I saw someone praising Stalin earlier. It seems you're right.

Its true. I have friends still using it and they can't seem to break free. I used Reddit since its inception, but left it immediately during the api-pocolypse and never looked back. I did the same with Proton when the CEO praised the GOP. I have no loyalties to tech companies.
I've been trying to break free from Reddit ever since the api-pocalypse and subsequent ai-pocalypse. I mostly found my home on Tumblr for a while but it's taken a long time to find replacements for some things.

Neither of these are true lol. Someone has to tell the right wingers they deserve the death penalty for treason.
Keeping away from X is more of a health thing honestly,
I know at least for me, it leaves me worse off reading through posts on there even if I've tried to fight them
That’s legit. If this post were a call for good self care and mental health, I wouldn’t have commented. I tire quite easily of individualistic solutions to social and institutional problems.
Reddit has become practically unusable. Mods censor EVERYTHING even if it doesn't "break the rules" it's worthless trying to have honest discussions.
I once said on /r/nintendo in the context of Nintendo increasing the price of games that even if you enjoy their products, there’s no excuse to defend their anti consumer practices and that there was way too much “corporate boot licking” among Nintendo fans. It wasn’t a statement directed at anyone specifically, but I got a temporary ban for “derogatory name calling.”
Like…I fully understand it’s going to be a sub of Nintendo fans, and I also consider myself a fan of a lot of their games, but if you aren’t allowed to be critical…then banning me for that post kinda proved my point, lol.
I got an instant permanent auto ban for joking about pushing someone down the stairs. It was 'supporting violence'. I appealed and it was auto rejected. It's become absurd.
Mods censor EVERYTHING
This is not a Reddit issue, this is a "subreddit I'm subscribed to" issue. I'm not seeing that problem.
The problem I AM seeing, though, that's ACTUALLY making it unusable is how they fucked up the latest UI redesign. Ctrl+Enter no longer works, spellcheck is force-disabled when using the Markdown editor, posts no longer open in a panel, you have to open each one in a separate tab or reload the main feed every single time, everything is slow and clunky... It's just badly written, badly optimised and badly designed overall.
old.reddit.com is still the best client.
Unfortunately, yes.
Luigi
Luigi is a hero and I don't care if anyone thinks otherwise.
Luigi is a bright, shinning example of what happens when the powers that be stop listening to the complaints and needs of the peasantry.
You'd think they'd have learned that the last several dozen times lords got too high and mighty and triggered a violent revolt/uprising.. but alas..
Luigi is an innocent person who is being framed for being a shooter.

I dropped Reddit when it was announced that you could be banned for upvoting something.
I just continued using posting the same things I did before until I got banned, trying to figure out how to evade the ban for the sake of it.
Can you catch me up on the lore here
They are memory-holing Luigi over there
How? I thought moderators could only control individual /c/ ?
Oh mb, I thought we were talking about Reddit

So what’s the alternative to Lemmy? IRC? It seems like every social media platform has problems.
