I just got a 3 day ban. Here I am allowed to say that CEO assassination is basically self defense, right?
In this house, Luigi is an American hero. End of discussion.
say that CEO assassination is basically self defense, right?
I’m also new but from what I saw people here go even further than that, I think I’m going to like it here
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!
Yoooo Nintendo should sue. Reddit is publicly traded.
That’s a great point. Even if it’s used as a verb, it could mean throwing a banana peel behind you while driving.
Everyone named Luigi should sue for discrimination
Italians are always getting shafted in the US tbh…
It’s anti-Italian discrimination

Nintendo doesn’t want to raise the specter of association with Luigi Mangione. Heck, I bet they’d advocate for this, and would rename Mario’s brother if they could.
You are drastically underestimating how much Nintendo loves to sue.
Also, Nintendo’s late CEO Satoru Iwata famously took a massive (50%) pay cut during a tough time for Nintendo, instead of laying off employees. So…
Bring back Green Mario
Free Luigi
Can I have one? Jk. free Luigi!
Luigi did nothing wrong
It’s official folks, Reddit admins have actually lost their fucking minds.
This shit brought me back to trying to get into Lemmy. I’m sure this is the straw for others too. May reddit enjoy it’s diggification.
Yep that’s what brought me here. Reddit is gonna be just as censored as every other platform. Fuck that.
Excuse me, the terms of service says no strong language. You gotta say frick. Or do what everyone does on highly censored platforms and strt cnsring everth*ng. /s
Lmfaoooo like “unalive”. Truly just ruining ease of language for no damn reason.
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
Lmfaoooo okay but you are correct, as absurd as it sounds😆
Reddit doesn’t do anything about them unless the press gets involved. No way they’d crack down on their
slavevolunteer labor.They lost them in about 2014.
That sent me here as well. What a great way for them to advertise for a decentralized information exchange!
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.
Hanged*
Fascists need to be hanged.
Well, Reddit endorses fascists, so I think it makes perfect sense already, really.
“Don’t hurt my friends”
r/con bans you for anything, most of its controlled by russian trolls anyways, well known fact. thats how whipped up reddit into a trump frenzy.
Yeah, it’s insane how that sub is literally full of constant calls for violence but none of the comments get removed. Very sus.
I got banned for an assortment of things. Saying punch a nazi, Luigi did the right thing and Andrew Tate fans are fucking retarded
dont even need to get banned in con sub, any political or news sub, or any sub that remotely talks about politics.
I recently got banned for three days but I’m going to get rid of my Reddit. It’s only going to get much worse unfortunately.
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.
It sucks where Reddit went. MAGA is a plague and it needs to be cured.
Reddit is doing top tier ads for Lemmy.
Meanwhile conspiracy and conservative subreddits still exist…
Yeah, banning the word “Luigi” is pretty rich coming from a former mod of /r/jailbait
The mod probably put in the ban because Luigi Mangione is 26 years old now. Nothing to do with the trial or anything else really.
Reddit is also banning and warning people for UPVOTING “violent” comments (or what they now consider violent and somehow right wing subs don’t get the same censorship applied; or we’d see them bitch about it). It’s now a dystopia.
“conservative” subs are shill ops… just go through the comments, any reasonable right wing questions get removed and only retarded fame bait is allowed to be posted.
and russian trolls while get removed almost always come back in full force, and its is allowed them to astroturf any cricticism of conservatives.
Get rid of the goddamn up/down vote system then. It sounds like it is headed towards youtube where they only show upvotes to create a fake “yaaay!” impression.
reddit is mostly a hybrid of youtube and facebook.
Imagine how much harder the lives are for the mods of /r/nintendo
Don’t upvote or you’ll get banned.

sounds about reddit
Username checks out
Sad Yoshi 😢
Nahh deff upvote and then never log back in…
Welcome to the fedi verse, we got our own neo lib acolyte mods on Lemmy.world and you will get some bans from them.
Rest of fedi is a decently safe space for proper discourse.
And remember folks, deny the parasite profit and engagement

My comment got removed because I told someone to eat farts.
Maybe they weren’t hungry?
Also works as aromatherapy.

Lemm.ee is pretty good. To jump go to ur profile and hit export then make a new account in a different instance and do import. We have been pushing for a better way to transfer accounts for a while now but that hasn’t happened (I suspect due to the devs having ulterior motives on the issue)

Wow didn’t know you could do this.
Not really. Lemmy.world is alright as long as you have two functioning braincells to read community guidelines and understand you can’t just say whatever you want in a large fairly moderated public space.
You can get away with being an anarchist edgelord in a small instance but on Lemmy.world calls to violence are a no-no. When you get as large and stable as .world you need stricter rules to cover ass legally which is understandable.
The people who complain about being instance banned usually leave out key information that makes them look bad or just plain lie about why they were banned ,cwhich you can check if you go into modlogs.
Besides that, theres always going to be power mod fuckery any internet fourm you go. At least you can at least post it to c/yepoweryrippingbastard to vent.

Even better just don’t go on Reddit.
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.
Reddit really hates Mario’s brother. What did Luigi do to your wife, spez? Mammamia that’s an abomination
Just signed up here. I had my account flagged for upvoting on Reddit. Needless to say I was POed but so far I’m liking it here
Welcome friend. Lemmy is a nice place.
No, it is an open place where CCP shills and Nazis and good people can all say what they want, filter what they don’t, and communicate without shitty corporate overlords or trash mods having all the power.
If you’re going to be negative about people welcoming newcomers, you don’t have to comment. I thought I left all that behind on reddit.
Just being honest. It isn’t always a nice place, it is a fairly open and honest place. Not shitting on it, just not shining it. It is miles above reddit and the like.
Putting “CCP shills” and Nazis together like that is a hell of a choice.
A bit redundant, I know, but it made a point.
How did you find Lemmy, out of curiosity? Seems like there aren’t a lot of Reddit recs for it yet.
Not that person, but I found out about lemmy from reddit. There are people talking about it when this kind of stuff comes up.
i heard it about over the API thing like 2 years ago, then forgot it. got sitewide ban 99% of my accts meant for different subreddits, and came here, after i remember lemmy. im on LEMMY and on another forum(meant for people who evaded bans and got sitewide banned, and i noticed some got banned for no reason as well.
Honestly googled Reddit alternatives and the first search was from Reddit discussing Lemmy. Took a peek and now I’m here. I like Lemmy, just communities are a hit or miss due to inactivity.
Agreed about the inactivity but hopefully more users make the transition as reddit continues to filter people out
I actually heard about it a while back after the whole API block but never made the transition over till now
i came after part of the reddit february ban wave.
Made a lemmy account a while back and forgot about it. This shit made me switch instantly. Will keep upvoting Luigi posts until fuckers ban me.
Yup. I got banned from a sub for using the verb “to Luigi” (someone)
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.
lol they are giving warnings to people who upvote posts that they deem questionable. Literal thought crime police :D
Which sub?
I literally just deleted my reddit account. I will still go to reddit, but I will do so without logging in. Fuck them.
Exactly, use it for what you need from it but you aintt got to feed them your shitposts.
Seed fedi with your comments!
I hope the next guy who Luigi’s a CEO legally changes his/her name to John Smith or Jane Johnson or something extremely common.
As someone who has a name very similar to John Smith.
I volunteer as tribute.
