So I’ve been ban from Reddit for 4 months now and got my first appeal denied. It does say you can appeal within 6 months I don’t know if that means if you don’t get your account back your basically done or does it mean what ChatGPT thinks it means. That after 6 months I can try another appeal. I really want to get back on Reddit. I mean really it’s way more strict than Facebook I think. But I really do miss Reddit like a lot and this would be a relief if I have a second chance.

      Yeah, and my honest response to that is “too damn bad”. Reddit is a dying platform and they will continue to abuse you for profit.

      I got banned for reporting obvious spam bots and Reddit never even responded to an appeal. They don’t give a flying fuck about any user. Make an alt and run the gauntlet of the automatic ban evasion detection, or never go back again. Those are your options, sucks to suck.

        I agree left reddit never looked back literally asked a question in a sub and was banned like what it was about the exact product the sub was for.

        I commented on a post about how shitty misogyny is-- on a sub about shitty misogyny, and the post got brigaded by MRA chuds. So many comments were calling women slurs, grouping women together by saying women are all whores, you name it. Many were upvotes and allowed to stay.

        I got permabanned for MY Comment the next day. I tried to appeal and it got denied. I didn’t suggest violence or even harm. I didn’t drag them. I just didn’t say “Not all men.”

        Reddit bans are incredibly biased and I swear given out by right-wing incels. I’m trying to ween myself from Reddit. Lemmy is good because I’m not endlessly scrolling content. Hopefully the ban actually just gets me closer to being off social media.
