My speech > your speech”
True free speech means you know when you’re wrong and when you need to change, or as I like to call it: EMPATHY
Add “brown nosing spinless wimp” to the list of acceptable descriptors of Spez
Fuck u/spez
This works here right
always and forever

Elon acts like a dude with a very tiny penis.
I guess time to bail for good?
I love Reddit so much, but the censorship is bullshit! I quit the entire META platform months ago, lost a lot of contacts but fuck Zuckerberg!
My permaban came from a post about DOGE. They deleted the comment, permabanned me, and wouldn’t let me see what I even commented. They said it was “encouraging violence” but hell no, I was making sure not to say anything like that. Wonder if I just insulted Elon and reddit decided to finally get rid of me.
Elon is being a damn snowflake.
Welcome, reddit refugees. You won’t miss Spezzit.
The enshittification of Reddit continues on.
America Hates
TRAITORAPIST TRUMP
Oh good job Musk! Bring them all here! Right into our icy flippers!
Flippers because we’re penguins because we love Linux?
We’re not going to live down that time we held a guy at gunpoint in Grand Theft Auto to help him consider switching to Linux, are we?
No commrade senior citizen most equal of all pimball_wizard, we are not :'[
Seems to be working.
I see many new ex redditors here like me
