I had a nasty habit to argue with subreddit mods after being banned for mild violations. Obviously that would only happen when the penalty had been inadequate, otherwise I would keep my mouth shut.

It happened two times, at first I was banned for a week on the whole platform. Second time, I was permanently banned from reddit.

Mind you, these two were the only occasions I was banned from reddit per se. I would naturally receive bans on various subreddit for reasons, but never from the entire website.

Funny how the most powerful people on reddit are also most fragile and best protected by the admins.

Any site is more welcoming than R****t dare I say even Twitter is slightly better than it

I advise you to spend 5 minutes on LinkedIn. It is enough to make even Twitter looks like heaven

reeSilva is correct, but for the sake of everyone's sanity: AVOID LINKEDIN AT ALL COSTS. That's where all the self-important and out of touch people hang out and they're the absolute worst.

I dunno. I enjoy the drive-by trolls that go after middle managers or other weird ego driven robots for the shit content they publish. It's all virtue signaling to what they think their corporate heroes will pat them on the head for if they sound like an upper management sociopath.

its a bad sign when 4chan feels more welcoming than your site

i think the only upside about reddit right now is that you can limit yourself to the subs you like and be mostly free of the bullshit (yet)

u will probably feel less welcomed if u arent white and male and a rightoid in 4chan than reddit but honestly not by much, i think the critical difference is that on reddit u can filter ur experience so all the shits stains hang out in their own subs and the normal people avoid them, but im not sure if that is actually better, because it permits a site which is at least tolerant of some of the shittiest ideologies and prejudices around to be main stream while everyone rightfully regards 4chan as what it truly is.

i suppose its much the same here with lemmy being pretty respectable but with vile people being allowed to leak thru from right wing cesspools like lemmy.world.
