Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.

    That’s the same here unfortunately.

    It also sucks when you’re not American, like Reddit auto-banned a load of Irish and Brits discussing stopping smoking due to the colloquial term there.

    Unfortunately all these American-based websites really force the American views and positions on everyone.

      Well that explains it. I’m not American either and I really feel like I’m being forced into their weird social war. I just want to talk about cool gadgets without some culture warrior banning me everywhere because I didn’t show the requisite fealty to whatever the current thing is.

        Yeah, one thing I hope to leave behind with Reddit is every major subreddit farming outrage w.r.t. American politics.

        It just became exhausting and made me unsub from a lot of the big subreddits. So far, Lemmy has been quite positive! It’s refreshing.

        You are showing plenty of fealty to bigotry, sinophobioa, pseudoscientific transphobia, and American notion of ‘free speech’ on web forums.

        I’m deleting a few of your comments (they’re in the modlog, if anyone wants to see) and generously giving you a 1 month ban. If you decide to come back then, or sooner with another account, I recommend posting about cool gadgets (which you don’t seem to have actually done yet).

        edit: my ban was overridden by another admin; i’m new at this and overstepped.
