Just deleted my Reddit account after 4 years due to being wrongly banned for ban evasion and having all my appeals either rejected or ignored. Hope Lemmy’s a better place

(I first posted this on my .ee account but I’m switching to .world now so I’m reposting this here)

    Lemmy has less content than Reddit, but isn’t quieter. You will surely get more personal user engagement here.

    Welcome to lemmy.

    Hi, have fun. Don’t forget to use a coaster on the good table and don’t feed the trolls if you find any.

    I didn’t get banned, deleted my Reddit account of 11+ years anyway. 14 years? It was long anyway. F— that place.

    I got my Reddit ban award recently also. Not too sure what it was but I made a comment about Johnson having a punchable face.

    Reddit is getting way to sensitive since selling on the stock market

    Welcome to Lemmy. We don’t have collectible avatars on blockchain. Sorry if you were into those. But you can make your own avatars if you want, which I think is even better!

        It has! At least on the web, if you view user profiles - but most of the time they’re pretty useless because in the comments they’re scaled down to text size. And the Lemmy clients don’t bother with them at all. Communities do have icons which are at least more widely used and supported.

    Yeah… Uh… About that…

    Its pretty much the same as Reddit, but the difference is you can easily ban evade by making a trillion accounts on different instances. Mods and admins can still abuse their power but at least their abuse is public in the mod log.
