What if I want to make an unpopular opinion on Luigi from the Super Mario Bros series?
Some of those are understandable to be banned from Unpopular Opinion because they’re actually quite popular opinions. 🤷🏻♂️
“I believe Brian Thompson was actually a pretty cool guy”
DISCLAIMER: I in no way actually think this. This is just an example of one of those banned subjects being used correctly in that sub.
Censorship disguised as moderation. This is exactly what killed reddit. You can’t have a discussion over there without getting banned, it’s just individual echo chambers who all censor and ban each other
Or maybe, its not actually an unpopular opinion!
People think they have an unpopular opinion because they do not realize everyone with the same opinion was censored.
It’s just a list of nouns and proper nouns. Depending on what your post is, it could be a very unpopular opinion! Censoring words is why I won’t ever go back to Reddit…
Or, hear me out, maybe people were tied of way too many posts in the community being about recent politics, so moderators took action on that?
It’s not a good look to be broadly banning those words, but it seems to me like there’s a reasonable and obvious expansion.
that’s easily dissuaded by no re-posts or reddits algorithm burying those. The problem was more likely because they were popular and highly engaged so they had to step in. Fucking “spez” is in there and you still feel the need to play devil’s advocate?
Hate to break it to you but reddit isn’t dead.
I still go on reddit. In a lot of ways it’s a lot worse than it used to be. It’s way more corporate. Huge portions of the site seem sanitized, often in obvious and eyeroll inducing ways. There’s also a lot less content in general. The content that does exist is lower effort, and way more repetitive.
However in some ways it’s genuinely better. The discourse is a lot less toxic than it used to be. A lot of genuine cruelty wrapped in virtue signaling that defined the site from 2018 to 2022 is either gone or greatly diminished. It’s also slightly less of an echo chamber.
I think what happened is that after the mobile apocalypse, a lot of the power users left the platform. While these people contributed a lot to the site, they were also extremely toxic people with an even more warped worldview.
The mods are a reflection of this. They are more corporate, which leads to a lot of censorship like this. However it also means that scrolling is quite a bit more pleasant.
Overall I spend more time on Reddit than Lemmy. There’s very little content here once you filter out all the outrage bait.
You may be on the wrong communities, i could waste a day here. I actually use reddit for ragebait (i just can’t quit aitah)

Can’t talk about trump, but go ahead and talk about Biden as much as you want
Then they don’t vote and NEVER figure out that they were manipulated into inaction, they were given that extra nudge to sit and stay home on Election Day.

What did you say about my mother?
I don’t see The Adjuster there 😏
Reddit mods being power tripping cucks as usual.
Luìgi Mangíone
The party of Freeze Peach has a lot of trouble dealing with people’s opinions.
What Party?
Mario Party?
the uniparty
leweegee
Green Mario sure is scary.
What about titty sprinkles
Lets be honest it’s not like lemmy is any different, just on the other side of the fence. Probably even worse.
lemmy wasnt always like this. we got the worst of reddit coming in like they invented the federal universe.
federal universe.
Did you just make that up?
Uh ok
Consider a better instance.
lol
made me giggle ngl
no u
Had me in the first half
Let them come, and also fuck reddit. You’re banned for a comment that was deleted, you can’t see what you said to determine how it violated the rules. You get one message for an appeal. Do you feel lucky? Well do you…punk!
I got banned for telling someone to crawl back in their hole because they said female genital mutilation was horrible but that circumcision was fine because it looks better.
You get one message for an appeal.
They don’t even read the appeals
They must not, I got banned for quoting eat the rich by Aerosmith and nothing with the appeal. Like that cannot be a bannable offence
They definitely don’t read them, because I got banned for making a very obvious (ridiculous) joke and I explained that in my one measly appeal message that for sure went ignored.
I got banned because I made a joke about a dead pornstar in r/entertainment
Shitty. Reddit mods can suck a fart out of my ass.
Graphic. I’d like them to French kiss my hairy balloon knot.
And around here you can see any mod removals by clicking “source”. It’s like a big red flag saying, “Read this because the mod doesn’t want you to!”
It’s much easier to just look at the mod logs then to sort through a bunch of code.
Just FYI
Sort through a bunch of code? They’re referring to a button in the UI.
