    Jfc…

    STOP GOING TO REDDIT!

    it’s been 2+ years since they proved they don’t give a flying fuck about it’s users. If you are getting banned now, you’re only complaining because it now affects you.

      it took me getting banned to go look for alternative platforms.

      I check Reddit every now and then and fuck it’s gotten so much worse. I recommend anyone to leave Reddit.

      there a cost to leaving a platform you’ve been in for a long time. had contacts I miss and cant reach to them because I was banned. also, it does take time to find niche communities you love.

      on top of that it’s a bit of a boiling frog alive situation, it gets enshitified so gradually that if you survive dealing with it until now, then you can tolerate it a bit more.

        I check Reddit every now and then and fuck it’s gotten so much worse.

        Mostly it’s the very popular and controversial subreddits that are highly likely to have roving bots for which to drop instabans, mainly on anyone discussing even remotely committing violence on right-wing characters.

        Also FU SPEZ.

      Trust me, I’m done with reddit. I would’ve left even if they didn’t ban me. In fact, right before the banhammer fell, I deleted my 1.6 million karma account because I’ve started looking for jobs, and I don’t want any potential employers to know I’m a social media junkie who’s obsessed with trolling and making weird shitposts.

        That’s probably a combination of other people lying and you lying right now. If you spent any time there, you’d have to be really fucking stupid to believe that.

              I’ve been diagnosed with several things over the years. I had a doctor who diagnosed me with Asperger’s and schizophrenia. First of all, Asperger’s isn’t even in the DSM-5 anymore, and second of all, he never even told me he diagnosed me. I didn’t find out until I stopped seeing him and started seeing a social worker. Dude went to Yale Medical School too, the fuck?

                Yeah. And in another thread you admitted to have never been diagnosed in over 22 years as a result of TBI, Right? Or was it a a spine injury? Or that you had 3 out of 4 markers for autism? There aren’t 4 markers for autism bud, and wait…. You were, or weren’t diagnosed? One minute you’re a diagnosed psychopath, the next minute you’re talking about the guilt you feel… then you have autism but haven’t been diagnosed used Burien you got an Asperger’s diagnosis?

                Or was it just that you admitted you enjoy lying to people on several occasions.

                You’re so full of shit, you can’t keep track of four own lies.

                  i wasn’t diagnosed with PSYCHOPATHY in 22 years, but during that time i was diagnosed with OCD, ADHD, Bipolar I, Asperger’s and schizophrenia. The doc who diagnosed me with Asperger’s and schizophrenia never told me that he diagnosed me. that was the guy who prescribed me benzos when he knew i was binge drinking. it wasn’t a spine injury, i believed there was a problem with my spine, but not i’m not so sure because i got the idea when i was maic. there WERE four markers on the test i was given. i was given a battery of tests over the period of one day about two years ago. i felt like absolute shit during the exam, so i barely said anything and didn’t make eye contact with anyone. in the report, they said my social deficits could have been explained by a mood disorder. if i told them about the over 90,000 hours i’d spent trying to correct what was wrong with me (that problem wound up being the slight problem with my posture)

                  i’m not a psychopath, so i am able to feel guilt, but my TBI has given me all the symptoms of antisocial personality disorder with psychopathic features.

                  if you’d like, i’d be happy to send you a screenshot of my medical records, which confirms that i had a traumatic brain injury in june of 2022.

    So the actual story of what is going on lately is more or less that the Keystone Altoona PD that arrested him at the McDonalds?

    Yeah, they’re looking like they illegally searched through his backpack without a search warrant, and thus… well, all of that may no longer be admissable as evidence.

    Oops.

    I’m not saying Luigi like, has this in the bag, he’s gonna walk, no, nothing like that…

    … But if just… the most incriminating physical evidence of the case … is dismissed?

    Prosecution is gonna have a lot harder of a time getting a conviction, than with that evidence in play.

    I don’t think that’s true - I comment on posts all the time on Reddit about Luigi. Or used to, anyway

    Now, when Reddit started running adds for border patrol and ICE, that’s when the clickthroughs stopped happening.

      there should be laws about bots pretending to be users. every social media should have a clear indication a user is a bot.

      High fines for the platform as well as whoever controls that account.

      I hate that there are some semantic parallels, but social networks need to be clanker segregated.

      is there a use for bots in social media? yhea, many bots are beloved in discord or Reddit (pre LLMs)? they are fine as long as they aren’t pretending to be people.

        Who would want to use a website where you need to dox yourself for the possibility of high fines? Even if you’re not using bots, that’s a huge risk in multiple ways.

          didn’t think about how to differentiate between people and bots besides pinky promises, captcha is useless now.

          there has to be a way.

          although dox based social media could do that easily (I mean stuff like Facebook where the expectation is that users use their real name).

            Even assuming it’s technically feasible, who would willingly accept that risk? If you get hacked by an AI user, you face charges. If the server with your dox gets hacked, your dox are now public. If they mistakenly identify you as using AI, then you’ve got to fight it in court.

            It’s very similar conceptually to chat control.

    Stupid rules like this one are fun to try and bypass. I wonder if it’s automated and if it could be bypassed by writing Luigi’s name in Japanese, which is ルイージ and is pronounced as Ruīji

      there are all sorts of ways to bypass it. one way is to use numbers and special characters instead of letters (so luigi is spelled |_ |_| 1 6 1)
