I posted this yesterday:
And apparently this warrants a instant permaban.
They don't even tell you what rule it breaks. Which one do you think it might break?
In any case, every time I visit Reddit and look at my local subs (Montréal, Québec or Canada) I look at the comments and they're absolutely vile. The community has become so fucking toxic it's unbearable. And I also realized how my mental health actually improved since I left that community.
They can keep the permaban. I don't give a shit anymore. I'm so over that god forsaken place.
Peace out.
Quick update:
I contancted the mods and apparently I was permabanned for spamming and they immediately muted me so I wouldn't be able to message the mods any further. I can understand that it can be considered spamming, but I feel they're being extremely harsh over this. They really have no chill.
My guess would be that it really had nothing to do with Canada. It had to do with you complaining about their subreddit and you telling people to leave it. I would have removed it as well. Dunno if I would have banned you. I would have had to seen it a number of times before I banned you I think.
As a mod, I don't care if they say something is better somewhere else as long as it is about the same theme. I mean if I run Old and Antique Cars and someone says hey lets meet up at this other place as well, that is great. It is more Old and Antique Car discussion. I don't give a shit about the platform, Reddit certainly is not paying, and if anything is actively trying to fuck over moderation. If they said Old and Antique cars suck we should all move to New and Fast Cars, I might remove it.
So I am confused why you would remove it? Does it really matter?
Well duh if you’re wanting to ditch your subreddit too of course you’d big it up, lock it down, and send everybody to lemmy. You answered your own question.
I didn't say that at all. I said I wanted to support the topic. If there is another place to talk about the same thing, no problem.
I guess you're right. I wasn't very tactful.
