Got sniped by a Reddit bot and had my almost 100k karma account banned, new home here for now until I go back. I’m a man of MANY interests NSFW and SFW alike. Scrolling down my profile you might be thinking “Wow…Interesting profile” in either a sarcastic tone or serious, but hey god forbid a man has hobbies.

  • Damn, I actually didn’t expect a story like that especially from how old your account was at that point.

    Now I’m even more mad about Reddit heaaring those stories and I’m saying time and time again that Reddit has an AWFUL moderating system almost like it’s not there at all.

    Don’t let those fake points though define you man, I also was making content SFW and NSFW, I was thinking alright if I’m in the r/presidents subreddit what is something engaging I can post, I used to think that a lot of karma was everything but eh in the end who cares.



  • I keep repeating the story of how I got banned on Reddit but I’ll keep doing so cause it’s funny, basically I uploaded an NSFW meme with nudity IN a NSFW meme community that allowed nudity, I don’t know what the bots saw maybe because the image was more in low res anyways basically the second I uploaded the meme it said “Your Post has been removed by Reddit’s filters” and I thought okay, not the first time. I refresh and got a permanent ban and I thought…

    Why?







  • Definitely I know, I’m just working with Adobe maybe to my own detriment haha.

    I’ve also not followed anything on the gaming side, I heard it’s way better than what it once was but still with windows I guess, I know I can just run anything I want and work with.

    I also kind of wish Windows wasn’t hell bent on making poor decisions, I don’t know how they didn’t start charging us with every version of Windows, I still got my Windows 8.1 key which I used until now, so that’s the only “okay” thing about them.

    I guess, I won’t do the classic “haha you have to run console to install an app” meme because I know there are distros that cater to Windows users like myself, the problem I find is that most software I’d want to use wouldn’t be supported like video editing and stuff I care about, I’m glad to see Linux rise because only then Microsoft will learn, but also there’s not a BIG issue that’s keeping me away from using Windows for now.

    It might change who knows.





  • I odn’t think you can get “unbanned” without trying an appeal, though if you do try an appeal it will get rejected as it gets checked by bots somehow.

    I had two instances of this, I don’t remember what I did last time. I did download Brave which doesn’t track fingerprints but now funnily enough I was banned on a Brave browser so I guess I would clear cookies, but I remember singing up after 100 days and took it real slow like posting every few weeks and I was in the clear, until I got sniped by a bot.

    Wait 100 days, clear your cookies, IP, Browser, Email, even format your PC if you have to.





  • Definitely yeah, I mean they’ve got over 110M daily active users while Lemmy has 40k daily users it’s not even comparable, if Lemmy had users in the Millions I think it would be much better.

    I always looked for a reddit altenative, even though Reddit has all the things you’d ever want, and people from all around the world that you’l probably never meet but still, I would change so many things.

    I’m not against it, It’s just I used reddit for everything regarding news and I overral liked engaging with posts but it’s always like I had this fear that if I say something wrong I would get banned by a moderator or something.

    Also the permament ban thing is really harsh for me it should exist for posting REALLY FUCKED UP stuff, not because you posted something and a bot happened to snipe it.
