I got shadow banned weeks ago mistakenly, it happened after I made 4 posts about a humidity issues on 4 different subs. I think that triggered an algorithm to think I am a bot or something.

So the only sub I could use is r/Shadowban so I thought let me help others and let them know about their account situation.

My last comment was suggesting summit/lemmy while waiting and then I got message from r/shadowban that I am permanently banned. F… not sure if I can curse.

Anyway, I think Summit is amazing after some settings it looks like reddit and even better

    Reddit when a user has an interest or area of expertise🤭

    How do they expect people to be using their site?? Is it just run by people who don’t understand what a forum is, anymore? That means that they don’t even believe in the vision of what reddit is; they must look at the code at work and go “man… it’s going to take a long time 'till we make an Instagram out of this ugly duckling!”

      I used to get great answers there, now I ask a question about a problem with Windows, for example, and I get bombarded with comments telling me Windows is da best, and I am doing it wrong.

      The difference is the platform, they both connect to the fediverse. Right now piefed has a fair amount of features that Lemmy doesn’t but the Lemmy Devs are hard at work so we’ll see what the updates bring.

      You can think of each instance kind of like an email. Gmail, Yahoo whatever, they can all connect to each other but they’re all their own thing.
