    I was temp banned from reddit for honestly I forgot why (something to do with me being antizionist), I realized I was gonna get banned anyway so I deleted my account and left on my own terms.

    My account of like 20 years got banned and I never received any reason why… still to this day have no idea. no messages or anything. I tried making a few more accounts but was using alias emails and VPNs and such and they all got banned. After that I figured why do I try to hard if they don’t want me so I jumped ship…

    never looked back

    banned from reddit for “threatening to kill reddit staff”. the post: pedophiles should be executed.

    it’s very telling.

    I used it before, but got banned by Reddit a couple of months ago for a genuinely ridiculous post. My account was 14byears old. I couldn’t care less about being banned. The place has been a burning dumpster fire for the last few years. If they want to implode that’s their business.

    I’ve never been banned from reddit (that I know of).

    I left reddit three years ago next month duringsthe API drama. Since then the only time I’ve been to reddit (not logged in) is when it comes up in a search result.

    I was never banned. I left recently because the app got updated to keep sound on ads always on, even if you turned them off, the next time you used the app, the sound was back on.

    This happened a few times to me and I deleted the app

    Not banned yet, but they recently removed my API key I was using to work with sideloaded Apollo. I’m now using an alternative method again, but I wonder when they’ll just end up banning all users trying to keep Apollo alive?

    I’ve been through so many reddit handles. Some are banned in /r/politics, some in other subs. There’s no reason to it.

    I used Reddit for years as a reader without ever posting or commenting. When alternative front ends were ditched, I switched to Lemmy which I really like. Was never banned.

    Shadow banned, never knew why, not even moderators, and never got an answer, so I figured it was better to just leave the place to somewhere with more humans at the helm

    I had 4 accounts and they banned all of them for inciting violence. I said Donald Trump is a pedophile and deserves to be in prison.

    They don’t like anti trump people.

    I have been a Reddit user for 15yrs and got banned 48hrs ago for for suggesting that some dog owners should die because of their deliberate inbreeding to create dogs with traits that are ultimately bad for their health.

    For context I am in the UK and we have a deeply ingrained love for dogs over here so seeing a picture of some Americans that are gushing over their inbred dogs made me angry and emotional.

      I’ve been to the UK and there’s British people that also breed dogs… It’s not an American thing. I also don’t think the love of dogs is something specific to the UK, people love dogs all over the west 😭
