    They banned the infamous turtle mod. Not because he was a horrible and abusive mod, but because he protested Reddit’s API changes that killed third party apps. It just sends the message that as long as you align with the company, then you can abuse their users all you want.

      Most of Lemmy’s population comes from Reddit “immigrants”, so alot of people probably care about Reddit

    The wannabe tyrants of subs like OffMyChest who banned people for simply posting in another sub, regardless of context, and the fact that Reddit didn’t shit about it despite it being against their own ToS.

    Super lazy form of “moderating” to not just wait for someone to actually be a dick in your sub. Most people receiving the ban never heard of your dopey little sub until they got auto-banned for the crime of participating in an unrelated sub.

    FatPeopleHate, not because they did it, but because they promoted a woman to be in charge of it exclusively so they could throw her under the bus for it, and the sweats of reddit bought the whole thing hook line and sinker

    I made an off-color joke and got banned from reddit itself for a whole week.

    This joke was made by several other people in the same reddit post, by the way, because it was low hanging fruit due to the topic at hand.

      Talking about “Other Product” in the “Product” sub and getting banned is a tale as old as time. So obvious that the mod community is overrun with corporate accounts and their influencer subcontractors.
