Same reason I left. I had been a user since like 2014. The censorship and banning of people who go against the hive mind is just insane. I criticized a mod (unknowingly) on a car sub because he was spouting stuff that was flat out wrong about a certain ECU programming thing. Got banned from the sub and permabanned from reddit less than 10 minutes later. I tried to appeal it and got the generic message back saying I had repeatedly violated reddit's content policy which was completely false. At no point did I say or do anything against their rules about hate speech and such.

It's idiotic as they're destroying their own userbase. At this point it's a website 75% bots run by bots. I have no interest in ever using reddit again or making another account.
