    I got a warning for upvoting too much violent content. I know it’s bullshit. I contributed regarding economics but nothing violent.

    Done with Reddit.

      Same here, but the bots don’t even tell you the “wrongthink” post that you upvoted so you have no idea how to avoid upvotes that will flag your account with a warning/ban. It’s fucking psychotic on reddit now. Like watching the Titanic sink at this point.

        digg could not be coming back at a better time. I honestly hope that it’s basically just reddit but with a better UI and not as many shitty rules. Going public ruined that fucking website and I always knew it the moment they started charging an obscene amount of money to use their API

          The irony is that reddit ripped off digg’s original UI nearly 95% identically. I hope they keep a similar format because the Digg redesign sucked and everyone hopped over to reddit, then reddit made that god-awful new UI that I can’t even bother to use at all (you can opt out of the ‘new design’ in your user preferences/settings) but at this point, reddit is practically useless anymore. They’ll probably be censoring any links to digg once it comes back up as people tell other users that there’s a reddit alternative.

      Never got my wrist slapped. But enforcing votes is beyond the pale.

      Dipped my toes into lemmy during the last exodus (2023?) but I’m done posting to reddit forever now.

        I can’t wait for digg to finally come out, I hope it becomes basically a better, private, version of reddit, but you know, good. Lemmy is good too for now but I’m not exactly a huge fan of the UI, and not enough people are moving over yet. Again, probably cuz the UI is a little hard to figure out the first time.

          I almost consider that a feature. Same with the sign up process, it may help keep a lot of bots out.

      Not the whole site but I got banned from World News a month or so ago for making a Luigi related Mario Brothers joke.

      Such a joke. I am not even remotely a small time Reddit user either, been there for like 15 years and probably have over a million Karma across 3-4 accounts.

      Yep, that’s why I’m here now. If I ever use my Reddit account I just refuse to upvote anything at all
