I got permanently banned on both my accounts from the entire site for “violating reddit TOS”.
When I submitted my appeal asking what I was banned for they immediately responded saying that my appeal was denied, but still never told me what rule I apparently broke.
10+ year old account with hundreds of thousands of post and comment karma. I was top commenter on several large subs. I had helped tons of people with things over the years in DMs. All gone in an instant because one admin decided to go on a little power trip. And there is of course zero recourse as the user. You’re just gone.
Certainly has the vibes of something like when they finally caught the pirate bay guy and then the FBI or whoever it was kept the site up just to track users who didn’t get the memo that it was compromised.
Eh. I kinda miss the more specific subs that don’t exist here. Mostly for specific video games or software. I also enjoyed answering the many many questions people would ask on certain subs. Often times it led to people DMing me and I enjoyed those conversations. Especially the ones where I helped someone get over something or work though something. Idk I like helping people.
And less important…the porn account had years and years of fantastic and specific things I had found over the years on there. Lemmy’s porn library is miniscule by comparison.

Reddit has been a shit hole for a long time now.
Is that subreddit just kept around as a honeypot?

I can’t think of a better reason
Reminds me of Something Awful’s lolocaust
At least you didn’t lose anything of value

Gotta ban you before you delete your comments
