Except the obvious fuck spez / steve huffman stuff, what are the things that get you banned on reddit, but is okay on most major instances Lemmy?
Specifically, I want to know where is the line drawn, regarding the recent NYC Shooting incident involving the corporate shithead.
Getting banned from Lemmy is orders of magnitude easier. During my 10+ years on reddit I can only remember one occasion when I got banned from a sub but it has happened on Lemmy multiple times over the 1.5 years I’ve been here and comments being removed is a regular thing.
On reddit you need to actually break the rules. On Lemmy it’s enough that a mod doesn’t like what you’re saying.
On Reddit I got banned from subs I’d never posted in for participating in other subs. The content of my posts didn’t even matter.
And the sub doesn’t even have to be related. I got banned from commenting in r/thatsinsane for a comment in r/karma4u, can’t even remember commenting there.
If Reddit implemented proper blocking, it wouldn’t be a problem.
The quantity of fuckheads who kept brigading from their cesspool into a regular subreddit was infuriating.
I got banned twice on reddit just because my account was new. So I figured “f reddit” if that’s how they treat new people.
At least here there is a public modlog.
Which I think is fascinating. On Reddit, I’d get a post removed with a mail that says something extremely vague. Zero transparency.

What Reddit were you on? Many subs especially leftist learning ones would ban you even if you just subbed to a sub they didn’t like

Getting banned doesn’t really have the same impact. In both cases, you can still register with a new email, but on Lemmy, you can also choose a different instance.
