    Come meet the most vindictive, aggravated, compulsively argumentative people you’ve ever met. On Reddit!

    Reddit is such a cesspool now. I got banned on r/Nintendohelp and r/Nintendo for participating in r/FuckNintendo

    I also got banned from r/Pokemongo for participating in r/PGSharp

    Reddit is useless nowadays since ai can answer most questions now. It’s only good for opinions people have and now even that’s in jeopardy.

      My account of 12 years with a nearly pristine history got permabanned presumably after the mods of /r/portland made false reports about me to the admins because my advocacy for the homeless wasn’t what they wanted their controlled discourse to look like. They harassed me across other subreddits before doing so, too. I was the main moderator of a somewhat popular NYC-based subreddit (I’d moved across the country), that sub was suddenly lawless after I poof disappeared and I have no way of explaining to the sub members what happened. Reddit is just a cesspool at this point.

    Not only in Paris. Saw some of them in Marseille too. At first I thought it was some kind of “anti-ad” joke, where someone was giving them a bad rep because of how stupid it looked.

    Guess it was not a joke.

    Maybe they shouldn’t have permabanned thousands of active users like me, with a 12 year account and nearly 1 million Karma. People like me built Reddit, and as soon as HitlerPig was inaugurated, the DOGE Goblin demanded that Reddit purge its membership. Now they’re stuck with bots, novelty accounts, punsters, Russian Propaganda Farmers, MAGA activists, etc.

        I got banned for “advocating violence” in a comment that simply said “I work in support services and I can personally attest that women can be extremely physically and emotionally violent, and to continually portray men as ‘the violent ones’ in our society, we tacitly deny protection to all people”

        Banned for expressing this horrid thought.

          You should be locked up, obviously. (I am kidding)

          No appeal procedure is proposed?

          Have you encountered the same problems on Lemmy?

            I appealed (not because I actually gave a fuck) and they denied it saying it was reviewed by a human, it clearly was not reviewed by a human lol

            Fuck that place anyways

        Not OP, but the story is the same. Personally I said something bad about Elon. I don’t remember what but it didn’t break their rules.

        The problem is they delete the “offending comment” and don’t tell you what it was and don’t give you a chance to argue your case. I got banned from a subredit once just by posting some lyrics to a song from Nightmare Before Christmas (Kidnap the Santy Claus). There is no point trying to make sense of it. Websites all die eventually and others take their place.

        It’s Reddit’s time.

          It does not look good, how do you know it did not break their rules?

      No they are remaking the building exterior so they put up a scaffolding, hidden behind the add and fake windows. It’s a common practice in Paris, though there are talks of banning the adds to reduce visual pollution

    Is France making an effort to untether itself from US tech companies like some other parts of Europe are?

    I’m staying with my boyfriend because of his dog. Am I horrible?

    Is there a Parisian who doesn’t do rock climbing, Pilates, or ceramics?

    I’m going to the Maldives but I’m composting, does that make up for it?

    Just between you and me, who’s ever bought fruit on the metro?

    So, what do we do with the people on the wrong side of the escalator?

    Has anyone ever found the exit at Chatelet, or is that a myth?
