12 year old account got permabanned for telling a Nazi off. But even before this happened I’ve noticed how much reddit has dropped off the last few years compared to when I discovered it.

    Reddit is fucking dead. It’s like 40% Russian psyops trolls, 25% bots, 25% Nazi trolls, 5% users, and 5% admins looking for shit to ban people for

      Remember back in 2022 when Russia disconnected from the global Internet? Reddit was great that day. The amount of trolls and devisive posts plummeted and discussions were much more civil. That was when I first started thinking about looking for a different place to hang out (I had been a pretty prolific reddit commenter). Then the stuff in spring 2023 happened and I found my way here, leaving Reddit for good. No regrets for sure.

        Oh that was a golden day indeed. You were able to have a civil discussion with someone who disagreed with you and both of you had a pretty good time. Not only on Reddit but also on fucking YouTube!

        Shows you how much Russia turnes anything it touches into pure shit.

      actually you can turn that 5% admin, to AI autobanning people, becauses thats been happening since janurary.

      almost all the appeals were AI responses.
