Lots of people have been banned, across all their accounts, with no recourse, and new accounts suffer the same fate
My fiancée lost over a third of her followers overnight, and asked a mod she knows what was happening.
She was told that anyone who had been banned, for any reason whatsoever was being indiscriminately purged, with device fingerprinting and other mechanisms used to keep them from finding a way back in
Apparently it has been happening in stages, so that’s why there are waves of mass-bans
Reddit seems determined to cut themselves off at the knees, so here’s hoping that Digg and Lemmy can shine and learn from the mistakes of Reddit
I have never been blocked or received any warnings from Reddit, I mainly used it for the home improvement subs. I made one comment criticizing Israel and my account has been banned and my IP blocked. 😂
Yep
I apparently incited violence.
I never knew saying “bad bot” to a nazi apologist was so offensive
Oh and even softly calling out an obvious bot account lol. Nope can’t have that.
I’m good here on lemmy since the API debacle.
