I got banned while on a work trip to the United States. I hadn't posted at the time for more than a year.
I requested my post history from them and posted it up publicly to see if anyone could figure out why, I've still got no idea.
There's a link to my post history in a previous winge about it https://lemmy.nz/post/2224688/2959801.
Arrived here in the process of USA boycott.
I see a lot more banned users and deleted comments on lemmy than I did on reddit.
Me, I'm getting constantly banned from r/Europe by this moronic mods.
Banned by writing about that Germany never paid anything to Poland for holocaust of Polish citizens
I'm reading worldnews rules on Lemmy. There should be lax rules, no ban whatsoever - only for pedophilia and obvious crime like drugs, terrorism, videos of murders
Me, arbitrary ass ban while using an alt trying to gain karma on the front page so I could post with it, my first comment insta banned all accounts permanently because I guess I was banned from that sub on my main/og account.
Came here originally for a pirate community in dbzero, mistakenly joined .ml, then finally joined World. Maybe PieFed is next, who knows. Never let them know your next move.

First I was temporarily banned. Then, permanently banned. They would not even display the comments in question which led to my exile. Toxic power tripping MF’s all up in it over there.
I use both because Reddit done screwed over my preferred mobile platform. So now I use Lemmy on mobile and Reddit on the desktop
I quit commenting at that site long ago but still lurk occaisionally in some technical sr's. It became too mean.
I came here after deciding to quit reddit. I'm Canadian. I had no problems with reddit other than Trump's threats to annex (invade) Canada. I'm also joining my national brothers and sisters in the tariff boycotts.
I was permanently banned on Reddit June 2024 because I said I hoped the libs of TikTok monster would get hit by a bus.
Yeah, got a few temp bans for talking about shitler/muskrat and they perma-banned my account for "harassment". The post they linked me to didn't even link to a comment; it wasn't something I remember posting on.
I was getting tired of the culture over there anyway. I was also tired of arguing with conservatives who think their shit doesn't stink and regurgitate Fox News talking points about the "illegals" and ICE.
A lot, the question is when.
The first wave has been getting banned since the US regime took control over it in the person of Jessica Ashoosh (2016).
And a whole lot more since the genocide in Palestine.
The slightest criticism was enough.
So I have my doubts on the large group of libs that only got banned since Trump.
They didn't care about anything but themselves and only what their government now does to them.
They are perfectly fine going back to a nice 'democratic' fascist-lite regime that only terrorises other countries while they live in their bubble.
