Yes. I was IP banned from Reddit and my wife’s account got banned as well on her devices (I never once used her devices to log into my account).
This can be circumvented with a vpn, but why bother. Reddit is a toxic site that is meant to show you ads and get you enraged so you engage.
I still miss it. It was a good entertaining time killer that has no replacement so far. I was in a lot of music and guitar subs that were fun to interact in
For me I found that it was full of people who desperately wanted to be right about everything.
I was banned from the 3Dprinting sub after posting a print in front of a 3D printer that was not the subreddit’s recommended printer and after I was called out for having “the wrong printer” I accused the multiple users of acting like they were in a cult. That resulted in a ban. Even my hobby subs were filled with unnecessary negativity.
There is much less content here but I fill it with as much interesting content I can because it’s friendlier here.
Don't listen to this guy he uses the wrong 3D printer.
I'm suspect of their claim as I was in the 3D printing subreddit as well and never witnessed anyone suggesting the Ender printers were the printer to buy. They're just dirt cheap so many people buy them as a first printer, but even die hard Ender users will tell you they're not great to own without tons of mods.
I've definitely witnessed this phenomenon in other subreddits though (HomeNetworking > Ubiquiti, Headphones > AudioTechnica).
I don't doubt their claim. Redditors gatekeeping? Seems totally on brand to me.
I’ve committed the mortal sin of using a Flashforge instead of an Ender 3
Shh. The commies are gonna come after you for buying a bougie printer.
It’s such a cheap printer so get at me.
I bought a cr6-se so I can't say shit. It's basically an ender 3 with fairings.
Hey at least the fairings make it go faster
Or by browsing from your data plan, or refreshing your ip address. Unless you pull a static ip for which you pay for a dynamic one is going to change. Just power cycle the modem and it'll likely change. Sometimes it takes a few tries or leave it disconnected for a bit.
Not worth it
