  • Lol, Reddit permabanned me and my 8 year old 500k karma account for "report abuse" after trying to report obvious bot accounts interacting in bad faith and reposting spam. Bot accounts generating "engagement" are more important to show investors for the IPO than users trying to maintain content quality, of course. How dare I report them!

    I was already gonna leave once my Reddit Is Fun quit working, but the ban only hastened my transition to something better... like lemmy! Sucks for Reddit, I generate a lot of content. Their entire app and "new" Reddit is ad infested and disgusting.
