I just got a 3 day ban. Here I am allowed to say that CEO assassination is basically self defense, right?

This is the final straw for me. Today, after years of accelerating decline, I deleted my Reddit account and made my Lemmee lurking official. My only regret is abandoning the the good people at Narwhal who always made Reddit better, but never had a chance to save it from its corporate-aspiring overlords. Good-bye!

That sent me here as well. What a great way for them to advertise for a decentralized information exchange!

It’s official folks, Reddit admins have actually lost their fucking minds.

Free Luigi

Just signed up here. I had my account flagged for upvoting on Reddit. Needless to say I was POed but so far I’m liking it here

Reddit is also banning and warning people for UPVOTING “violent” comments (or what they now consider violent and somehow right wing subs don’t get the same censorship applied; or we’d see them bitch about it). It’s now a dystopia.

Meanwhile conspiracy and conservative subreddits still exist…

Tipping point for me. Leaving Reddit for good.

Made my first Lemmy account after this bullshit! Took a split second to figure out, but Lemmy seems super rad so far!

Yup. I got banned from a sub for using the verb “to Luigi” (someone)

Most of the time, if I say “Luigi” I’m actually talking about the character. Mario’s brother. The lil green plumber. Not the real life guy.

I’m not sure what’s gonna happen to discussion about Nintendo games but if first names themselves can be banned from being said (even if they take on a new meaning due to slang) there’s something seriously wrong with the platform.

Reddit really hates Mario’s brother. What did Luigi do to your wife, spez? Mammamia that’s an abomination

Just commenting to say I deleted Reddit yesterday in favor of Lemmy! Happy to be here 🥰 #freeluigi

I literally just deleted my reddit account. I will still go to reddit, but I will do so without logging in. Fuck them.
