Randomly got banned

What the fuck.

My Reddit account would be 4 years old next week, but for some unknown reason I got permanently banned.

I genuinely don’t understand why, but I wouldn’t be surprised if this is part of the enshittification of Reddit Inc. I’ve never posted anything hateful or doxxed someone. Just mainly discussed Dutch football matches. That’s it. I don’t think discussing football breaks Reddit rules, right?

I guess I’m disappointed, because a lot of great, niche communities exist on Reddit which don’t exist on Lemmy yet, so I now have nowhere to discuss some of my hobbies with random strangers on the internet.

Fuck Reddit and their shitty policy.

I got the same thing 9 days ago!

My work computer was changed that day to a dynamic IP and then boom, when I logged in I was banned!

Of course my appeal was denied.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.
