Who cares? Reddit has historically had a ton of outtages. Why even post this?
I don’t get it either. I know a lot of lemmy users have an axe to grind with reddit, but treating every temporary outage like it’s dead forever is just bizarre.
It’s like honestly delusional behavior. Just a huge echo chamber repeating the same boring shit over and over. It’s ironic because one of the reasons that people came to Lemmy was to eacape the Reddit circklejerk culture.
Yeah back when still used reddit I found myself scrolling through the comments of coping redditters on downdetector.com at least once every couple of months I swear, and I was never even that active

DAILY MAIL is a shit SHIT source.
But fuck reddit.
It’s cool you can call stuff out on here. I tried that on Reddit and got banned. Then called out the mods and got banned from the site for harassment 🤷♂️
Reddit can’t die off fast enough. It’s clearly past its prime
Reddit is against free speech and their mods get mad if you disagree with them even if you’re right.
As someone who modded a couple subs in the hundreds of thousands plus range on reddit. Most the decent mods left during the exodus. Those who stayed tended to be the powerhungry types who wanted to push a certain narrative.
Worst part was, it was all really civil I thought. Like, “Hey, this sounds like X but it might be Y”
Turns out the dude was a piece of shit, but still… While I consider myself pretty left leaning, I also like to make sure I’ve got my fingers pointing in the right direction. Call the piece of shit out for cases where they are without a doubt being a piece of shit. Not for areas where there some room for personal interpretation.
But according to some mods, we should just blast people over anything regardless of verifiability. And trying to further explain the dangers of enforcing nonsense like they’re doing is apparently considered harassment.
Their approach:
Me: Appalling the ban, stating the nuance of the post.
Mods: “No, don’t contact us again.”
Me: Huh? But this, though…
Mods: “No, contact us again and we’ll report you for harassment”
Me: I’m all for pointing fingers, but this is dangerous…
“We’re muting you now, and also reporting you for harassment”
Reddit admins: “How dare you harass the mods with civil conversation! 7 day ban!”
Me: Appealing Reddit ban, stating the only harassment thus far has been from the mods. Show me where I was harassing.
Human admin: Nope, harassment. Ban staying.
Meanwhile, conspiracy, conservative, and canada subreddits continue to exist no prob…
Reddit can’t die soon enough. It’s clear that the site is compromised big time.
