I'm sure as long as you aren't a Jew or one of those very icky brown people 4chan is very welcoming

After the Charlottesville protests and the guy ran everyone down with his car, I went to /b and it was flooded with messages telling everyone to attack more people with cars

That's exactly what any sane person would expect to see when looking at that cesspool at that time.

More welcome to whom? 🔪🦢

Every kind of failed son has their own board

With two emoji you have perfectly conveyed which meme you are captioning. Very impressed

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.

Reddit is full of the most dishonest lying pieces of shit for mods and admins.

And they keep shoving more and more ads in their website and bots are running more rampant now, so it’s a sinking ship

You get what you pay for.

goodness how i despise power tripping moderators.

i've been a mod in one pretty large and active online community and somehow power has never gotten into my head, but i've seen so many completely trip out over the smallest non-issues, fucking bizarre

I'm curious how that constituted not just community rules, but sitewide rules

[–] [email protected] 20 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

are they banning mentions of any other social media? Since there's a lot of names lemmy instances can go by.

[–] cralder 11 points 3 weeks ago

The screenshot says this violated rule 4 or the sitewide rules:

Rule 4

Do not share or encourage the sharing of sexual, abusive, or suggestive content involving minors. Any predatory or inappropriate behavior involving a minor is also strictly prohibited.

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)

I hate the 4chan captcha it sucks ass tho

You must wait 6,000 years...

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

[–] [email protected] 24 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

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

[–] ms_lane 13 points 3 weeks ago

No, I don't think I will.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 weeks ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

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.
