I have been using Reddit for the last couple of years. It feels like it got worse ever since u/spez banned 3rd party clients which requires me to use revanced reddit now. Now the latest saga involves subreddits now banning you for participating in other subreddit they think are bad. This is just pure censorship at this point. And you want to know the best part Reddit has done NOTHING to stop this issue.
This happens on Lemmy too. Power Tripping Mods aren’t exclusive to Reddit.

Sure, but the community would immediately make a new NintendoHelp community on another instance. We have a low tolerance for that kind of BS.
People made alternative subs on Reddit for that very reason, too. They just were more likely to be buried by the other, bigger subs.
Some people might do that, but then you have two communities with even less users.
On the other hand, it is impossible to be banned from all of Lemmy. Power tripping admins do not exist here.
I wouldn’t be so sure. I could point to .ml and BlahajZone. Both have some questionable admins.
.ml is alot worst, because you only need to interact with someone from that instance you get a typical response. i never had a negative interaction on the trans instance.
My issue with the trans instance is that they expect you to behave a certain way in a control freak sort of way, which left a bad aftertaste. They wanted me to sincerely apologize for a fucking light-hearted comment. And I say that as a gay man who knows damn well where the boundaries are.
i try to avoid instances like that eventhough i support lgbtq+ i just had a bad experience on reddit where they mistakingly banned me for saying something they MISCONSTRUED, BUT THEY QUICKLY unbanned because they recognized it wasnt a violaiton lol.
