Randomly got banned

Reddit@lemmy.worldEnglish · 7 months ago

What the fuck.

My Reddit account would be 4 years old next week, but for some unknown reason I got permanently banned.

I genuinely don’t understand why, but I wouldn’t be surprised if this is part of the enshittification of Reddit Inc. I’ve never posted anything hateful or doxxed someone. Just mainly discussed Dutch football matches. That’s it. I don’t think discussing football breaks Reddit rules, right?

I guess I’m disappointed, because a lot of great, niche communities exist on Reddit which don’t exist on Lemmy yet, so I now have nowhere to discuss some of my hobbies with random strangers on the internet.

Fuck Reddit and their shitty policy.

I mean it says it was because of what you posted on your other accounts. What did you post on your other accounts?

  Nothing. My other account was only for lurking and I didn’t post anything; no comments, no posts, nothing.
  
  I only post / comment on my main, but that’s now no longer possible lol.

Rule 6- Regarding META posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.

Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
