Speedrunning a permaban on my 15 year old account. How many days do you think it will take?

      That’s exactly what we need to take from this. Not that money is in control and that’s why they’re cracking down, but that they’re cracking down because they’re scared.

      Reddit is more okay with people where we have indisputable video of them killing someone else in cold blood than someone who police just say trust us bro he did it.

      Amazing how the admins react to things

      They can be scared, but unless ten, fifty, or one hundred green Mario brothers appear nothing will change.

    “While you didn’t post the rule-breaking content, reading content that breaks the rules is also considered a violation.”

    “While you didn’t post the rule-breaking content, thinking about breaking the law is also considered a violation.”

    “While you didn’t post the rule-breaking content, protesting human rights violations is also considered a violation.”

    “While you didn’t post the rule-breaking content, being an unapproved minority is also considered a violation.”

    “While you didn’t post the rule-breaking content, not drinking enough verification cans is also considered a violation.”

    They’re scared. Spez knows his neck is on the line in a more literal fashion than ever.

      While you didn’t post the rule-breaking content, not buying a Tesla is also considered a violation.

      Ahhhhhhhhh now I see what the enforcement angle is on orangeboi declaring that an “illegal boycott” (a term that makes roughly as much sense as “aerodynamic bedsheet”)

    They couldn’t make everyone hate him, so now they’re trying to make everyone forget about him.

      Before getting banned it’s probably a good idea to remove or replace all of your posts and comments with something like https://redact.dev/services/reddit

      Reddit monetizes the content that users create so remove that content. The admins probably have tools to restore deleted comments and posts but that takes effort and time and if enough time goes by data and backups get lost.

        do you know how to download all of my reddit history for personal use? redacting is a good idea, but I want to keep it available to myself in case I need to look up something in there

        Tbh I really do think the ship has sailed on that. They’re 100% archiving and off lining (and probably violating the shit out of GDPR) stuff to sell to LLM companies. Not to mention, that data’s already been tokenized and ingested into the systems, and from a computational and logical standpoint, it’s actually a pretty fucking hard problem that people are still trying to figure out how to dis/prove, let alone do reliably and effectively.

        Your shit’s been snarfed. So has mine. I don’t mean to be a dick, but we will need to get over it, because there’s no recourse here. Don’t forget, but just account for it and don’t get too bent out of shape over it.

      It’s time consuming but just checkout popular and keep scrolling/refreshing for an hour, you’ll find it but they’ll all be removed within days.

    Talk about the thought police! I saw it coming for awhile, but past me from a decade ago is shocked that Reddit has come to this.

    Migrate your posts to lemmy first (some of the lemmy apps can do this in bulk). Then Edit your old posts and comments, slowly, then delete them slowly. It’s your content not Reddits.

    By doing this it devalues Reddit in the process as it becomes void of human content only left with AI slop. They certainly dont value the content creators which made Reddit so why should you.

      I made the mistake of not doing this. I was so fed up with reddit that I had to get off there ASAP.

    Reddit has been hell for a long time. Posts advocating genocide of Arabs get upvoted regularly, and any pushback gets you banned. The fediverse is marginally better.

    Anyways welcome to the club. First time?

    Hahahahahahahhahahaha this is wild. It’s so blatant. It’s just so unrepentantly, obviously, nakedly blatant. Jesus fuck.

    Like im glad you guys are all getting out and finding us and other similar communities, but like… the societal and systemic implications of them going so hard on this on reddit makes me shudder to consider how insane moderation must be getting on normie social networks, which have been traditionally WILDLY awful on that point even before we decided to break fascist. This is them actively and aggressively suppressing free speech. Mahmoud Khalil was/is another instance of that. This is us not keeping the republic.
