I’m a lurker. I don’t post on facebook or reddit or anywhere. Today I randomly got a message from reddit that my account was permanently banned for apparent repeated violations of their site wide rules. I have the ReVanced app on my phone that blocks ads on reddit just so those scumbags can’t profit off me lurking, but it’s the only reason I could fathom that is why I’ve been banned. Anyway I just wanted to vent so thanks for reading this if you did. Reddit fucking sucks.

    I didn’t realize how bad Reddit had gotten until I tried Lemmy. It got toxic slowly enough that it snuck up on me. I’ll never go back.

      I had to look something up and the answer was in Reddit. After I found what I was looking for I scrolled through my old subscribed communities and saw so much toxicity,. Not just in the people but the things I was subscribed to, r/relationships, AITA, even some of askReddit, it made me feel gross thinking that’s what I scrolled through and interacted with every day.
