Did something new happen on reddit?

[–] DiaDeLosMuertos@aussie.zone 9 points 11 hours ago (3 children)

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.

Lol I got an account banned in reddit for threatening violence too - my comment was a direct quote from the US president!

A post of an article calling for federated social media got big. A comment on said post pointing to Lemmy got 100s of upvotes. Reddit mods deleted the comment.

ah. I thought they did some new, fresh BS and caused another exodus.

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

I know that, but the title of this post references redditors.

[–] DiaDeLosMuertos@aussie.zone 1 points 4 hours ago

Well I just got here and I don't know what the title was referencing in regard to an earlier thread. I'm learning how to navigate this thing currently. I understand where you're coming from though. Maybe that earlier post explains it ?

General interest in fediverse includes Lemmy.

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.
