It may not be that long compared to some of yours out here. It stings because that account was my main account, so many memories in it and I even met my wife through it. Unfortunately, I have recently experienced what I can only describe as sabotage on my account.
I don’t know much about how Reddit and moderation works behind the scenes but recently everything I post in different subs keeps getting auto-removed without any explanation whatsoever. If I message the mods of those subs, then there are only three responses: 1) no response whatsoever, 2) sarcasm and unkindness without actually assisting me, and worse 3) a permanent ban without further elaboration.
Googling “how to report abusive Reddit mods” comes up with a bunch of threads all saying the same thing: there is no way to report them. Additionally, I have encountered individuals who dismiss or deny the existence of moderator abuse within the platform. I’ve decided it’s just not worth my mental stress to put up with this circus and just start anew and keep a low profile. I’m also trying out here in Lemmy, maybe this is better.
Please be better.
The thing about Moderators is: they are humans and humans can be complete fucking idiots from time to time. Some more than others.
The only time I got into some kind of trouble with moderators on Reddit (which I didn’t actually ask for) was when I got automatically banned from the BLM sub. After commenting on a shitpost sub. Telling a Nazi to stfu. Because people from that sub trolled them once. I immediately made fun of the moderators which got me blocked.
As far as I can say, there is no such function like a autobann on Lemmy. So moderators can’t punish you for yelling at racists somewhere else. Also the moderators here are way more chill. Especially on the German front. They post, engage with users, are friendly goofs. Good stuff.
Sooooo, welcome!

Smooches 💋
Goddamn the autobans from aimlessly/ironically commenting on a post were insufferable. I was also autobanned from the BLM sub for doing something similar to you.
