Reddit is fucking awful at this sort of thing and I would not be at all surprised if it punishes people who didn’t harass anyone in part because it’s broken and in part because it’s being gamed by trolls to harass people because it’s broken while also openly harassing people and getting away with it because, again, it’s broken and reddit won’t bother to fix it just like the current system.
Worked exactly like that with their anti evil operations “team”, which I was convinced was either a LLM or some foreign labor worker with barely any English knowledge.
They were all pretty useless. There was one guy who openly admitted to abusing botnets to mess with reddit on reddit, then he got me banned, saying in a post that’s what he was doing.
After I got banned, it took 5 days for the appeal to process and the guy who did it didn’t get banned until a month later, only after multiple reports were filed by various people (not to mention, it was cited in the appeal).
I’m sure they turned right around and made new accounts right away too.
Reddit is horribly managed and it’s only going to keep getting worse as far as I can tell: I’m just happy there’s Lemmy now.

Calling it now.

Nah, it was just a collection of shitty bots and scripts.
That was their “admin” team… The anti evil team was something worse than that.
