There have been multiple accounts created with the sole purpose of posting advertisement posts or replies containing unsolicited advertising.

Accounts which solely post advertisements, or persistently post them may be terminated.

Yep, so much of Reddit is like that… Creating an adversarial relationship with users …and just like YouTube slowing down people using ad blockers, or games demanding people be online, it will eventually drive people away.

Death by a thousand self-inflicted cuts.

also some communities have their mods completely replaced since Reddit’s api changes, because the former mods didn’t want to cooperate

I discovered that it happened for r/piracy and it’s one of the main reasons I got to lemmy since they have a big community here

anyway it makes sense that these replaced mods hate the community, it’s the reason they are there in the first place

I haven’t been there in over a year now, but it sounds about the same as it was then.

Here on Lemmy we just defederate with horrible instances and start our own communities!

I assume op was appropriately banned but enjoys a nice out of context whine about big bad reddit

Clbull OP ,

Actually, the screenshots of the ban messages were found via a Google image search and are not me.

But yeah, Reddit has a problem with rude power mods swinging their banhammer. It’s been documented for years.
