I tried to post on Reddit without AI assistance, and the platform punished me for it. Auto‑removed, auto‑banned, auto‑muted. No human review, no appeal, no accountability.
Reddit’s AI moderation is so broken that it flags real people as bots, blocks posts before submission, and traps users in permanent accounts they can’t fully delete.
I’m posting this here because Reddit makes it impossible to talk about Reddit. Their AI systems silence users instead of helping them.
If this is the future of moderation, it’s a dystopia.
I know, I immediately went to AI chat (Microsoft Copilot) for help in how to remove it, I just want people to realize how old and outdated Reddit’s AI systems are, I mean the rare moment where I actually used my words on that site and not default to AI chat I get banned and muted. Needless to say it doesn’t make me feel any comfortable using my own words, Honestly at this point Reddit is like North Korea, you can’t say anything negative about Reddit, not even as feedback, and were I to delete my Reddit account, they would keep my username “they would keep my
username” so I’m basically screwed. Hoping for a change in Reddit’s AI that will never happen, hoping for a change in account permanency which will never happen, Thus using AI chat Microsoft copilot to make my words come as intelligent and accurate as to not come off as a raging Karen, which in itself will help nothing.
