    So, when your account is banned on Reddit, does that remove all your posts? Because that would be cool. I left Reddit back in mid 2023 and came to Lemmy. I tried to delete all my old posts there, but they wouldn’t let me. I tried editing them and they reverted back to their original form. When I deleted them, they appeared to be deleted while I was logged in, but if I logged into another account the posts were still there. If getting a ban will get them deleted finally, then that would be well worth paying that cesspool a visit for a while.

    Is there a particular subreddit that is spiteful towards the word Luigi? I’m going to try saying Loo-E-G and see what happens. Perhaps the bots won’t recognize the phonic resemblance.

    Yeah, I got a notice and I don’t even know what for as I have never spoken of Luigi. My best guess is that I responded to a poster talking about the inevitability of the USA rolling into Canada and taking everything and there’s nothing we can do to stop it. I wrote back that Trump isn’t getting anything and that I will die to protect my country. Boom, warning email from Reddit. Fuck them.

    Reddit really hates Mario’s brother. What did Luigi do to your wife, spez? Mammamia that’s an abomination

    This is the final straw for me. Today, after years of accelerating decline, I deleted my Reddit account and made my Lemmee lurking official. My only regret is abandoning the the good people at Narwhal who always made Reddit better, but never had a chance to save it from its corporate-aspiring overlords. Good-bye!

    I just got a 3 day ban. Here I am allowed to say that CEO assassination is basically self defense, right?

    Most of the time, if I say “Luigi” I’m actually talking about the character. Mario’s brother. The lil green plumber. Not the real life guy.

    I’m not sure what’s gonna happen to discussion about Nintendo games but if first names themselves can be banned from being said (even if they take on a new meaning due to slang) there’s something seriously wrong with the platform.

              Soon you can’t say fired or terminated anymore either because that sounds too violent. It’s “unhiring” now. DOGE doesn’t fire government workers. It just unhires them. /s

      now reddit is telling people to investigate the people upvoting and people who got “luigied” by the filters, as if mods are going to spend energy investigating every single instance.

        i had one acct left after they banned all my other accts when they decided a large purge last month, im just lurking there with that acct and only commented once on a niche sub, likely i wont be commenting on any controversial ones, and just spend it here instead.

      I got banned from Reddit for stating that fascists need to be hung while Reddit endorses fascist subreddits such as /r/conservative that spews hate.

      Make it make sense.

        Yeah, it’s insane how that sub is literally full of constant calls for violence but none of the comments get removed. Very sus.
