I can’t post multiple images on this site which is seemingly the only other non-dead internet forum on the whole entire web. Got temp-banned for making a “threatening” joke against house centipedes. Got twmp-banned for answering an AskReddit question. Got shadowbanned for posting about my two temp bans.
For multiple images you should use an external uploader (catbox.more, imgur) then put the images in the post body using
![alt text]().I hope someone makes a pull request for multiple images in the post to Lemmy. I don’t know about other fediverse platforms.
I was banned recently, my second ban (in 15 years), for saying that I wouldn’t mind if Iran wiped Staten Island off the map. I’m not sure I need to include context, Staten Island is terrible.
My previous ban, probably a year ago, was because I said it should be okay to crash your car into people with obnoxious mods (bright lights, pop tunes, etc.).
Both bans were for calling for violence, which maybe the first ban you could argue was, but the second one definitely wasn’t. And so the part that bothers me most, and the point of the story, is that they offer a route to dispute your ban, which I did, and never hear anything back either way. I want my due process.
Weirdly, I can kinda understand how the second one is a call for violence, but not the first. You’re just expressing your neutrality towards another country’s actions. Surely they can’t expect you to have an opinion about everything.
Of course they can. Opinions sanctioned by Corporate are mandatory.
You are 1 user out of millions of other cash cows. It’s easier to permaban you and to ignore you.
Even if 10s of thousands try to revolt against reddit like they have in the past, nothing happens because 10k are easier to permaban and ignore with millions more cash cows who still walk into the barn to get milked.
I feel like the shock is more due to how quickly the site has moved to ban permanently. It may have come as a result of the increase in bots over the years.
i like when i find myself pre-banned from subreddits I’ve never been in for participating in ones they don’t like. Site is such a joke.
My account got perma-banned in December–just because I rightly called out my government for their vile-ness.
On the one hand, communities without moderation against things like credible fomentation of violence, glorification of racism, or religious fundamentalism … tend to devolve into toxic 4chan sludge (or worse, darknet sludge)
OTOH, the monolithic, authoritarian structure of centralized sites like Reddit encourages “Little Dictator” moderators who revel in their power and/or err on side of knee-jerk bans – ultimately to protect the precious shareholders and advertisers (though moderators rarely understand the incentives well enough to connect these)
If you’ve ever been banned off lemmy.ml (as I proudly have), you know that the Little Dictator mods are still on Fedi. But the decentralized nature and open protocols make it easy to “vote with your feet” (as I proudly have).

you deserve it for posting gross shit like this:
authlib.social not beating the allegations
How dare I call Hamas rapists
Wow I have seen your point, religion is a good reason to commit rape
my point is you are constantly posting about sexual assault and deflecting in defense of a genocidal ethnostate. as a result you seem to fit in well at piefed and get kicked out of spaces with any humanity.
Hate centipedes.
I saw someone get banned from r/washingtondc because they said they couldn’t wait to retire so they didn’t have to commute down there anymore.
