    Worked exactly like that with their anti evil operations “team”, which I was convinced was either a LLM or some foreign labor worker with barely any English knowledge.

      Nah, it was just a collection of shitty bots and scripts.

          They were all pretty useless. There was one guy who openly admitted to abusing botnets to mess with reddit on reddit, then he got me banned, saying in a post that’s what he was doing.

          After I got banned, it took 5 days for the appeal to process and the guy who did it didn’t get banned until a month later, only after multiple reports were filed by various people (not to mention, it was cited in the appeal).

          I’m sure they turned right around and made new accounts right away too.

          Reddit is horribly managed and it’s only going to keep getting worse as far as I can tell: I’m just happy there’s Lemmy now.
