left reddit due to nazis

Reddit sucks, it's getting worse day after day. I'm still there, but moving to Lemmy.

I was never banned and I never really wrote any comments

I am the one who bans

I deleted reddit after the CEO made shitty decisions. So only Lemmy. So far it has been a much better experience.

The spez protests led to a lot of people sharing alternatives on Reddit and when I heard there was an open source alternative, checked it out and saw posts about Linux and beans I knew I'd never go back.

After spending some time on Lemmy, I have a feeling that if I were to say anything is get banned. I made a meme of that screaming seagull saying, "Luigi!!!" That I want to post from my main. I just can't bring myself to go back. It seems pointless.

I like lenmy more

Lemmy is going to the local store and Reddit is going to the mall.

Both

I like lemmy. Fuck Spez

Just like lemmy more

I just use both. I don't like what Reddit as a company is doing, but they have a larger amount of content

just left and haven't looked back, I'm not using the stupid default reddit app

The API killing my preferred third party app did it for me. And the blatant astroturfing/karma farming also meant that it wasn't a good experience on there.

I will say though, the Reddit hivemind effect is still present on Lemmy. Though I think there's less tepid posts to raise account karma here.

I just prefer Lemmy. I started exploring Lemmy about 6 months before the API fiasco. The content on Lemmy has just kept improving since.

I prefer this community.

I like lemmy more.

I left Reddit after they bent the knee to M*sk.

Got banned for saying Luigi was right

My reddit username is tied to multiple embarassing things I did when I was a lot more immature, during my early 10s, and now that I'm in my late 10s, I'd rather not have my embarassing 2018 things affect my 2025 things.

I was a mod who decided fuck spez when he killed my app

Reddit had its advantages but when they forced everyone to have r/all as a default sub I feel like the content really started going downhill and all the subs started becoming the same. Then when the API thing happened I realized it wasn't going to get better, they were determined to become Facebook.

I like Lemmy more because it is more aligned with my interest, notably Tech and Linux. I also like to have smaller communities in which your interaction have impact and are being read instead of being lost in thoudands of comments.

Temporary ban but Reddit is becoming less and less fun. Less interesting.

It’s time to move on.

I want to use Lemmy more but the content just isn’t enough yet especially on niche topics and hobbies. I do try to come here for the “front page” over Reddit, since those posts on Reddit get so many replies you ain’t reading them all anyways.

But when it’s time to talk World of Warcraft, for example, Lemmy is mostly dead.

I had an account on reddit, about five years old until I finally decided to leave it because i spend an ungodly amount of time there. Knowing myself and my habit to flake on self set goals I thought out the ultimate strategy to keep me from coming back: Over a couple of weeks I intentionally posted atrocious stuff on my main and my two alt-accounts to get me permabanned and burn every single bridge.

For now it has successfully stopped me from wasting time there any longer.

Already planned to leave after they cut off third party apps and finally made the move recently due to the CEO bowing for M*sk and deleting unwanted content. Was already looking at Lemmy and finally set up my instance and made the move - and it works for me.

I'm just stubborn, left during the blackout and didn't want to go back.

I still have Reddit where I post to r/Vancouver and r/Worldbuilding, mainly because Lemmy doesn't really have active communities for those where new stuff gets posted every day. Once Lemmy gets large enough (which I believe it will) for those communities to become active I'll probably stop posting to Reddit. Or if they get rid of the old UI. Whichever comes first.

Still on both but I'm not actively going on Reddit anymore. Only when Lemmy World can't be reached by my Sync app (which has usually more to do with my connection than Lemmy) or when I click links from people. I've refrained from commenting there anymore and will likely wipe it soon enough, after I get around to wiping my Meta posts (can't delete my whole account since I have friends and family still using it, but I definitely want to "hollow it out" if that makes sense).

I like Lemmy since its mostly about Tech but even the small communities over on Reddit can be more engaging then communities over here. I am involved in Trading cards and there just not the same community over here for it

I was banned off reddit doing to standing up to the r/seculartalk mod Liam and him throwing a little bitchy fit when I used my alts to warn users he was banning them for disagreeing with them. The site then banned me for circumventing his sub ban.

Not banned. I'm being the change I want to see.

Reddit didn’t permanently ban me, I permanently banned it. It started with Reddit killing third-party apps, but nowadays Reddit is a Nazi bar, so there’s no going back.

Not explicitly answering ops q; what brought me here was a friend who introduced the Lemmy/fediverse. And this is (imo) a better alt to Reddit. It is filled with company accounts, spammers, banned or discontinued sub-reddits..

You can get banned on Reddit? I thought you can only get banned by those sweaty mods.

I'm still using both, but I'm sure with the changes in administration I'll be getting banned soon. I already got a warning for saying that self-declared kings are liable to self-declared regicide
