        It was shut down for around a week to a week and a half, and now it’s back. That’s what I meant.

        The point was: now that it’s been shown that the mod is willing to take the sub offline in protest of various stuff, maybe it would be good to support an alternative as well so eggs can be in several baskets instead of just one.

    Just got a nearly 10 year old Reddit account permabanned because someone I share my computer with commented on a sub that banned me.

    The admins didn’t even have a look at my first appeal, sending an automatic message instead and won’t have a look at any further appeal, so here I am.

    I left Reddit during APIGate and I tried lemme and it was full of racist nastiness so I closed my account and recently also left all meta apps and drasticallyreduced tiktok, and thought I might come check out how things are going and it’s nice and cozy here now, think I will stay. Been off of x for the better part of 3 years.

      Nothing new in particular. People are sick of power tripping mods. Also people that joined Reddit many years ago are sad to see it’s turned into something else in many ways. I’m brand new here, I am over Reddit as I just got banned for “threatening violence”. I appealed to no avail. I got angry regarding a post about an adult purposely running down a 12 year old. I expressed what I “would feel like doing” to that driver if he knocked one of my sons over on purpose. I didn’t actually threaten a real person, it was based on a hypothetical scenario. But no apparently that’s threatening violence. So yeah, I’m here.

          It’s meta and x that are causing interest in the fediverse again. Pixelfed has gained a lot of users.

                Would you mind telling me what “Fediverse” is please. I had a bit of a read about this new place/thing/situation/blogsite or whatever it’s called. I’m an old Troglodyte and lucky that I even discovered Reddit 12 years ago. It was great for many years but I’ve grown tired of the same old comments and the insecure mods. Well anyway, happy newish year.
