Bye Reddit

Hi. I made it.

Just deleted my 13-year-old account. I'm fucking pissed how much effort I put into that fucking place. The hardest thing was overwriting my content so they don't grt to keep my work. It's done, fuck that place.

Yep all three of my accounts got banned from Reddit yesterday for no good reason. Everyone should seriously leave that trash heap asap

I just came because of the bullshit.

I've seen that sort of shit and have now left Reddit and come over too

Welcome OP and everyone!

GG Allin! I saw a doco on him a few years back called Hated.

Whole shit was that insane. When he jumped into the crowd and started smearing them with poo. He just didn't give a fuck.

Welcome. Welcome. Secure your shit. Stay away from talkies. Use the block button. Enjoy.

Just made my account. Reddit can no longer be a trustworthy site since Spez keeps shitting all over the site with dumb ass rules.

I got banned for suggesting that maybe all the conservatives young men (the “alpha male types”) should be sent to an island where they can fight in an artificial, made up war against each other and then when they return home they’ll be progressives.

LOL. I was just making a point that people who call for wars are often the ones who have never fought in one. Oh well. Getting banned from Reddit is probably for the best, I should be supporting Canadian services anyway.

Be the change you want to see in the world. I’ve been on here since the api controversy. I’m done with Reddit for good now, after about 15 years. So now I’m going to try to drive activity on all the niche communities I want to see here.

I switched over and am permanently deleting my accounts. Be sure to do that, and don't just stop using it. They'll really only start to feel it when a bunch of 10+ year accounts start deleting, since they can't waive it away as "consumer fickleness" that will swing back around

You’d think asking people what they’d do to celebrate when he dies would be encouraging violence….

But it’s Reddit, so it’s probably a bait post to remove people who respond “incorrectly.”

The ignorant will be conditioned through social media. Reddit has no need for those that can think for themselves.

I got perma banned for saying I hoped Marjorie Taylor green trips and swallows her own head.

I've been here since reddit backstabbed its 3rd party app devs, and even just since then, Lemmy has grown a LOT while reddit continues to enshittify.

Welcome aboard!

Welcome to the fediverse, and retrolemmy! If you have any questions there are loads of "new to Lemmy" communities like [email protected]. Users are usually pretty helpful to reddit refugees, since most uf us are refugees ourselves.

If you have any questions or recommendations for retrolemmy itself there is [email protected] , or you can message me privately.

Welcome to Lemmy, be sure to build your own subscription and block list. The updoots dont tally on your account (which I think is one of the healthiest changes), speak your mind, each comment stands on its own, and bad takes are not forever (Ive had my own fair share). If you dont like your mods, change instances or make your own.

I got banned for harassing a mod

I still have no idea what they were talking about

I was on reddit for over 10 years

If we ever get our hands on the data, I think it's probably a safe hypothesis that most of the banned users are anti-trump.

Gotta make reddit a safe space to support his reign or emperor Donny will have a temper tantrum and Spez is easily frightened into submission

Welcome. It's better here and with more it will grow. Thinking about hosting even. Why not.

I'm starting to feel left out that I never got banned. Still not going back though
